Lyrics
Oh
Expression of surprise, emotion, or attention.
Promise me
A request or plea for a commitment or assurance.
That's what you said you wouldn't leave
Recalling a promise not to leave; seeking reassurance.
And that ghost
Reference to a lingering presence or memory of a person.
Of you still here
The essence of the person remains, but without emotional impact.
But doesn't carry no feelings
Emphasizing the lack of emotional weight in the lingering presence.
So don't you keep me waiting
An urgent plea not to make the speaker wait for resolution or closure.
Iv tried so hard to fake it
Expressing the difficulty of pretending or hiding true feelings.
These days don't get longer baby
Time seems to pass slowly without the presence of the person.
Without you, you drive me crazy
The absence of the person is causing emotional distress.
Don't you keep me waiting
Reiteration of the urgent plea not to be kept waiting.
She said you fucking liar
A direct accusation of dishonesty or betrayal.
I know just where you've been
Claiming knowledge of the other person's actions or whereabouts.
Still wrapped up in the same bed sheets but I'm just cold instead
Describing a physical space still shared but emotionally distant.
I know iv got my problems but you've got plenty more
Acknowledging personal flaws while highlighting the other person's issues.
Got me stuck looking at the mirror replaying nights before
Stuck in a cycle of self-reflection, replaying past experiences.
So don't you keep me waiting
Repeating the urgency of not being kept waiting.
Iv tried so hard to fake it
Continuation of the struggle to pretend or hide true feelings.
These days don't get longer baby
Emphasizing the prolonged and difficult nature of the days without the person.
Without you, you drive me crazy
The absence of the person is driving the speaker to madness.
Don't you keep me waiting
Final plea not to be kept waiting.
