Navigating Love's Maze: BLACKOUT PROBLEMS' Kontrol Reveals the Complexities
Lyrics
She said I'm like my father,
Expressing a comparison to the speaker's father.
Well that's okay, as long as she's not like my mother,
Acceptance of being like the father but not wanting the partner to be like the speaker's mother.
We grew up together,
Highlighting a shared upbringing with the partner.
And slowly side-by-side we've become strangers.
Noting the gradual distance and unfamiliarity that has developed between the speaker and the partner.
Day in day out,
Describing the routine of daily life.
We figure out,
Working together to understand something.
How none of us,
Recognizing a lack of honesty within the relationship.
Has ever told the truth.
Admitting the absence of truthful communication.
I miss,
Expressing a sense of longing or nostalgia.
The secret knock,
Referring to a shared, intimate signal or communication method.
We used to let,
Recalling a past practice of informing each other about the state of affairs.
The other one know,
Sharing that everything used to be fine.
Everything is good.
Reflecting on a past positive state of the relationship.
You make me lose kontrol,
Acknowledging a loss of control due to the partner's influence.
We've grown up together.
Reiterating the shared growth over time.
Two hands on the wheel,
Describing a lack of attention to external surroundings.
No eyes on the street,
Indicating a disregard for external opinions or judgment.
Nothing left to be proud of.
Expressing a sense of loss regarding personal pride or achievements.
Forgot the secret knock that used to let you know,
Forgetting a once-shared private code for communication.
When I'd come home to look for you.
Expressing a search for the partner upon returning home.
Seems like I've finally found what I was looking for,
Claiming to have found what was sought, despite negative consequences.
And I let it kill me like you told me to.
Allowing oneself to be negatively affected as advised by the partner.
Come on and hit me where it hurts.
Inviting emotional pain or vulnerability.
I used to know how you lose it all,
Recalling a past understanding of losing everything.
I think I lost it,
Admitting to currently feeling the loss.
It hurts.
Expressing emotional pain or discomfort.
I was proud to know the details,
Being proud of knowing intricate details about the partner.
No one else knew,
Highlighting a unique connection based on exclusive knowledge.
I was proud of all the little things,
Expressing pride in understanding the partner's nuances.
I knew about you,
Emphasizing the importance of small, meaningful details in the relationship.
While you love the options,
Acknowledging the difficulty of making choices in love.
You hate to choose,
Expressing a dislike for having to make difficult decisions.
I was proud to know the little things,
Reiterating pride in possessing exclusive knowledge about the partner.
No one else knew.
Affirming the uniqueness of the speaker's understanding within the relationship.
