Discover the story of the song > Never Be Ourselves – Savannah Conley

The protagonist is expressing that she is open to physical contact and affection from her partner, but warns that it doesn't take long for her heart to be broken. She also mentions that she doesn't expect her partner to understand her when he decides to leave. The chorus repeats the question of whether relationships always end up this way, where people don't want to know each other's weaknesses and they can't be their true selves.
