Lyrics
How many times has this gone on?
Reflecting on the frequency of this situation occurring in the past
Call 'cause it's just been too long
Requesting a call because the duration of separation has been extended
Say it's good to hear it's going fine
Expressing pleasure at hearing things are going well
Check that you're still featured in my mind
Ensuring that the person is still prominently remembered or thought about
Tell me what you want to hear
Asking for the preferred words or phrases to be told
And I'll play along
Willingness to comply or go along with the desired narrative
Tell me when you want me near
Willingness to be present when requested
I'll play along but only for so long
Agreeing to participate but with a limitation on the duration of compliance
Show me scars where it began
Requesting to see the emotional wounds or past experiences
And I will come with violins
Expressing readiness to provide emotional support or comfort
I don't need a clock to know it's wasted time
Acknowledging that time spent on this might not be fruitful or valuable
What's your mood ring doing now?
Asking about the current emotional state or feelings
Tell me if you want me near
Willingness to comply with the request to be nearby
I'll play along
Ready to go along with the desired narrative or situation
Tell me what you love to fear
Asking about fears or anxieties, indicating a readiness to accommodate them
I'll play along but only for so long
Agreeing to participate, but with a caveat that it won't be for an extended period
Only for so long
Emphasizing the limited duration or tolerance for compliance
Only for so long
-Only for so long
-Tell me if you want me near
Will to comply with the request to be close by or present
I'll play along
Ready to go along with the desired narrative or situation
Tell me what you love to fear
Asking about specific fears or anxieties, indicating a readiness to accommodate them
I'll play along
Agreeing to participate, but with a limitation on the duration of compliance
