How best do you describe that feeling when the love is past its sell-by date? That is exactly what Tiana Major9 does on same space.
As beautiful as love is, the other side of it is bad in a measure that isn’t commensurate with love. Time and again, I have seen relationships degenerate from all love and smiles to one where both parties can’t bear to be in the same space.
One of them shows up, the other leaves. You mention the name of an ex and they respond like you just ripped a band-aid. I still find it uncomfortable being caught up in such situations.
We were taught that the opposite of love is hate. Generally, that’s true. But when it comes to relationship, the worse level things degenerate to is often indifference.
When there is hatred, you see someone get agitated or uncomfortable when their ex shows up. With indifference, it is different. Their ex shows up and they are unmoved.
To them, their ex is no different from a lampstand, or an extra “G” in lasagna. Its presence is so unmoving that its absence is never felt.
This isn’t to make you remember a love that use to be. Instead, this is to help you appreciate the one you currently love. And to do all you can in ensuring it only gets better.
Same Space Lyrics
Tainted view of us
I find it hard to see
Anything that was
Good in you and me
I hate it when you go
I’m happy when you leave
I go through withdrawals
When I draw you close to me
Is this my destiny
To set you free?
Is this my destiny
You lying here with me?
Giving the best of me, can’t you see?
I’ve got more love to share
Maybe we should stay right here
In the same space
Look for different results in the same space
How we gonna look for different results in the same space?
Oh, how if we’re in the same space?
Despite our love’s detour
I wanted you for me
I grew with your love
Who knew what it would be, oh?
Let’s bring back the days
(Let’s bring back the days)
When I weren’t afraid
Of something I could lose
(Something I could lose)
Over something I could gain
(Do-do-do, do-do-do-do)
Is this my destiny
To set you free? (Set you free)
Is this my destiny
Lying here with me? (Lying here with me)
Giving the best of me
Can’t you see? (Can’t you see?)
I’ve got more love to share (I’ve got more love to share)
Maybe we should stay right here
(Maybe we can stay, maybe we can stay)
In the same space (in the same space)
Look for different results in the same space (same space)
(How we gonna look so far?)
How we gonna look for different results in the same space?
(Oh, how? Oh, how?)
Oh, how if we’re in the same space?
Oh, how if we’re in the same space?
Do-do-do-do-do-do (Ooh)
