Lyrics
There I sat alone in the car the weight
Feeling the emotional burden of someone's actions while being alone in a car
Of what you'd done around me
The impact or consequences of the person's actions surrounding the singer
Oh all around me
Emphasizing the pervasive nature of the effects
And with the water rushing down my eyes
Tears flowing due to the emotional turmoil
It was all that I could do, not to scream
Struggling to contain intense emotions, possibly anger or frustration
But oh, it's alright, now it's over,
Acceptance or reassurance that the situation is now concluded
Oh baby, this was the night
Highlighting the significance of the night as a turning point
And oh Mr. Moon, shines down on my home,
Addressing the moon as a comforting presence over the singer's home
It's where I belong
Expressing a sense of belonging and peace away from the person
Without you
Asserting independence from the individual causing distress
Recall, I want a recall, you are crying on my telephone
A desire for a recall or reconsideration, depicting the person's remorse communicated through a call
But oh no, oh no no no no no
Rejecting the idea or possibility of reconciliation
Bones crack and fingers blister,
Physical and emotional strain, unable to offer comfort due to personal distress
I might console you, but look at my sisters
Comparing the singer's state to the distress of others, feeling unable to provide solace
Brilliant like fireflies up in their bedroom
Highlighting the brightness or brilliance of others despite difficulties
But oh, Mr. Moon shines down on my home,
Reiterating the moon as a symbol of comfort and belonging in the singer's home without the individual causing pain
It's where I belong
Emphasizing the sense of belonging and peace away from that person
Without you
Reasserting independence and contentment without the person's presence
And oh, what can be said for this gift that has
Flown into my hand?
Reflecting on the unexpected nature of a positive development or gift
In my hand
Emphasizing the possession of this newfound positive aspect
There I sat alone in the car,
Repeating the initial setting, reinforcing the emotional weight of the situation
The weight of what you'd done
Reiterating the impact of the person's actions
Around me all around me
Emphasizing the all-encompassing effect of the situation
Oh no, no no no no
Rejecting the possibility of reconciliation emphatically
Oh, Mr. Moon shines down on my home,
Reaffirming the comforting presence of the moon over the singer's home
It's where I belong
Restating the sense of belonging away from the source of distress
Without you
Reasserting independence and contentment without the individual causing pain
And oh, what can be said for this gift that has
Flown into my hand?
Reiterating the unexpected positive development or gift in the singer's possession
In my hand
Emphasizing the possession of this newfound positive aspect
