Lyrics

And I wish you could stay, cause I know how this fades away.

The speaker desires for someone to remain present because they understand that things eventually diminish or end.

In time beside the cold, I find you in trouble.

Over time, when facing difficulties, the speaker finds the person they care about in distress or facing problems.

And to be the one I love the most.

The speaker expresses a deep emotional connection, considering this person the most beloved.

We've wasted time.

Time has been wasted.

We've said ""I'll write"".

Promises have been made to communicate ("I'll write") but might not have been fulfilled.

We'll find the cure, if we can hold on.

Despite challenges, the hope is to find a solution if they can persevere.

Holding on is the hardest part when your body could lie beneath the dirt.

It's difficult to hold on when the person you care about might be dead ("beneath the dirt").

Blame, it's always on the inside.

Responsibility or fault is often internalized or attributed to oneself.

It's in my heart, stuck in my head.

Feelings of blame or responsibility are deeply ingrained in the speaker's emotions and thoughts.

And to feel in my heart, maybe my love slipped away.

The speaker wonders if their love has disappeared or faded away.

In the deepest part, I'm finding grey.

They are experiencing emotional numbness or a lack of clarity ("finding grey") in the deepest parts of themselves.

You don't have to find another one, cause I'm right here.

The speaker reassures that there's no need to seek someone else's love because they are present and available.

Now will our love remain?

Questioning whether their love will endure or persist.

Blame, it's always on the inside.

Reiteration of how blame tends to originate internally.

It's in my heart, stuck in my head.

Similar to line 9, feelings of blame are deeply entrenched within the speaker.

Contriving fear, I let it guilt me.

Creating fear within oneself and allowing it to cause feelings of guilt.

Forgive my heart if I let it remain.

Asking for forgiveness if the speaker allows their heart to remain burdened.

If I can protect you and keep you near, will that repair all of my distant days?

Expressing a desire to protect and keep the person close, questioning if that can make up for past times of emotional distance.

You don't have to find another one, cause I'm right here.

Reiteration that the speaker is present and available, so there's no need for the person they care about to search for another.

Now will our love remain?

Repeating the query about the endurance of their love.

Blame, it's always on the inside.

Reaffirming the idea that blame often stems from within.


It's in my heart, stuck in my head.

Reiteration of feelings of blame or responsibility deeply embedded in the speaker's emotions and thoughts.

Contriving fear, I let it guilt me.

Similar to line 16, creating fear within oneself and allowing it to cause feelings of guilt.

Forgive my heart if I let it remain.

Requesting forgiveness if the speaker allows their heart to remain burdened.

Holding on is the hardest part when your body could lie beneath the dirt.

Restating the difficulty of holding on when the person you care about might be dead ("beneath the dirt").

Holding on is the hardest part when all I can see is how I've hurt you.

Emphasizing the struggle of holding on when the speaker is aware of the pain they've caused the person they care about.

And I wish you could stay, cause I know how this fades away.

Similar to line 1, expressing a wish for the person to stay because the speaker knows that things eventually fade or end.
