about
"I don't want to fall in love, so I won't this time"
This is a song about the space between - when you know you have fallen in love, but are too afraid to admit it to yourself, too afraid of getting hurt. Instead you mindlessly watch Love Island to distract yourself from your feelings. Sarah, Elias and I wrote it about a moment when me and my partner were already spending most of our time together, living in each others’ apartments, spending days next to each other on the couch. We became each other's worlds, and eventually, I was strong enough to admit it.
lyrics
Lyrics:
Reality TV:
I don’t want to fall in love, so I won’t this time
But we’ve been living in your house for days, and it feels like it’s mine
Close the windows now, it’s a one-room kind of world
Where our arguments will just slip beneath the floor
I don’t want to fall in love, I’m doing just fine
I’ll spend my life inside a torn up van with this band of mine
Screaming “windows down” – play the iPhone radio
Singing “All My Friends” when I left them back at home
But I don’t want to waste my time, reality TV inside my head
Watching life when I should live in it instead
I’m too scared to hold someone --
Are you in love? You’re not.
Are you in love? You’re not.
Cause I don’t want to fall if you’ll run --
Are you coming back? You’re not.
Are you coming back? You’re not.
Oh no I don’t want to fall in love, I think I’m done
Got 150,000 songs and I can’t finish one
But if you asked me now I’d sing “I won’t let you go”
Cause every note I write I’m afraid I’ll be alone
But I don’t want to waste my time, reality TV inside my head
Watching life when I should live in it instead
I’m too scared to hold someone --
Are you in love? You’re not.
Are you in love? You’re not.
Cause I don’t want to fall if you’ll run --
Are you coming back? You’re not.
Are you coming back? You’re not.
I don’t want to fall in love, so I won’t this time
But when I write you into all my songs, it feels like I might
Close the windows now, it’s a one-room kind of world
Where I’m falling now cause I cannot let you go
