"Romancandy" by George Maple is a song about a complicated romantic relationship. The lyrics describe someone who is wrapped up in pretty appearances, looking for another person to take on their charm. The protagonist tries to be elusive and kind, but finds themselves stuck in a cycle of love and deception. The song suggests that the protagonist knows the secrets and lies of their partner, yet remains on the outside of their relationship. Despite being aware of the manipulation, they still can't resist the allure and temptation of this "sweet delight" or "candy." The chorus emphasizes the protagonist's knowledge of the secrets and lies, implying that their partner constantly tells falsehoods. The protagonist acknowledges being aware of this but cannot help being drawn to the excitement and pleasure that comes with this kind of relationship. The lyrics also express a desire to be closer to the partner, asking them to let the protagonist in for a while. The protagonist wants to be able to whisper and hear comforting words, longing for the partner to tell them everything they want to hear. The outro of the song consists of repetitive lines asking if the partner sees the protagonist when they see each other, suggesting a longing for genuine connection and mutual recognition in this complex and deceptive relationship. Overall, "Romancandy" explores the themes of seduction, secrets, and the addictive nature of unhealthy relationships.
