Lyrics
I saw you standing there, I wasn't prepared
The speaker noticed someone standing and felt unprepared for the encounter.
To see you again with a new friend
Expressing surprise at seeing the person again, this time with a new companion.
You're wearing my jacket, you never gave it back
The person is wearing the speaker's jacket and never returned it.
His hand is on your waist and it's more than I can take
Observing the new friend's physical closeness, causing emotional distress.
I'm cold 'cause you won't give me back my clothes
The speaker feels cold, metaphorically expressing the emotional distance due to the jacket not being returned.
Get out of my mind, you do this all the time
Expressing frustration at the constant intrusion of thoughts about the person.
I had my liquid courage, I don't know what to say
The speaker consumed alcohol for confidence but struggles to find words.
I'm resting on a porcelain pillow
Describing a state of vulnerability or fragility, possibly due to intoxication.
If I can get up from here I'll down another beer
Considering consuming more alcohol to gather courage and face the situation.
And meet you face to face
Expressing the desire to confront the person face to face.
I'm cold 'cause you won't give me back my clothes

Get out of my mind, you do this all the time

I'm sorry for how I acted
Apologizing for past behavior, indicating remorse.
And now I'm feeling spastic
Expressing an intense, uncontrollable emotional state.
I can't control, I can't control
Admitting a lack of control over emotions.
I can't control myself
Repeating a lack of control, emphasizing personal struggle.
I can't control, I can't control
Continuing to express the inability to control oneself emotionally.
I can't control myself
Reiterating the theme of lacking emotional control.
I'm sorry for how I acted
Repeating an apology for past actions, acknowledging a heightened emotional state.
And now I'm feeling spastic
Continuing to express an intense and uncontrollable emotional state.
The end is really tragic
Describing the situation as tragic, possibly due to the loss of the jacket.
Since then, I've missed my jacket
Reflecting on the aftermath of the encounter and expressing a longing for the missing jacket.
I can't control, I can't control

I can't control myself
