Lyrics
Divide like rumors we are made from
Symbolic division resembling rumors in our nature
Facing me with your back to the window
Confrontation with someone turning away, possibly avoiding or ignoring
Divide like minerals inside us
Internal divisions akin to minerals within ourselves
And under a lens you can almost see
Under scrutiny, details become visible as if magnified under a lens
You don't have to spend all of that money on me baby
Encouraging not to spend extravagantly, suggesting simplicity in love
You don't have to spend all of that money on me baby
Repetition emphasizing the message of not needing excessive spending
Divide like consequences reaching out beyond us
Further exploration of consequences and their division extending beyond individuals
Stay close to me because our lives are cheap
Staying close due to the fragility or cheapness of life
You don't have to spend all of that money on me baby
Reiteration of the message to avoid unnecessary expenses in love
You don't have to spend all of that money on me baby
Repeated emphasis on not spending excessively, reinforcing the theme
Be the tear that washes out the eye
Encouraging to be a cleansing force, like a tear that washes away negativity
Be the tear that washes out the eye
Repetition of the idea of being a purifying force, perhaps in relationships
You don't have to spend all of that money on me baby
Continued advice on not overspending in the context of relationships
You don't have to spend all of that money on me baby
Reiteration of the message regarding avoiding unnecessary expenditures
Be the tear that washes out the eye
Encouragement to be a transformative force, like a tear cleansing the eye
Be the tear that washes out the eye
Repetition of the idea of being a transformative, cleansing influence
