Lyrical Analysis/Specific Analysis of Words

You're chatting to me, like we connect
But I don't even know if we're still friends
It's so confusing,
Understanding you is making me not want to do

And think things like:
'I know I should do'
But I trip up and then I lose
I hate looking like a fool


I just want your kiss boy, kiss boy, kiss boy
I just want your kiss
I just want your kiss boy, kiss boy, kiss boy
I just want your kiss

The lights are on
And someone's home
I'm not sure if they're alone
There's someone else inside my head
Living there too fills me with dread

This paranoia is distressing
But I spend most of my night guessing
Are we not, are we together
Will this make our lives much better

I'm not in love
I just wanna be touched

Here, when analysing lyrics of my song to interpret into my visual mis en scene and representation, I would have to look at specific words, figure out the connotations and meanings, then think how I could visually show these lyrics on screen.
The one lyrical use which stood out for me would be the repition of the abstract noun 'kiss' in the chorus, obviously will stay the same and be repeated in parrellelism as it is the chorus and main part of the song. This was definatley the focus when thinking about the theme of my song, and I began to make connotations from just this one word. i thought about scenes I could use for the chorus, such as close ups of red lips mimiking the lyrics, which connotates love and intamacy as we are getting a zoomed view of the females lips.
