Lyrics
Let him turn to go, let him tell you no
Let him leave and reject you
It's coming
Anticipation of something significant
Fire in his shoes, saddest bit of news
Metaphorically describing distress or trouble
It's coming
Reiteration of the imminent arrival of a challenging situation
Circle round again, lost and found again
Repeated experience of losing and rediscovering oneself
Your story
Emphasis on personal narrative or life story
Waiting up past dark, that's your favorite part
Highlighting a favorite moment of waiting in anticipation
Your story
Reiteration of personal story and experiences
I saw you with your back turned to imaginary crowds
Observation of the person turning away from imaginary attention
I saw you with your head down, saying "nothing matters now"
Witnessing the person expressing a sense of hopelessness
You sigh
Expression of a sigh, possibly indicating resignation
Nothing to it
Assertion that the situation is not difficult
You lie
Accusation of deception or self-deception
You'll get through it
Assurance that the person will overcome the challenges
Whistle to the tune, dance around the room
Encouragement to engage in joyful activities
That's something
Highlighting the significance of an action or experience
Stand out in the rain, cry when you're in pain
Encouragement to express emotions, even pain
That's something
Reiteration of the importance of emotional expression
I saw you with your back turned to imaginary crowds
Observation of the person avoiding attention or connection
I saw you with your head down, saying "nothing matters now"
Witnessing the person in a state of despair
You sigh
Expression of a sigh, possibly indicating resignation
Nothing to it
Assertion that the situation is not difficult
You lie
Accusation of deception or self-deception
You'll get through it
Assurance that the person will overcome the challenges
You fight to stay awake
Struggle to stay conscious or aware
Your dreams will likely drive you mad
Warning that dreams may cause mental distress
But only cause you're living like
Commentary on the challenging lifestyle
One shot was all you had
Acknowledgment of limited opportunities or chances
You sigh
Expression of a sigh, possibly indicating resignation
Nothing to it
Assertion that the situation is not difficult
You lie
Accusation of deception or self-deception
You'll get through it
Assurance that the person will overcome the challenges
