Picture Us
Longing for Unseen Pictures
Lyrics
I guess you don’t get my calls
I am not getting any response to my calls.
Do you think about me at all?
Questioning if the person thinks about me.
Never off my bedroom floor (floor)
Constantly thinking about the person in my room.
Breaking rules so that you don’t ghost, ghost
Breaking rules to prevent being ignored or avoided.
Cold heart, better not cry
Warning the person about having a cold heart.
You talk to some other guy right in front of my face Dreaming of our last night
Observing the person talking to someone else while dreaming about a past night together.
Tattoos all on my mind
Tattoos are a prominent thought associated with the person.
Don’t ruin them by saying
Requesting not to ruin the memories associated with tattoos.
You don’t picture us together
Expressing hope for a future together.
But I’ve been waiting, like, forever Now you cleared the air you feel better But I don’t really feel better
Waiting for a long time, feeling unresolved even after the person clears the air.
You don’t picture, picture us
Reiteration that the person doesn't envision a future together.
Oh
Expression of emotion, perhaps frustration or sadness.
I, I, I don’t feel
Feeling emotionally distant or numb.
Why don’t you picture, picture us I, I, I don’t feel
Repeating the desire for the person to envision a future together.
(Wait)
Wait, suggesting a pause or hesitation in the emotional discourse.
I had a dream about you last night (dreaming ah)
Recounting a dream involving the person.
I called, you actually picked up this time (this time) In another life we’ll find each other at the right time
Recalling a positive interaction in the dream and expressing hope for a better time in another life.
Cold heart
Reiteration of the warning about having a cold heart.
Better not cry
Repetition of the warning about talking to someone else while dreaming of a past night together.
You talk to some other guy right in front of my face Dreaming of our last night
Reiteration of tattoos being on the mind.
Tattoos all on my mind
Repeating the request not to ruin memories associated with tattoos.
Don’t ruin them by saying
Continuation of the plea not to spoil the memories.
You don’t picture us together
Reiterating the desire for the person to picture a future together.
But I’ve been waiting, like, forever (forever na, na, ah) Now you cleared the air you feel better
Acknowledging the person clearing the air but expressing continued emotional struggle.
But I don’t really feel better
Reiteration that the emotional state hasn't improved.
You don’t picture, picture us
Repeating that the person doesn't envision a future together.
Oh
Expressing emotion, possibly frustration or disappointment.
I, I, I don’t feel
Reiteration of not feeling well emotionally.
Why don’t you picture, picture us I, I, I don’t feel (I don’t feel)
Repeating the desire for the person to envision a future together.
(wait)
Wait, suggesting a continued pause or hesitation in emotions.
“Can I see you a minute please
Introducing a dialogue or scenario involving a request to see the person.
You better wait here, I’ll be back in 10 minutes
Setting a brief waiting period with a promise to return.
Even 10 minutes is a long time to be away from you”
Expressing the difficulty of being away from the person even for a short time.
You don’t picture us together (na, na) Waiting like forever (forever na, na ah) Do you feel better?
Reiterating the desire for the person to picture a future together while waiting.
But I don’t really feel
Acknowledging the person's potential improvement in feelings but expressing continued emotional struggle.
You don’t picture, picture us
Reiteration that the person doesn't envision a future together.
Oh
Expressing emotion, possibly frustration or disappointment.
I, I, I don’t feel (oh)
Reiteration of not feeling well emotionally.
You don’t, don’t, don’t picture us
Repeating that the person doesn't envision a future together.
Why don’t you picture, picture, picture us You don’t picture, picture us
Final repetition of the desire for the person to envision a future together.
