Lyrics
I don't romanticize the things I see
I do not idealize or romanticize the things I observe
Sitting alone watching the TV
Sitting alone, passively watching television
Oh darling won't you lay your head on me
Expressing a desire for emotional connection, asking someone to rest their head on the speaker's shoulder
If they fuck with us they're gonna see
Warning that if others interfere or mess with the speaker, there will be consequences
I don't regret the things I couldn't be
No remorse for the opportunities or paths not taken in life
Stay at home, I talk to the TV
Staying at home and engaging in one-sided conversation with the television
Each morning I can feel it watching me
Sensing a psychological presence in the morning, possibly the impact of the speaker's actions or lifestyle
If they fuck with us they're gonna see
Reiterating the warning that if others interfere or mess with the speaker, there will be consequences
I don't romanticize the things I see
Reaffirming the refusal to idealize or romanticize observed things
Sitting alone watching the TV
Continuing the passive act of watching television alone
Oh darling won't you lay your head on me
Repeating the desire for emotional connection, asking someone to lay their head on the speaker's shoulder
If they fuck with us they're gonna see
Reiterating the potential consequences if others interfere or mess with the speaker
I don't regret the things I couldn't be
No remorse for the paths not taken in life
Stay at home, I talk to the TV
Continuing the pattern of staying at home and conversing with the television
Each morning I can feel it watching me
Feeling the psychological impact of external factors, possibly societal expectations
If they fuck with us they're gonna see
Emphasizing the potential consequences if others interfere or mess with the speaker
Waking up with someone new
Waking up with a new person but still thinking about someone from the past
And I still just think of you
Despite being with someone new, the speaker's mind remains focused on a previous connection
I don't regret the things I couldn't be
No regret for the unfulfilled aspects of the speaker's life
Stay at home, I talk to the TV
Continuing the pattern of staying at home and conversing with the television
Each morning I can feel it watching me
Reiterating the sense of being observed or judged in the morning
If they fuck with us they're gonna see
Emphasizing the potential consequences if others interfere or mess with the speaker
I don't romanticize the things I see
Reaffirming the refusal to idealize or romanticize observed things
Sitting alone watching the TV
Continuing the passive act of watching television alone
Oh darling won't you lay your head on me
Expressing a desire for emotional connection, asking someone to rest their head on the speaker's shoulder
If they fuck with us they're gonna see
Reiterating the warning that if others interfere or mess with the speaker, there will be consequences
Can't live in the moment
Unable to fully embrace or live in the present moment
Can't live in the moment, no
Repeating the difficulty in living in the present moment
Can't live in the moment
Continuing the theme of struggling to live in the present moment
Can't live in the moment, no
Reiterating the challenge of living in the present moment
