Still Want UUU

Zak Abel's 'Still Want UUU' delves into the complexities of a tumultuous relationship, where pain and affection are intertwined. The lyrics paint a vivid picture of emotional and physical turmoil, with phrases like 'broken, bruised and burned' and 'black and blue inside' highlighting the suffering endured by the narrator. Despite the evident pain, there is a paradoxical attraction to the hurt, as expressed in the line 'I like the way it hurts.' This suggests a deep, perhaps unhealthy, attachment to the relationship, where the pain becomes a familiar, almost comforting, aspect of their connection.

The chorus reveals the narrator's unwavering commitment, despite receiving little in return. The repeated lines 'I give you loving, you give me nothing' and 'You keep me falling, but I'm going all in' emphasize a one-sided dynamic, where the narrator continues to invest emotionally, even when it leads to further hurt. This persistence can be seen as a testament to the depth of their feelings, but also raises questions about self-worth and the reasons behind staying in such a damaging relationship.

Zak Abel's soulful delivery adds another layer of emotion to the song, making the listener feel the raw vulnerability and desperation of the narrator. The song captures the essence of a love that is both destructive and irresistible, reflecting the often complicated nature of human relationships. It speaks to the universal experience of loving someone who may not reciprocate in the same way, and the internal conflict that arises from such a situation.
