| Description | “Cautious” is the second single released by Darkroom Records artist, Max Leone. He revealed the song’s release date, along with the artwork on February 24, 2020 via an Instagram post. On its release day, he spoke with Billboard about the song saying, “Cautious came out a period in my life in which I was very alone. I had just moved to a new city, I was living by myself and I didn’t know anyone. I was dealing with the duality of feeling totally in control of my own emotions while simultaneously not being able to feel anything very deeply. I realized that denying myself vulnerability wasn’t, in fact, protecting me at all, and was actually making me feel even more isolated. Writing ‘Cautious’ was what led me to the conclusion that by confining my life to my own experience, I was actually missing out on the most important part of it.” |
| Lyrics | [Verse 1] I thought I had it in my pocket I close the door after I lock it 'Cause lately I've been feeling cautious And maybe that's why it's ironic That nothing ever hurts me anymore 'Cause I was sick of being miserable And now I never feel emotional I'm too afraid to lose any control [Chorus] Yeah, and it's nice to be all alone sometimes just to let it go But, lately the days have been feeling so long And maybe I don't have to be on my own But, I've been so paralyzed And lie to myself at night The head and the heart never been so opposed Meanwhile, I keep my eyes glued to the road [Verse 2] Wait a second, where'd you go? I know it's been a month or so I'll go in, wait in the car You know me, I'm never far Silence on the radio I'm not used to friends that come and go I used to keep them close I got too much safety I've been up for three weeks Someone come and save me [Chorus] And it's nice to be all alone sometimes just to let it go But, lately the days have been feeling so long And maybe I don't have to be on my own But, I've been so paralyzed And lie to myself at night The head and the heart never been so opposed Meanwhile, I keep my eyes glued to the road [Bridge] I'm so sick of being cautious (Cautious) I'm so sick of being cautious all the time Turning into something caustic (Caustic) And I don't really know what caused it, I'll be fine I'm so sick of being cautious I'm so sick of being cautious all the time Turning into something caustic I don't really know what caused it, I'll be fine You might also like[Outro] I think I'll be fine Do I wanna be fine? It seems that I'm just fine And it's fine |
