Lyrics

I can't wake up when you're in my bed

I struggle to wake up when you're with me physically.

I can't sleep when you're in my head

It's difficult for me to sleep when thoughts of you occupy my mind.

I know you just wanna use me

I'm aware that you only want to use me for your own benefit.

I just wish that you'd lose me

I just wish you would end our connection or relationship.


God, don't kiss me

Expressing a desire for God not to engage in a romantic gesture like kissing.

Please just take me by the hand

Asking to be led by the hand, perhaps seeking guidance or support.

Guess I'm not good enough for you

Feeling inadequate and not meeting the expectations of the other person.

You should call your other man

Suggesting that the person should contact someone else, possibly a romantic rival.


Halfway in and halfway out my life

Feeling caught between being part of and excluded from the other person's life.

I've tried to pull you in at night

Attempting to draw the person closer, especially during nighttime.

Hold you tight so you get the clue

Trying to convey affection and understanding, but facing resistance or difficulty.

But your thorns kill me when I do

Experiencing emotional pain or harm from the person's metaphorical "thorns."


God, don't kiss me

Reiterating the desire for God not to engage in a romantic gesture like kissing.

Please just take me by the hand

Requesting guidance or support through physical connection.

You should call your other man

Suggesting again that the person should contact someone else, possibly a romantic rival.


3:05, she asked me over

Referring to a specific time (3:05) when the person was invited over, potentially highlighting infidelity.

While you're home crying, sober

Indicating that while the listener is invited over, the person is at home crying and sober.

Give me the worst version of you

Expressing a desire to see the person at their worst.

I just want you to be miserable too

Wishing for the person's misery as well.


Make me feel like I don't deserve you

Desiring to feel undeserving of the person, possibly seeking emotional detachment.

Make me think that you feel better too

Wanting to believe that the person also feels better without the relationship.

You have someone in your bed

Expressing hurt upon discovering someone else in the person's bed.

You tell me he's just a friend

Hearing that the person in the bed is just a friend, possibly feeling deceived.


Wish I could forget

Expressing a desire to forget the impact of the person's touch.

Your touch on my face

Reflecting on the physical sensation of the person's touch on the face.

Smoke my cigarette

Engaging in a potentially self-destructive behavior like smoking a cigarette.

I know I'm a fucking mess

Acknowledging personal turmoil and chaos, accepting imperfections.
