Loose Ends (feat. Syn Cole)

Lucas Estrada's song "Loose Ends (feat. Syn Cole)" delves into the emotional turmoil of ending a relationship that has run its course. The lyrics paint a vivid picture of two people who once shared a strong bond but have now reached a point where staying together is more painful than parting ways. The song captures the essence of those lonely nights and the struggle of keeping distance in a city that feels too small for both of them. The phrase "Gotta hide, gotta go missing" reflects the need to escape from the memories and the places that remind them of their past together.

The chorus, with its poignant questions, "Tell me where do I start, how do I keep us apart," highlights the difficulty of untangling their intertwined lives. The repetition of "I swear this is the last time, won't come back again" underscores the finality of the decision to part ways. The act of "tying up the loose ends" symbolizes the effort to bring closure to the relationship, to take back the memories, and to move on without leaving any unresolved issues behind.

The song also touches on the bittersweet nature of letting go. The line "We were strong till we were unstable" acknowledges the strength they once had, while "Feels so wrong to watch it all go to waste" expresses the sadness of seeing their relationship deteriorate. However, the realization that "holding on would be just as painful" leads to the acceptance that letting go is the best option. The song's emotional depth is enhanced by Syn Cole's production, which complements Estrada's heartfelt lyrics, creating a poignant and relatable narrative about the complexities of love and the necessity of closure.
