Grammar:

• Yeah, I don't know if you like me

  ➔ Subordinating conjunction "if" expressing doubt.

  ➔ The word "if" introduces a clause that expresses uncertainty or doubt about whether the other person likes the speaker.

• Sometimes I think you might hate me

  ➔ Modal verb "might" expressing possibility.

  ➔ The word "might" indicates a weaker possibility than "may" or "will". It suggests the speaker is unsure but considers it a plausible scenario.

• Maybe you just wanna be me

  ➔ Use of "wanna" - a colloquial contraction of "want to".

  ➔ "Wanna" is very common in informal speech and song lyrics, creating a more relaxed and conversational tone.

• Sometimes it feels a bit awkward

  ➔ The use of "a bit" to soften an adjective.

  ➔ "A bit" functions as an intensifier, but it makes the adjective slightly less strong. Instead of "very awkward", it's "a bit awkward", which sounds less severe.

• People say we're alike

  ➔ The use of the contracted form "we're" which is "we are".

  ➔ Using contractions like "we're" makes the language sound more casual and conversational.

• But opposites do attract

  ➔ Emphatic use of "do" before the verb "attract".

  ➔ The "do" is used for emphasis. Without it, the sentence would simply state a fact. With "do", it emphasizes the truth of the statement.

• Maybe we're so meant to be

  ➔ Use of "meant to be" to express destiny or predetermination.

  ➔ "Meant to be" implies that something is destined to happen and that it is part of a greater plan.

• The internet would go crazy

  ➔ Use of the conditional "would" to describe a hypothetical situation.

  ➔ Using "would" suggests that this is not a real situation, but a possible outcome if they made music together.
