Lyrics
How many wedding dresses
Contemplating the number of wedding dresses
Can you hide inside your body
Reflecting on emotional burdens within oneself
I used to think
Previous belief in the daunting nature of a situation
It was far too daunting
Reconsidering the perceived difficulty
But I'd buy you one hundred more
Expressing willingness to offer endless support
Nobody tells the truth at the store
Observation that truth is elusive in commercial settings
Especially when you're not ready
People often withhold truths when unprepared
Cos' when you left me
Referring to a significant change after a departure
Everything changed
Positive transformation following separation
Changed for the good
Acknowledging personal growth
Damn I'm so good
Confident self-assessment
Maybe you aren't bad
Considering the other person's character
Were ya trying to be sane
Questioning the intent to maintain sanity
Either way
Regardless of intent, expressing relief
I'm glad you didn't stay
Reiteration of relief and gladness for the departure
I'm glad you didn't stay
-I'm glad you didn't stay
-I'm glad you didn't stay
-How many versions of you
Reflecting on different versions of the other person
Did I have to bury
Metaphorically burying past versions of the person
I used to think you were gone already
Initial belief in the person's absence
I bled out one hundred more
Metaphorically experiencing emotional bleeding
Nobody tells you truth anymore
Noticing the scarcity of truth in contemporary times
Especially when you're not ready
Similarity in withholding truth when unprepared
Cos' when you left me
Recurrence of significant change after separation
Everything changed
Reiteration of positive transformation
Changed for good
Reaffirmation of personal growth
Damn I'm so good
Confident self-assessment reemphasized
Maybe you're aren't bad
Reconsidering the other person's nature
Were ya trying to be sane
Questioning the intent behind actions
Either way
Regardless of intent, expressing relief and gladness
I'm glad
Affirming the feeling of gladness
We all take our chances
Reflecting on the uncertainties in life
Take our time
Acknowledging the importance of time
Some of us regret it
Recognition of regret in some life choices
Some of us get it right
Acknowledging successful decisions
Aren't we all just taking chances
Philosophical inquiry about life's risks
Don't we all get second guesses
Acknowledging uncertainties and doubts
I pray to mother for your blessings
Seeking blessings from a maternal figure
I pray you got right
Hopeful expression regarding the other person's life
Hallelujah
Repetition of a religious exclamation
Hallelujah
-Hallelujah
-Hallelujah
-Hallelujah
-Hallelujah
-Hallelujah
-Hallelujah
-Cos' when you left me
Reiteration of the transformative impact of separation
Everything changed
-Changed for the good
-Damn I'm so good
-Maybe you're aren't bad
-Were ya trying to be sane
-Either way
-I'm glad you didn't stay
-I'm glad you didn't stay
-I'm glad you didn't stay
-I'm glad you didn't stay
Final expression of relief and gladness
