Says She Loves Me

In 'Says She Loves Me,' Aer delves into the tumultuous dynamics of a relationship marred by alcohol and emotional instability. The song's protagonist finds himself entangled with a woman who only professes her love when she's intoxicated. This recurring theme of drunken confessions highlights the unreliable and fleeting nature of their connection. The protagonist's frustration is palpable as he grapples with the inconsistency of her affections, which are only expressed under the influence of alcohol.

The lyrics paint a vivid picture of the chaotic interactions between the two. When she's drunk, she oscillates between affection and aggression, calling him names and blowing up his phone. This erratic behavior leaves the protagonist feeling exasperated and ready to move on. The metaphor of being 'stuck with this girl like wet cement' underscores the feeling of being trapped in a toxic relationship that he knows he needs to escape from. Despite the occasional moments of good times and physical attraction, the protagonist recognizes that the relationship is ultimately unhealthy and unsustainable.

As the song progresses, the protagonist contemplates moving on and finding someone new. The repeated refrain of 'She always says she loves me when we're drinkin' serves as a reminder of the hollow nature of her declarations. The song concludes with a sense of hope and possibility as he meets someone new, suggesting a fresh start and the potential for a healthier relationship. Aer captures the emotional rollercoaster of love, highlighting the impact of alcohol on relationships and the importance of finding genuine, sober connections.
