Lyrics

You take my eyes, but take it slow

You capture my attention, but do it gradually

And my demise is finding home

My downfall is finding its place of belonging

And someone's questions can you know

Can you comprehend the questions someone has about you?

That people are looking for something they think they lost long ago

People are searching for something they believe they lost a long time ago


Hey oh

Repetitive vocalizations, possibly expressing emotion or emphasis

Hey oh

Hey oh

Hey oh

And when the heat blows over from my head now

When the pressure or intensity subsides from my thoughts

And I see you're holding all of me together now

I observe that you are holding all aspects of my life together

For all those hours I waited for nothing

After waiting for countless hours, it seems I waited in vain

I wanted something like this

I desired something like this


Yeah, I got burned where I stand

I experienced pain or difficulty where I stand

But it was harder then than now to understand

Understanding the situation is now easier compared to the past

How to bleed until you're empty, how to open what is full

Learning how to drain oneself until empty, how to reveal what is full

But I hope I know when I am capable of loving you

Expressing hope to recognize when capable of truly loving


And when the heat blows over from my head now

Similar to line 11, a repetition of the idea of relief or release

And I see you're holding all of me together now

You are the stabilizing force keeping my life intact

For all those hours I waited for nothing

After all the time invested, it seems there was no meaningful outcome

I wanted something like this

I desired something like this

I wanted something like this

Reiteration of the desire expressed in line 24


I wanted someone

Expressing a strong desire for a particular person or connection

I, I wanted something like this

-

I wanted something

-

I, I wanted something like this

-

I wanted someone

-

I, I wanted something like this

Repetition of the desire for something like the mentioned experience


And when the heat blows over from my head now

Similar to lines 11 and 21, emphasizing relief and support

And I see you're holding all of me together now

-

For all those hours I waited for nothing

-

I wanted something like this

-

I wanted something like this

Reiteration of the desire expressed in line 24


I wanted someone

Expressing a persistent and intense desire for a specific connection or experience

I, I wanted something like this

-

I wanted something

-

I, I wanted something like this

-

I wanted someone

-

I, I wanted something like this

-

I wanted something like this

Reiteration of the desire for something like the mentioned experience
