〈I’m Not Ready, Yes You Are〉描写两个相爱，却站在不同位置的人。一个已经准备好让爱被看见，另一个仍困在外界眼光与自我怀疑之间。这段不同步的爱，化为专辑中的第二只 Monster——MISALIGNMENT。

作为专辑唯一一首邀请歌手合作的作品，CORAL 以亲身经历为创作起点，写下关系中两个人的不同感受，并邀请民谣乐团 22.5 主唱佳瑜共同演唱。佳瑜带有空气感的声线，细腻呈现另一方的迟疑与害怕。首次挑战全英文演唱，也让她在录音过程中直呼咬字与语感比想像中更有难度。

音乐以 Bedroom Pop 为基底，以贴耳的人声与如气泡般浮动的 Lo-fi Synth 营造亲密的聆听体验，仿佛置身两人的私密对话之中。歌曲后段，一来一往的对唱转为合唱。两人最后唱起相同的歌词，原本错开的心意也逐渐重叠。

I see the way you look at me
But you always turn away, you turn away
I look away ’cause I’m afraid
Of what it means if I stay, oh if I stay

Imagine wakin’ up in my arms every morning when the sun pours in, when I touch your skin
We could roam the world without askin’ permission from anyone
We hide from no one

I just want you to be you
If that’s me, then why do I break inside?
Oh it’s broken inside
Our love isn’t a crime
It sure does feel like one, the one I hide
It just don’t feel right

I’m not like you, I wasn’t born brave
I’ve spent my whole life tryna behave, oh haven’t I behaved?
Tryna fit into a world that says
“Love like this is just a phase,” oh it’s just a phase

All I want is to call you mine
All I want is a little more time
All I want is to not be left behind
All I want is a love that shines

All I want is to call you mine
All I want is a love that shines
All I want is to call you mine
All I want is a love that shines

All I want is to call you mine
All I want is a love that shines
All I want is to call you mine
All I want is to make it right
