Lyrics
Know it's gonna take some time to
Expressing awareness that moving on will require time
Walk away from everything that I used to be
Reflecting on the challenge of leaving behind one's past identity
Think about it all the time and
Continuously contemplating the impact of the past
How the past affected me
Acknowledging how previous experiences have shaped the present
But now it's time to leave
Decision to move forward and leave the past behind
I don't want you to go
Expressing reluctance for someone to leave
But you shouldn't stay with me
Advising the person not to stay in the current situation
I let you get too close
Realization of allowing emotional closeness
So stay far away from me
Requesting distance due to the emotional impact
Thought about a happy ending
Contemplating a positive outcome, possibly through imagination
Created by a fantasy living in a dream
Describing a life built on an idealized fantasy
Wishing I could find a way to
Expressing a desire to find a way to overcome pain and guilt
Forget about the agony and watch my conscience bleed
Visualizing emotional turmoil and internal conflict
(FUCK)
An expletive, possibly intensifying emotional distress
I don't want you to go
Reiteration of not wanting the person to leave
But you shouldn't stay with me
Reiterating the advice not to stay in the current relationship
I let you get too close
Acknowledging the consequence of allowing emotional closeness
So stay far away from me
Reiterating the need for distance due to emotional impact
Why don't you stay with me
Pleading for the person to stay despite previous advice
Why don't you stay with me
Repetition of the plea for the person to stay
Why don't you stay with me
Continued plea for the person to remain in the relationship
Why don't you stay with me
Repetition of the plea for the person to stay
I don't want you to go
Reiteration of not wanting the person to leave
But you shouldn't stay
Reiterating the advice not to stay in the current relationship
With me
Conclusion emphasizing the conflict of wanting and advising against staying
