Lyrics
I sit in my room
I am in my room
With my left hand holding your photograph
I hold your photograph with my left hand
My right is holding the scissors
I hold scissors with my right hand
I intend to use when I cut it in half
I plan to use the scissors to cut the photograph in half
I don't need you anymore
I no longer require you
I don't need you anymore
I reiterate that I don't need you
I'll bury the box filled with half sheets of paper
I will bury a box filled with torn sheets of paper
Turn myself back in, into the earth
I will return to the earth metaphorically
I'll bury the box filled with half sheets of paper
I will bury the box again, symbolizing closure
Turn myself back in, into the earth
I will return to the earth, emphasizing the finality of the decision
I sit in my room
I am once again in my room
With my left hand holding your photograph
I still have your photograph in my left hand
My right hand is shaking
My right hand is trembling
It seems that I'm lacking the courage to cut it in half
I seem to lack the courage to cut the photograph
What if I was wrong?
I contemplate the possibility of being mistaken
And I needed you all along?
Consideration of whether I truly needed you all along
I'll bury the box filled with half sheets of paper
I will bury the box again with torn sheets of paper
Turn myself back in, into the earth
I will metaphorically return to the earth again
I'll bury the box filled with half sheets of paper
Reiteration of burying the box, emphasizing closure
Turn myself back in, into the earth
Reiteration of returning to the earth, signifying finality
I sit in my room
I am still in my room
With my left hand holding your photograph
I continue to hold your photograph with my left hand
My right is holding the scissors
I still have the scissors in my right hand
I'm currently using to cut it in half
I am presently using the scissors to cut the photograph
I was right all along
Confirmation that my decision was correct all along
I don't need you at all
I emphatically declare that I no longer need you at all
