Lyrics
Say what I know
Saying what I am aware of
Tell me what to do
Instruct or guide me on what actions to take
Cause I'll never be with you
Expressing that a romantic relationship with you is not possible
Yeah, I'll never be with you
Reiterating the impossibility of being together romantically
Turn off the lights
Turning off the lights, possibly to create a contemplative atmosphere
And I'll fester in my head
Reflecting on thoughts internally
The thing that hurts the most
Expressing emotional pain, particularly from how something was said
Is how you said what you said
Highlighting the hurtful nature of words and their impact
If I saw your tear, I'd understand
Willingness to understand if tears were visible, but affected by harsh words
But your dead tongue struck me and took me down
Being struck down by hurtful words without visible emotion
The feeling of trust
Loss of trust in the relationship
I had for you is gone
The trust once felt is now gone
Would you take back what you said
Questioning if retracting hurtful words is possible
If you could stab me in the back instead
Suggesting a preference for a physical betrayal over hurtful words
Now I won't forget, I can't forget, that I'll never be with you
Emphasizing the lasting impact of the situation on not being together
We work so well
Acknowledging a successful collaboration despite difficulties
Even when we don't want to
Functioning well together even when not desiring to
We laughed so hard
Recalling shared laughter at unconventional things
At the things most people couldn't see
Sharing unique experiences that others may not comprehend
But now you're not even here with me
Expressing the absence of the person in the present
You feel like you're dead to me
Perceiving the person as emotionally distant or unresponsive
Can somebody please help me cause I-
Seeking help due to emotional distress
Now I won't forget, I can't forget, that I'll never be with you
Reiterating the enduring impact of not being together romantically
Now I won't forget, I can't forget, that I can never be with you
Emphasizing the unforgettable nature of the impossibility of being together
Say what I know
Repeating the act of expressing what is known
Tell me what to do
Requesting guidance on actions to take
Cause I'll never be with you
Reiterating the impossibility of a romantic relationship
Yeah, I'll never be with you
Affirming the continued impossibility of being together romantically
