Lyrics
Quietly I wait for you
Quiet anticipation for someone
Sitting in my car
Seated in a car
We drive around like nothing new
Driving around casually, pretending things are normal
She's taking things too far
She's crossing boundaries or exaggerating
I like this place, there's lots of space
Liking the current situation with ample space for two
For two of us to sit
Space for both to sit comfortably
Reminds you of a better time
Reminiscent of a better past, no need to mention it
Don't have to mention it
Unspoken understanding of the better times
I've fallen to my knees for almost everything
Fallen for almost everything, susceptible
I'll admit it to myself
Admitting personal vulnerability to oneself
You had me wrapped around your finger like a string
Being controlled or influenced easily
I'll admit it to myself
Acknowledging susceptibility to manipulation
Patiently I wait for you
Waiting patiently for someone to complete a task
To finish what you started
Finishing a task that was started
To tell a story when
Telling a story about someone who made progress
When he got pretty far
Revealing that the progress was substantial
I used to really like this place
Used to enjoy the current situation before discovering the truth
Before I knew the truth
Realization of an unpleasant truth
I don't want to be with you
Expressing a desire not to be with someone
'Cause baby what's the use
Questioning the utility of being with that person
Baby what's the use
Repetition for emphasis: questioning the usefulness
I've fallen to my knees for almost everything
Repeated vulnerability, falling for almost everything
I'll admit it to myself
Reiterating the admission of personal vulnerability
You had me wrapped around your finger like a string
Re-emphasizing being easily influenced or controlled
I'll admit it to myself
Reiterating the acknowledgment of susceptibility to manipulation
