Lyrics
You're in love with a drug, I'm in love with a phantom
You are emotionally attached to a substance (drug), while I am infatuated with something intangible (phantom).
You're not sober enough, when I pull up in the rental
You are not fully conscious or clear-headed when I arrive in a rented vehicle.
Too fragile to touch
You are delicate and easily harmed.
I can't give you enough
I cannot provide you with sufficient support or affection.
White lies coming in and out
Deceptive statements are being exchanged frequently.
Red eyes with the cotton mouth
Eyes are bloodshot, possibly from drug use, causing dryness in the mouth.
Feel the vibe of your body language
Sensing the mood and communication through your body's expressions.
I can't get me into your head
I am unable to understand or connect with your thoughts.
I can't tell me if you're aware
Uncertain if you are self-aware or conscious of your actions.
It's sad that you're not here
Expressing sadness about your absence.
Am I running out of time?
Feeling a sense of urgency or the fear of running out of time.
I don't take no advice, feeling sacrifice
Rejecting advice, experiencing a feeling of sacrifice.
To feel alive
To truly experience life, there is a need for sacrifice.
You're in love with a drug, I'm in love with a phantom
Reiteration of the emotional connection to a substance and something intangible.
You're not sober enough, when I pull up in the rental
Reinforcing the idea that sobriety is lacking during a particular encounter.
Too fragile to touch
Emphasizing fragility, vulnerability, or sensitivity.
I can't give you enough
Continued inability to meet emotional needs adequately.
Bad dreams, blame me, that's alright
Mention of negative dreams and acceptance of blame.
If we don't speak, ghost me every time, just know
If communication breaks down, accept that I might withdraw like a ghost.
I feel so pathetic for making you cry
Expressing remorse and empathy for causing emotional pain.
My tongue a machete when I'm paralyzed
Using words forcefully, potentially causing harm when emotionally paralyzed.
I know you're not ready but I'm crystallized
Awareness of the other person's unreadiness while feeling frozen or stuck.
Am I running out of time?
Repetition of the fear of running out of time.
I don't take no advice, feeling sacrifice
Reiteration of resistance to advice, with a sense of sacrifice.
To feel alive
Reemphasizing the need for sacrifice to feel truly alive.
You're in love with a drug, I'm in love with a phantom
Repeating the theme of emotional attachment to a substance and intangible feelings.
You're not sober enough, when I pull up in the rental
Reaffirming the lack of sobriety in a particular situation.
Too fragile to touch
Restating the fragility or vulnerability of the situation.
I can't give you enough
Continued difficulty in meeting emotional needs adequately.
