Written: April 5th, 2024 ( in 30 mins... yet I can't even complete the love songs I'm writing ☠ )
Genre: I cannot explain it tbh, but like soft-rock with a hint of pop ( but not too poppy ). Like, I have this melody in my head, it's what started the song cause I was randomly singing to myself 'No, I could never turn back to this love' when blending some juice for my mom and it became a whole thing.
This is sort of based a past experience that I imagined I would've written during the Jan/Feb/Early March timeframe of 2024 for me. However, I actually took a lot of inspiration from WEFIL. If you know, then you know. I'm not gonna spoil it if you haven't read it yet. Probably half of this was written from the perspective of going from a Heather to a Stephen. Very 'Eyes Closed' ( by Halsey ) coded.
I wrote this about really trying so hard to move on from someone who you thought was 'the one' and you spent a long time believing that they were the one. It wasn't working out though so you had to depart, and you're trying to grow accustomed to- I've literally never even been through the 'finding someone new' part so I don't even know what I'm saying lmao. It's all in the lyrics, so voila!
1ST VERSE:
To great acclaim, they say that love is the happiest place
And I guess that's true, that's how it felt with you
Cause you were home, always made me feel like I'd never be alone
Oh, but now where do I go?
When I've told myself that we've reached our dead end
And I've messed things up too much to ever patch up amends
So what's left is to further extend to what hasn't happened yet
CHORUS:
No, I could never turn back to this love
I have to adapt to this new habitat
Oh, but what if I don't want that?
At least not yet
No, I won't ever turn back
When is the lesson learned?
No, I could never turn back
Yet I always do and head right towards you
2ND VERSE:
No, I could never turn back
When I already bought a one-way ticket
Where the tracks aren't as rigid
Yet I would switch lanes
If you also hypothetically came
But I know that won't change
And I'll never make it through the freeway
PRE-CHORUS:
Travelling through a new route
I'll try and grow accustomed to this new view
But how can I when they're not you?
CHORUS:
No, I could never turn back to this love
I have to adapt to this new habitat
Oh, but what if I don't want that?
At least not yet
No, I won't ever turn back
When is the lesson learned?
No, I could never turn back
Yet I always do and head right towards you
BRIDGE:
No, I'll never turn back
No, I'll never turn back
It's crazy how I lie to myself just like that
And it's merely just delusion
When what the truth is
My heart beats for you and only you
I could say I moved on
But I didn't get so far along
Cause I always turn back
Yeah, I always turn back
I can never react right to that simple life
If it's you and the craziness that lies behind
That's always on the back of my mind
CHORUS:
No, I could never turn back to this love
I have to adapt to this new habitat
Oh, but what if I don't want that?
At least not yet
No, I won't ever turn back
When is the lesson learned?
No, I could never turn back
Yet I always do and head right towards you ( again )
