“Afraid to Feel” by LF System

In this case, the party that’s being designated as the one “afraid to feel” is the addressee. And what it reads like is that he’s a romantic interest of a vocalist who, unlike him, is depicted as being ready to throw her whole heart into their relationship. The reason she’s calling him out so is because she is able to perceive that the strong level of interest is mutual. Yet she has also gleaned that, like other men she has come across, the addressee too is fearful of a real love.

So conclusively, besides for obviously being a dance song as indicative by its lyrical repetition, what “Afraid to Feel” comes off as is an invitation by the vocalist to a romantic interest, telling him not to be scared to be thoroughly smitten by her.
