Ego Talking
It pains me to be this jealous
But I can't make it stop
'Cause I still hurt so be gentle, baby
Ripping the band aid off
'Cause I'd rather us both be alone for the rest of our lives
Than seeing you okay, I'm not, and it's bad for my pride
Oh
But never mind it's just my ego talking
I want you all to myself
I don't want us seeing other people
Can't we just stay this way
Brokenhearted, weak for each other
Too hurt to go look for another love
But never mind it's just my ego talking
Talking
Oh oh oh, oh oh oh
Ego talking
Oh oh oh, oh oh oh
Ego talking
It hurts to be this angry
I wanna blame it on you
Don't you move on without me
Don't wanna see you with someone new
'Cause I'd rather us both be alone for the rest of our lives
Oh
But never mind it's just my ego talking
I want you all to myself
I don't want us seeing other people
Can't we just stay this way
Brokenhearted, weak for each other
Too hurt to go look for another love
But never mind it's just my ego talking
Talking
Oh oh oh, oh oh oh
Ego talking
Oh oh oh, oh oh
Ego talking
Brokenhearted, weak for each other
Too hurt to go look for another love
But never mind it's just my ego talking
Talking, talking
Significado de la letra
La canción 'Ego Talking' de Hanne Leland trata sobre la lucha interna de la protagonista con sentimientos de celos y orgullo herido. Se siente incómoda por su actitud posesiva y reconoce que le duele ver a su pareja seguir adelante sin ella. Prefiere estar sola el resto de su vida antes que ver a su pareja feliz sin ella. A pesar de esto, sabe que estos sentimientos son impulsados por su ego y no por su amor verdadero. Anhela mantener esa conexión especial con su pareja, a pesar de estar heridos y débiles el uno por el otro. En el fondo, la canción expresa una vulnerabilidad y un deseo de preservar lo que alguna vez fue especial entre ellos.
