cat (trial version)

CAT is a tender yet intense portrayal of emotional distance, trust, and the longing to connect. The lyrics follow a narrator reaching out to someone who recoils like a wary cat-claws out, eyes guarded, heart closed. Past betrayals have built invisible walls, and the narrator finds himself standing outside them, waiting.
Despite the cold gaze and defensive posture, he believes in her warmth. He sees through the silence, the tension, the room filled with invisible barriers. He understands the feeling of being lost at sea, and promises to shield her from the waves, no matter how fierce.
The song explores the delicate process of emotional undressing-breaking down walls, revealing vulnerability, and learning to trust again. The narrator struggles to express his feelings in words, knowing that only closeness, like a cat purring and nuzzling, can truly bring peace.
With repeated pleas-"Don't lump me in with other men, Let your tired body rest, I believe in your warmth-CAT becomes a quiet anthem for those who love someone guarded, and who choose patience over pressure, presence over persuasion.
This is a song for anyone who's ever tried to reach someone hiding behind their claws-and waited, gently, for them to come closer.
