Lyrics
Don't you know I'm no good for you?
Expressing self-awareness of being detrimental to the other person.
I've learned to lose, you can't afford to
Acknowledging a pattern of losing and implying the other person cannot bear the cost.
Tore my shirt to stop you bleedin'
Physically sacrificing and trying to prevent harm or pain.
But nothin' ever stops you leavin'
Despite efforts, the person continues to leave without hindrance.
Quiet when I'm coming home and
Describing a silent and solitary return home.
I'm on my own
Emphasizing personal solitude.
I could lie, say I like it like that
Contemplating the option to lie about personal feelings.
Like it like that
Repeating the idea of pretending to be content with the current situation.
I could lie, say I like it like that
Like it like that
Reiterating the possibility of feigning satisfaction.
Don't you know too much already?
Warning the other person about already knowing too much.
I'll only hurt you if you let me
Expressing the potential for causing harm if given the opportunity.
Call me friend, but keep me closer
Suggesting a close relationship with a cautious tone.
And I'll call you when the party's over
Committing to contacting the person after the revelry is over.
Quiet when I'm coming home and
Repeating the description of a quiet return home.
I'm on my own
Reiterating personal solitude.
And I could lie, say I like it like that
Offering an alternative perspective on personal feelings.
Like it like that
Repeating the idea of pretending to be content with the current situation.
Yeah, I could lie, say I like it like that
Like it like that
Reiterating the possibility of feigning satisfaction.
But nothing is better sometimes
Acknowledging that sometimes nothing is better.
Once we've both said our goodbyes
Reflecting on the conclusion of farewells.
Let's just let it go let me let you go
Expressing a desire to let go and allow the other person to move on.
Quiet when I'm coming home and
Repeating the description of a quiet return home.
I'm on my own
Reiterating personal solitude.
I could lie, and say I like it like that
Considering the option to lie about personal feelings.
Like it like that
Repeating the idea of pretending to be content with the current situation.
I could lie, and say I like it like that
Like it like that
Reiterating the possibility of feigning satisfaction.
