Lyrics
Were you so strong
Questioning if someone possessed great strength.
Even alone
Asking if that strength was evident even when alone.
Do you know tomorrow
Wondering if the person understands that the future doesn't wait for anyone.
Waits for no one
Emphasizing the urgency of time, indicating it doesn't wait for anyone.
I was wishing my time
Expressing a desire for time to pass quickly.
Would quickly go
Desiring a swift passage of time.
Just like that, I’d be back
Expressing a wish to move away from past nightmares quickly.
From nightmares gone
Referencing a desire to escape from past distressing experiences.
Burned out the windows
Metaphorically suggesting a need to open up and let fresh air in.
Unbolt the doors
Symbolically referring to releasing oneself from previous constraints.
The hordes of then don’t stampede through my skull
Indicating a departure from past overwhelming thoughts or memories.
No more
Stating an end to the previously experienced overwhelming feelings.
Skipping lines, burning phone
Skipping obligations or responsibilities, possibly to find relaxation.
Just lean back, I’ll be here
Offering comfort and support to someone.
With open arms
Expressing willingness to welcome someone back with open arms.
Maybe we lost us
Suggesting a potential loss or disconnect in the relationship.
I was just too young
Feeling inexperienced or immature in handling a relationship.
I thought I knew what love was
Expressing past misunderstanding of love.
Don’t be ashamed
Encouraging someone not to feel ashamed.
Just moths through the flame
Metaphorically likening attraction to a destructive force.
Show me how to love again
Requesting guidance on rediscovering love.
More than before
Asking for more love than previously experienced.
More that before
Reiterating the desire for increased love.
I stand so straight
Expressing a newfound confidence or strength.
More than before
Expressing an increase in personal strength or resolve.
Where I’d scrunched and hunched myself into a ball
Describing a past state of vulnerability and contrast it with the current confident state.
I saved myself
Emphasizing self-preservation and resilience.
Just like you did
Comparing one's resilience to that of another person.
With wilder smiles breaking through the dark
Describing a positive breakthrough despite past difficulties.
No looking back
Resolving to not dwell on past distressing experiences.
On nightmares gone
Reflecting on moving past previous distresses.
Maybe we lost us
Repeating the idea of a potential loss or disconnection.
We were just too young
Reiterating a feeling of immaturity in handling love.
I thought I knew what love was
Reaffirming a past misunderstanding of love.
Don’t be afraid
Encouraging someone not to fear.
When the dawn brings the day
Referencing a new beginning with the arrival of a new day.
Show me how to love again
Asking for guidance in rediscovering love.
More than before
Expressing the desire for an enhanced level of love.
More that before
Reiterating the desire for increased love.
Maybe we lost touch
Suggesting a potential loss of connection or communication.
More than before
Reiterating the desire for increased love.
More that before
