Lyrics
A moment sits suspended in time what I a time I had with you
A moment sits suspended in time, reflecting on a past time spent with someone.
Living in your fantasy world, well there ain't much of a view
Living in your fantasy world, implying the other person's world is detached from reality.
I rarely stepped outside of myself, always caught up in between
The speaker rarely stepped outside of themselves, stuck between two places for their well-being.
Some place I thought was good for my health and the place I've always been
Struggling between a place they thought was good for their health and their habitual place.
So let me tell you now
The speaker is about to convey something important.
Oh, you better stop your crying
Encouraging the other person to stop crying because they seem happy.
'cause you're feeling so damn happy
Addressing the apparent happiness of the other person.
You try to make me feel like dying
The other person's actions make the speaker feel like dying.
Oh, you better stop your crying
Reiterating the need for the other person to stop crying.
'cause the tears that are running down your face
The tears on the other person's face don't have the same effect on the speaker.
They don't make me feel like dying
Despite the other person's tears, it doesn't make the speaker feel like dying.
I guess I never wanted to crash in the wave of your emotion
The speaker never wanted to be overwhelmed by the other person's emotions.
I walked away from all of the trash looking for a perfect ocean
The speaker walked away from negative experiences in search of a better situation.
But lately I've been finding myself fighting upward int he stream
Finding oneself struggling against the current, possibly in a difficult situation.
And who could tell that I'm living in hell? lord, I must be dreaming
Expressing the possibility of living in a challenging situation like hell.
Oh, you better stop your crying
Reiterating the need for the other person to stop crying.
'cause I don't listen to you anymore even when you know you're lying
The speaker no longer listens to the other person, even when they lie.
Oh, I see the story on your face
Observing something evident on the other person's face.
Stop your crying, 'cause you can't make me feel like dying
Stopping the crying because it doesn't affect the speaker.
So now the party's come to and end and to end a perfect time
The party or relationship has come to an end.
I send you love and all of the best, and all the rest is mine
Sending love and best wishes, claiming the rest for oneself.
And I'd rather sit and talk to myself after all is said and done
Preferring self-reflection over discussing what comes next.
What happens next, hey no one can tell, and I ain't tellin' no one
The uncertainty of what happens next is not disclosed to anyone.
Oh, you better stop your crying
Encouraging the other person to stop crying due to the ineffectiveness of their tears.
'cause the tears that are running down your face
Reiterating that the tears of the other person don't affect the speaker.
They don't make me feel like dying
Despite the tears, it doesn't make the speaker feel like dying.
Oh, you better stop your crying
Repeating the need for the other person to stop crying.
You ain't even trying, you better stop your crying
Asserting that the other person isn't even trying to stop crying.
