Lyrics

It's 2 AM, and I can't sleep

Expressing insomnia at 2 AM and the presence of anxiety.

I'm hanging with anxiety

Describing the experience of being accompanied by anxiety.

You never read the texts I sent

Not receiving responses to sent texts, possibly seeking support.

Because you know I'm tryna vent

Suggesting a desire to share feelings and vent, but facing resistance.


And you would never pick me up

Feeling neglected or unsupported in a relationship.

I don't know why I'm still in love

Expressing confusion about why love persists despite challenges.

You say you always think too much

Partner claiming to overthink, inviting the speaker to join them.

Come on baby then join the club

Encouraging the partner to embrace their shared tendency to overthink.


This weight is so enormous

Describing a heavy emotional burden and longing for a past self.

I miss the me before this

Expressing a desire to return to the person the speaker was before current struggles.

I'm stuck with these emotions

Feeling trapped or burdened by intense emotions.

I'm too young for this

Expressing a sense of being too young to deal with the current emotional weight.


I felt your skin from across the room

Recalling a physical encounter, possibly romantic, with the partner.

It stuck on me like a tattoo

Comparing the partner's impact to a lasting impression like a tattoo.

I smell your hair inside my bones

Associating the partner's essence with a deep, internal connection.

You speak to me in different codes

Describing challenges in communication or understanding with the partner.


And you would never pick me up

Reiterating a feeling of being left unsupported by the partner.

I don't know why I'm still in love

Expressing confusion about staying in love despite challenges.

You say you always think too much

Partner claiming to overthink, inviting the speaker to join them.

Come on baby then join the club

Encouraging the partner to embrace their shared tendency to overthink.


This weight is so enormous

Reiterating the heaviness of emotional burden and missing the past self.

I miss the me before this

Expressing a desire to revert to the person the speaker was before current struggles.

I'm stuck with these emotions

Feeling overwhelmed and trapped by intense emotions.

I'm too young for this

Expressing a sense of being too young to cope with the emotional burden.


You say you feel just like I do

Partner claiming to share the speaker's feelings, but a realization of not knowing them well.

I guess I don't even know you

Expressing a lack of understanding or connection with the partner.


This weight is so enormous

Reiterating the heavy emotional burden and longing for the past self.

I miss the me before this

Expressing a desire to return to the person the speaker was before current struggles.

I'm stuck with these emotions

Feeling overwhelmed and trapped by intense emotions.

I'm too young for this

Expressing a sense of being too young to cope with the emotional burden.

This weight is so enormous

Reiterating the heavy emotional burden and longing for the past self.

I miss the me before this

Expressing a desire to return to the person the speaker was before current struggles.

I'm stuck with these emotions

Feeling overwhelmed and trapped by intense emotions.

I'm too young for this

Expressing a sense of being too young to cope with the emotional burden.
