In "I Don't Want To Fall In Love," Amira Elfeky mourns the shift from youthful openness to guarded exhaustion after twenty-five, where giving everything only drags what remains through hell. Love now means showing skin, spilling guts, and coming undone, so she raises her fists and refuses to be a pit stop. The image of craving a touch whose kiss cuts like a wound sharpens the fear that being in love alone is worse than dying alone.
I Don’t Want To Fall In Love Lyrics by Amira Elfeky
Sun in my hair
Stars in my eyes
What happened to me when I turned twenty-five?
I give with no take
I’m smiling so fake
The colors turn grey, sucking the life from me it’s bleeding me dry
‘Cause when you give yourself
To someone else
It only drags what’s left of you through hell
I don’t wanna fall in love
Show my skin
Start again
Come undone
All I know, all I know is
I don’t wanna fall in love
Spill my guts
Pull me in
Fuck me up
No, I don’t wanna fall in
I don’t wanna fall
Deeper and deeper
Into the hole that I’m digging
I don’t wanna be a pit stop
Guard my heart with my fists up
I don’t wanna be a bitch but
When you give yourself
To someone else
It only drags what’s left of you through hell
I don’t wanna fall in love
Show my skin
Start again
Come undone
All I know, all I know is
I don’t wanna fall in love
Spill my guts
Pull me in
Fuck me up
No, I don’t wanna fall in
Strip the skin from my bones
Steal the light from my soul
I’d rather die alone
Than be in love alone
When you crave someone’s touch
But their kiss is a cut
I’d rather die alone
Than be in love alone
Than be in
I don’t wanna fall in love
Show my skin
Start again
Come undone
All I know, all I know is
I don’t wanna fall in love
Spill my guts
Pull me in
Fuck me up
No, I don’t wanna fall in
No, I don’t wanna fall in
