[Verse 1]
How can I say that I love you
When you haven't even looked my way?
How can I say that I need you
When you haven't even noticed me?
[Pre-Chorus]
You're my number one fantasy
Stuck in my head everyday
Thinking about all the things that we could be
I'm your number one tragedy
Fucked up in my head in everyway
You are the only thing that could rescue me
[Chorus]
It's a fiction, I'm living in a dream
Heart right on my sleeve
I need affection, love is my disease
Be my remedy
How I would like to get to know you little better
When I explore your deeper layers
I'd like to know you little better
Peel off your layers one by one
[Verse 2]
How can I say I adore you
When I can't even give myself to speak?
How can I say that I want you
Without making you think I'm a freak?
[Pre-Chorus]
You're my number one fantasy
Stuck in my head everyday
Thinking about all the things that we could be
I'm your number one tragedy
Fucked up in my head in everyway
You are the only thing that could rescue me
[Chorus]
It's a fiction, I'm living in a dream
Heart right on my sleeve
I need affection, love is my disease
Be my remedy
How I would like to get to know you little better
When I explore your deeper layers
I'd like to know you little better
Peel off your layers one by one
[Post-Chorus]
Ooh, a deeper layer, baby
[Bridge]
It's self-affliction, I need affection
Oh, how I'd like to know you a little better, baby
Hear my conviction, I crave connection
Oh, how I'd like to show you a deeper layer, baby
[Chorus]
It's a fiction, I'm living in a dream
Heart right on my sleeve (oh, baby love)
I need affection, love is my disease
Be my remedy (oh, baby love)
How I would like to get to know you little better
When I explore your deeper layers
I'd like to know you little better
Peel off your layers one by one
Layers was written by Victoria Voss.
Layers was produced by BUSTGAARD.
Victoria Voss released Layers on Fri Sep 07 2018.
We all tend to be quick to judge one another, and this song is about feeling misunderstood without people even really trying to get to know you at depth. There are so many layers to a personality, and that is something that this song celebrates.
