#47 | change
There are so many songs about wanting to change for someone. In my opinion, it's ok to change for love. Change can be growth, too. It's only when change is solely prompted by desperation or is too one-sided that things become desperate and untenable.
I'll Change For You - Mitski:
I'll do anything
for you to love me again
if you don't like me now
I will change for you
I'll change for you
Au Pays du Cocaine - Geese:
you can change
baby, you can change
and still choose me
like a sailor in a big green boat
like a sailor in a big green coat
you can be free
you can be free
just come home, please
Fake Plastic Trees - Radiohead:
it wears me out
and if I could be
who you wanted
if I could be
who you wanted
all the time
Changes - Justin Bieber (lol):
I just wanna be the best of me
even though sometimes we might disagree
so that I can be the best for you
that's all I wanna do
I'm going through changes
I'm going through changes
though I'm going through changes
don't mean that I'll change \
^ in all seriousness, I do find this song interesting because of how it utilizes repetition. various interpretations: you can grow for the person you love, but deep down, you'll always be the same. or maybe that change is never permanent? if you try to be xyz for someone, that doesn't mean you'll be that way forever.
