Lyrics
I can't help loving you
I have strong feelings of love towards you that I cannot control.
I don't know if you feel the same
Uncertain if you reciprocate the same feelings.
What should I do should I stay should I stay?
Contemplating whether to continue the relationship or leave.
I'mma love so hard until there's an X by your name
I will love intensely until you are no longer part of my life (X by your name).
You're leaving a permanent scar put out the cigarette flame
Your departure leaves a lasting emotional impact like a scar.
You wanna drive your car with me in the lane
You want to share experiences, such as driving together.
And I just wanted you since the first day
I have desired you since our initial encounter.
They say times change and people move on
People and circumstances change over time.
This will be my last day so will you comfort my mom?
This may be my final day, so will you provide comfort to my mother?
And I ain't had lovers stay they're all long gone
Previous lovers have not stayed in my life.
Right off of Lover's Lane can you hold my arms
Referencing a location, "Lover's Lane," asking for emotional support.
I said it's a bipolar repetitive loop
Describing a repetitive and fluctuating emotional state.
And I know what I said it was f**ked up when I was with you
Acknowledging past mistakes and acknowledging the dysfunction during the relationship.
When we first kissed all of my dreams came true
The first kiss marked a significant and positive moment.
It's a hit or miss will you say it back if I say I love you
Uncertain response to an expression of love.
Skeletons hang in my closet got me f**ked up
Past issues and regrets are haunting and affecting current emotions.
I had to shut them all away when dad got locked up
Had to cope with personal issues when the father faced legal troubles.
And if I see one of them pills again don't know if I'll pop 'em
Fearful of relapsing into negative habits, particularly with pills.
Don't know if I'll ever feel love again if I have lost us
Doubts about experiencing love again after potential loss.
Cause when I heard that you were with him
Emotional distress upon learning about the person being with someone else.
I was with the third girl locked away in my basement
Reference to a difficult personal situation or past actions.
I have to act like I don't care but really I do
Masking true feelings while caring deeply.
Cause if you don't move on soon I might move too
Concern that if the person doesn't move on, the singer may also move on.
I'mma love so hard until there's an X by your name
Reiteration of the intense love and potential separation.
You're leaving a permanent scar put out the cigarette flame
Repeating the lasting emotional impact of the person's departure.
You wanna drive your car with me in the lane
Reiteration of the desire to share experiences, like driving together.
And I just wanted you since the first day
Reiterating the longing for the person since the beginning.
They say times change and people move on
Reiterating the inevitability of change and people moving on.
This will be my last day so will you comfort my mom?
Repeating the potential finality of the day and the request for comfort for the mother.
And I ain't had lovers stay they're all long gone
Reiteration that past lovers have not remained in the singer's life.
Right off of Lover's Lane can you hold my arms
Repeating the reference to "Lover's Lane" and the desire for emotional support.
