Lyrics
Listen
Expressing a request to pay attention.
Seeing you got ritualistic
Noting that the relationship has become habitual or routine.
Cleansing my soul of addiction for now
Acknowledging an effort to cleanse oneself of addiction temporarily.
'Cause I'm falling apart
Admitting to feeling emotionally or mentally distressed.
Tension
Highlighting tension between the speaker and the other person.
Between us just like picket fences
Comparing the tension to picket fences, suggesting visible but unspoken issues.
You got issues that I won't mention for now
Implying that there are undisclosed problems or challenges.
'Cause we're falling apart
Noting that the relationship is currently deteriorating.
Passionate from miles away
Describing intense emotions experienced from a distance.
Passive with the things you say
Characterizing a passive attitude through the things said.
Passing up on my old ways I can't blame you, no, no, no
Choosing not to revert to old behaviors and understanding the partner's perspective.
Passionate from miles away
Reiterating intense feelings from a distance.
Passive with the things you say
Emphasizing passivity in communication.
Passing up on my old way I can't blame you, no, no, no
Continuing to avoid old habits and acknowledging understanding.
Listen
Repeating the call to listen, perhaps indicating importance.
Harder building trust from a distance
Stating that building trust from a distance is challenging.
I think we should rule out commitment for now
Suggesting a temporary avoidance of commitment due to difficulties.
Cause we're falling apart
Confirming the ongoing deterioration of the relationship.
Leaving
Indicating a departure, possibly to retaliate or seek balance.
You're just doing that to get even
Suspecting that the departure is a retaliatory action.
Don't pick up the pieces, just leave it for now
Advising against fixing the relationship immediately.
They keep falling apart
Noting that the relationship continues to deteriorate despite inaction.
Passionate from miles away
Reiterating intense emotions, possibly highlighting persistence.
Passive with the things you say
Reinforcing a passive communication style.
Passing up on my old ways I can't blame you, no, no, no
Maintaining a commitment to avoiding previous negative behaviors.
Passionate from miles away
Repeating intense feelings, suggesting their lasting impact.
Passive with the things you say
Consistently describing a passive approach to communication.
Passing up on my old ways I can't blame you, no, no, no
Persisting in avoiding past actions and understanding the partner's viewpoint.
Passionate from miles away
Reaffirming intense emotions and their distance.
Passive with the things you say
Continuing to describe passivity in communication.
Passing up on my old ways I can't blame you, no, no, no
Maintaining a commitment to avoiding previous negative behaviors.
