Too Much

LP's song 'Too Much' delves into the complexities of an intense emotional connection that feels both essential and overpowering. The lyrics express a deep yearning for someone who is seen as everything the protagonist wants, yet the intensity of these feelings becomes too much to handle. The repeated line 'Too much, too much will never be enough' encapsulates the paradox of desiring closeness while simultaneously needing to escape the overwhelming nature of the connection.

The song's narrative suggests a struggle with the desire to rewind time and the acceptance that the feelings are not just a fleeting phase. This internal conflict is further complicated by the protagonist's awareness of the potential to hurt others, possibly due to the intensity of their emotions or a situation where their affection might not be appropriate or reciprocated. The imagery of turning to dust if they look back speaks to the fragility of the protagonist's state and the fear of being consumed by their emotions.

Musically, LP is known for blending indie rock and pop with heartfelt, introspective lyrics. 'Too Much' is a testament to LP's ability to convey the depth of human emotion through music. The song's haunting melody and LP's distinctive voice add to the sense of urgency and poignancy, making the listener feel the weight of the emotions being sung about. The song resonates with anyone who has experienced love that is as confounding as it is compelling, highlighting the fine line between passion and pain.
