Lyrics
It’s golden hour with you
Expressing a special moment, possibly a time of warmth or intimacy.
You twist my words with a broken tongue you use

Honey don’t talk, don’t say

Don’t make me sad, just kiss me and we’ll stay
Desire for emotional connection through physical intimacy.
Third time’s a charm you said
Referring to the belief that the third attempt at something is lucky.
Standing here, cheeks all stained with tears
Presenting a scene of emotional vulnerability with tears on the cheeks.
All that’s left of me on you is a lipstick smear but
Symbolizing a faded relationship with only a lipstick smear left as a memory.
Sometimes I don’t like myself that much
