Lyrics

Take a photo of my face let me see if I don't hate it as much

Questioning self-perception, seeking validation of one's appearance

Make me remember your name, let me see if I miss your touch

Seeking to recall a past connection or relationship

Hang me on a thread I can be your puppet

Willingness to be controlled or manipulated

Every wish is my command just to make you think I'm worth it

Willing to fulfill desires to prove self-worth

Some people are a mess but I'm taking my heart back

Reclaiming control of emotions from a chaotic situation

A twisted gift from you and you can keep your heart break

Rejecting an emotionally damaging offering or gesture

And I will keep my memories under my bed

Keeping painful memories hidden

Show me something that's like Brand New

Desiring something new or different

You set me on fire and made me watch it burn

Feeling consumed by someone's actions, forced to witness own destruction

You set me on fire but will you never tire will I never learn

Questioning the cycle of pain and whether there will be change or learning

I lived under your raincloud and heaven knows that I got wet

Enduring hardships caused by someone, metaphorically represented by rain

The rain didn't put out the fire you started and no you're not done yet

The adverse effects continue despite initial challenges

Photos of you are scattered but I can't see them in the dark

Struggling to see positive aspects or memories in a dark situation

I miss you like I miss the pain and that's what tears me apart

Missing the familiarity of pain, causing inner conflict

When you dodge a bullet you fall, it hurts you end up bruised

When avoiding a dangerous situation, there might still be pain and consequences

But the scars fade and it goes away when you realise you didn't lose

Realization that surviving a crisis leads to healing and growth

Some people are a mess but I'm taking my heart back

Reclaiming autonomy from emotional turmoil

A twisted gift from you and you can keep your heart break

Rejecting the emotional turmoil caused by someone else

And I will keep my memories under my bed

Keeping haunting memories hidden from sight

Show me something that's like Brand New

Seeking novelty or freshness in experiences

You set me on fire and made me watch it burn

Feeling consumed by someone's actions, forced to witness own destruction (repeated)

You set me on fire but will you never tire will I never learn

Questioning the cyclical nature of pain and learning (repeated)

I lived under your raincloud and heaven knows that I got wet

Enduring hardships caused by someone, metaphorically represented by rain (repeated)

The rain didn't put out the fire you started and no you're not done yet

The adverse effects continue despite initial challenges (repeated)

Some people get lost in the fire

Some succumb to challenges while others grow stronger from them

Some people are built from it

Some individuals are shaped and strengthened by adversity

And now is the point you find out

A pivotal moment of self-discovery and defining one's future self

Who you'll be at the end of this

Questioning personal growth or transformation through challenges

Tell my what breaks my heart

Desire to understand what causes pain

Tell me what builds my dreams

Seeking to identify what motivates and inspires

Yes you touched my skin

Physical contact without emotional connection

But there was nothing in between

Lack of emotional depth despite physical proximity

Let things simmer or they'll burn

Warning against letting situations escalate to destructive levels

Set me on fire watch me learn

Being pushed to the limits to learn and grow

Let things simmer or they'll burn

Warning against allowing situations to become destructive (repeated)

Set me on fire watch wait your turn

Being tested or challenged, waiting for one's turn to learn and grow

Let things simmer or they'll burn

Warning against allowing situations to become destructive (repeated)

Set me on fire watch me learn

Being pushed to the limits to learn and grow (repeated)

You set me on fire and made me watch it burn

Feeling consumed by someone's actions, forced to witness own destruction (repeated)

You set me on fire but will you never tire will I never learn

Questioning the cyclical nature of pain and learning (repeated)

I lived under your raincloud and heaven knows that I got wet

Enduring hardships caused by someone, metaphorically represented by rain (repeated)

The rain didn't put out the fire you started and no you're not done yet

The adverse effects continue despite initial challenges (repeated)

No you're not done yet

Recognition that the situation is ongoing, the turmoil persists

No you're not done yet

Acknowledgment that the turmoil caused by someone is not finished

The rain didn't put out the fire you started and no you're not done yet

Reiterating the ongoing turmoil caused by someone's actions
