Lyrics
I'm not the person down the block
I identify as someone different from the person nearby.
I'm not the kid you like a lot
I am not the person you are fond of.
I drive five-hundred miles a week
I travel a considerable distance weekly (possibly metaphorical).
I count my words, I hate to speak
I carefully choose my words and avoid speaking much.
I remember seeing you in dreams
I recall encountering you in dreams.
Trying to understand what this sadness means
I attempt to comprehend the meaning of sadness.
I hate the way I feel confused
I dislike feeling perplexed or uncertain.
Like I'll always be a part of you
I feel a lasting connection to you.
You were such an idol
You held a significant place in my admiration.
Yeah, you were the whole world
You were my entire world.
Now, you see, you look pretty broken
Now, you appear to be emotionally shattered.
Pretty broken
This brokenness is emphasized.
I'm not a dreamer in their prime
I don't indulge in idealistic dreams.
I'm consistently not worth your time
I consistently feel unworthy of your time.
Sometimes I feel so far away
At times, I feel emotionally distant.
It's hard to think I'll ever stay
It's challenging to believe I'll ever remain close.
There was a person I once knew
There was a person from my past.
He built a molehill out of glue
This person constructed something fragile.
He claimed I was too close to stick
He suggested I was too close, but I'm still entangled.
But somehow I'm still stuck in it
I remain stuck in the situation.
You were such an idol
You were once highly admired.
Yeah, you were the whole world
You were everything to me.
Now, you see, you look pretty broken
Now, your emotional state appears significantly damaged.
Pretty broken
This brokenness is reiterated.
Pretty broken
This brokenness is emphasized again.
Pretty broken
This brokenness is emphasized once more.
