Lyrics
Maybe I should learn to give up
Contemplating the idea of giving up
Sometimes that's just what you do
Acknowledging that giving up is sometimes necessary
Close my eyes and stare at the sun
Reflecting, possibly in solitude, with closed eyes facing the challenges
The back of my eyes look like you
Expressing that the impact of experiences is visible in the eyes
Look like you
Repetition for emphasis on the resemblance to someone
The back of my eyes look like you
Reiteration of the impact in the eyes resembling someone
Look like you
Continued emphasis on the visual similarity to someone
Look like you
-Look like, look like
Repeated emphasis on resembling someone
Look like, look like you
-Look like, look like you
-Back when we were seventeen
Reflecting on the past, specifically at the age of seventeen
I never would say I told you so
Avoiding saying "I told you so" in the past
You never learned to trust me
Highlighting a lack of trust in the relationship
Even at your low
Referring to a difficult or low point in the person's life
And you said that I would die
Recalling a prediction or statement about potential consequences
Before you learned to fly
Suggesting personal growth or change in the other person
But look at you now
Observing positive changes in the person's life
When I look up the skies
Looking up at the skies, possibly reflecting on the past
And I start to close my eyes
Starting to close the eyes, possibly in introspection
I feel you now
Feeling a connection or presence of the person being talked about
I feel you now
-I feel you now
-Never mind the bad yeah it's all good
Advising to ignore the negative and focus on the positive
That's the only thing I can do
Embracing a positive mindset as the only viable option
I don't know why but I can't shake
Expressing uncertainty about why a particular feeling persists
That the back of my eyes look like you
Reiterating the persistent impact in the eyes resembling someone
Never mind the bad yeah it's all good
-That's the only thing I can do
-I don't know why but I can't shake
-That the back of my eyes look like you
-Look like, look like you
Continued emphasis on resembling someone visually
Look like, look like you
-Look like, look like you
-Look like, look like you
