Only Want You

Anna Tsuchiya's song 'Only Want You' delves into the raw and vulnerable emotions of longing and the desire for genuine connection amidst a world filled with superficiality. The lyrics paint a picture of a town where people hide behind facades, losing their true selves in the process. Tsuchiya challenges this norm, expressing a yearning to break down these walls and be accepted for who she truly is, even if it means facing rejection. This sentiment is encapsulated in the lines, 'There's no need to buildup walls / There's no need to hide, who cares? / If they don't like you, right now.'

The chorus reveals a deep, almost desperate need for a specific person's love and acceptance. Tsuchiya's plea, 'Only want you to wet my dry lips / Only want you to warm this dead body,' is a powerful metaphor for her emotional and physical thirst for connection. The repetition of these lines underscores the intensity of her desire. She acknowledges her own weaknesses and vulnerabilities, admitting that she needs this person to help her accept them. This raw honesty is a stark contrast to the superficiality she criticizes in the opening lines.

Throughout the song, there is a recurring theme of regret and sorrow over past actions and words. Tsuchiya reflects on the pain she has caused and the misunderstandings that have arisen, as seen in the lines, 'I hunter you when we fought / But truly my heart was rioted / My big bad mouth got offensive / And made you sad but truly.' This introspection adds depth to her longing, as she not only desires love but also seeks redemption and understanding. The song concludes with a bittersweet acknowledgment of the end of a relationship, yet the love remains true, highlighting the complexity of human emotions and the enduring nature of genuine affection.
