Do you roll with the waves?
Or do you duck into deep blue safety?
Is it always the same?
Do you wish that you loved me?

Do you pull at the chains?
Or do you push into constant aching?
Each and every day
Do you wish that you loved me?

Is there something you give
That you will never receive in return?
Do you know what it is?
Do you wish that you loved me?

Are you trying to live
Like everything is a lesson to learn?
Can you ever forgive? (Yourself)
Do you wish that you loved me?

And my reflection just won't smile back at me like I know it should
And I would turn into a stranger in an instant if I could
And there is something eating me alive, I don't know what it is
Maybe not that you conceal your feelings, they just don't exist

Do you ever believe
That we can turn into different people?
It's getting harder to be (myself)
Do you wish that you loved me?

Could we ever release?
Is it better to just not feel?
Can we hit delete?
Do you wish that you loved me?

And it's been so long that I'm forgetting what it feels like
But I'd rather not remind myself and leave it all behind
And I've tried so hard to fix it all but nothing seems to help
But I cannot hope to give you what I cannot give myself

Do you wish that you loved me? (Smile back)
Do you wish that you loved me? (At me)
Do you wish that you loved me? Oh, whoa
Do you wish that you loved me? (Delete)

Do you wish that you loved me? (Smile back)
Do you wish that you loved me? (At me)
Do you wish that you loved me? Oh, whoa
Do you wish that you loved me?

    Song Meaning

    Do You Wish That You Loved Me? is the ninth track from Sleep Token’s third album release, Take Me Back to Eden.

    A perspective shift across the album narrative, the song lyrically progresses from a state of obsession and guilt into a track that spans a unique melodic and lyrical shift, a seeming “resolution” of comfort, seeing Vessel observing the time passed between the albums, and begging the worth of self hatred living vicariously through an idyllic lens, contrasting the acceptance and worth of moving on.
