Fix It To Break It

Clinton Kane's 'Fix It To Break It' delves deep into the emotional turmoil of a failing relationship. The song captures the essence of longing and the painful realization that sometimes love isn't enough to keep two people together. Kane's lyrics are a poignant reflection on the moments of joy and laughter that once defined the relationship, now overshadowed by the pain of its disintegration. The lines 'Remember that time I made you laugh / I would give in to hear that sound again' evoke a sense of nostalgia and loss, highlighting the contrast between past happiness and present sorrow.

The recurring question, 'Am I just fixing it just to break it?' underscores the futility and cyclical nature of their efforts to salvage the relationship. This metaphor suggests that their attempts to mend the relationship only lead to further damage, creating a vicious cycle of hope and despair. The imagery of 'pulling you close, but pushing me further' and 'holding it back, that I see you different' illustrates the internal conflict and emotional distance that has grown between them. Kane's struggle to maintain the relationship, despite feeling unfulfilled and unappreciated, is a powerful commentary on the sacrifices and self-inflicted pain often endured in the name of love.

The repeated refrain 'I need more' serves as a poignant declaration of Kane's realization that he deserves better. It signifies a turning point where he acknowledges that the relationship, despite their efforts, cannot meet his emotional needs. The song's narrative arc, from reminiscing about happier times to confronting the harsh reality of their situation, resonates with anyone who has experienced the heartache of a love that couldn't withstand the test of time. Kane's raw and honest portrayal of this emotional journey makes 'Fix It To Break It' a deeply relatable and moving piece.
