Lyrics

She didn't have to walk away, no

Expressing regret or surprise about someone leaving without necessity.

But then again they never stay (oh)

Suggesting a pattern of people not staying in relationships.

The women in my life get so pissed

Describing dissatisfaction from women in the speaker's life.

For simple things I can't resist

Acknowledging a weakness for simple pleasures that cause issues.

She didn't have to walk away, no

Reiterating the departure of someone without apparent reason.

But then again they never stay (oh)

Highlighting the commonality of people not staying in relationships.

The women in my life get so pissed

Repeating the theme of dissatisfaction from women in the speaker's life.

For simple things I can't resist

Reemphasizing the allure of simple things causing problems.

Some of these vows I've made to be broken

Acknowledging the speaker's inclination to break certain promises.

Some of these lines are meant to be blurred

Recognizing the intentional ambiguity or uncertainty in certain statements.

Some of these nights I'd exchange for a morning

Expressing a willingness to trade some nights for mornings.

I'm not starving, I take what I prefer

Asserting contentment with what is available rather than deprivation.

She didn't have to walk away, no

Reiterating the departure of someone without apparent reason.

But then again they never stay (oh)

Highlighting the commonality of people not staying in relationships.

The women in my life get so pissed

Repeating the theme of dissatisfaction from women in the speaker's life.

For simple things I can't resist

Reemphasizing the allure of simple things causing problems.

She didn't have to walk away, no

Reiterating the departure of someone without apparent reason.

But then again they never stay (oh)

Highlighting the commonality of people not staying in relationships.

The women in my life get so pissed

Repeating the theme of dissatisfaction from women in the speaker's life.

For simple things I can't resist

Reemphasizing the allure of simple things causing problems.

Some of these vows are meant to be broken

Acknowledging the speaker's inclination to break certain promises.

Some of these lines are meant to be blurred

Recognizing the intentional ambiguity or uncertainty in certain statements.

Some of these bones I've lent to a surgeon

Indicating a willingness to undergo surgery or change for a relationship.

Last through the fall I'll show you where it hurts

Predicting enduring pain and expressing a willingness to reveal vulnerabilities.

Last through the fall I'll show you where it hurts

Repeating the idea of enduring pain and revealing vulnerabilities.

For simple things I can't resist

Reiterating the allure of simple things causing problems.

For simple things I can't resist

Reemphasizing the allure of simple things causing problems.

For simple things I can't resist
