The lyrics of Erik Hassle's song "Ready For You" depict a sense of longing and heartbreak. The narrator is in a state of intoxication, feeling the need to reach out to someone they miss deeply. They are unable to move on from the memories and the taste of the person's lips. The line "Since that night you walked out the door, must remember to sleep, must remember to eat, that night ain't coming no more, that's the way it is" suggests that the person they yearn for left them, causing them to lose their sense of self-care and stability. The chorus highlights the narrator's readiness and willingness to be with the person they miss, but they are left alone in the midst of cheerful faces that they cannot connect with. They express a desire to meet in the comfort of their own home, as they have nowhere to sleep and no money to eat. The lyrics convey a sense of despair and the feeling that the person they miss doesn't care about their current state. Overall, "Ready For You" revolves around the pain of longing for someone who has left, resulting in a state of emotional instability and a desperate desire for their return.
