Lyrics

You won't believe me when I tell you

You may find it hard to believe what I'm about to share.

That my whole life has fallen apart

My entire life is in disarray or has fallen apart.

And I can't wait for you to pick up all the pieces

I eagerly anticipate you helping me gather the broken pieces and restoring them to my embrace.

And place them back into my arms

Placing the pieces back into my arms symbolizes healing and support.

But I'm still strong enough to hold it

Despite the challenges, I am resilient enough to endure and handle the situation.

I run and spin out in the night

I engage in activities like running and spinning during the night, possibly as a coping mechanism or distraction.

And when I write these letters to my family

Expressing my feelings through letters to my family, assuring them that everything is fine.

I tell them everything's alright

Maintaining a facade of normalcy despite the internal struggles.


But I can't wait

I cannot wait for a specific event or time.

For the summertime

Anticipation for the summertime, possibly a metaphor for a hopeful or brighter period.

Where I dreamt I'd thaw myself out on my lawn

Envisioning a scenario where I find solace or healing by thawing myself out on my lawn.

And I can't hope

I lack the ability to hope or have positive expectations.

Because I'm older now

Due to aging, I face challenges or obstacles that hinder my ability to hope.

That one day I'd feel your lips upon my tongue

A desire for an intimate connection, symbolized by feeling someone's lips upon my tongue.

So I wait out

I endure or persist through a challenging situation.

On my lawn

Continuing to wait or endure difficulties while on my lawn.


I tried to tap back into magic

Attempting to reconnect with a sense of wonder or enchantment.

I dream it hits me like a wave

Hoping for a powerful and transformative experience, akin to being hit by a wave of magic.

I threw my body into the ocean

A metaphorical act of surrendering to the unknown, throwing oneself into the metaphorical ocean.

And hope it takes me far away

Anticipating that this act will lead to a significant, positive change or distance from current troubles.


But I can't wait

Similar to line 10, expressing impatience for a specific time, in this case, summertime.

For the summertime

Reiterating the anticipation for summertime and the associated thawing or healing process.

Where I dreamt I'd thaw myself out on my lawn

Repetition of the concept of waiting or enduring challenges on the lawn during summertime.

And I can't hope

Reiteration of the inability to hope due to the challenges of aging.

Because I'm older now

Restating the desire for a meaningful connection, emphasizing the physical aspect of feeling lips upon the tongue.

That one day I'd feel your lips upon my tongue

Repeating the idea of waiting or enduring difficulties on the lawn while longing for a connection.

So I wait out

Continuing to endure challenges while waiting on the lawn.

On my lawn

Final repetition of the act of waiting or enduring difficulties on the lawn.
