Echoes of Love Lost: Jelly Side Down's Polaroids
Lyrics
We were gonna get tattoos together in the summer
We had plans to get tattoos together during the summer.
Now we're just matching mistakes
Now our relationship is marked by shared errors or regrets.
Can you feel how I still miss her
Expressing the ongoing feeling of missing the person.
Can still see your cold breath lingering in the air right in front of me
Remembering a moment when the person's breath was visible in the cold air.
Blowing out smoke, rolling laughing on the grass for all to see
Recalling a joyful time together, laughing and smoking on the grass.
I hold onto your last words
Clutching onto the last words spoken by the other person.
And I'll just wait until mine are heard
Waiting for one's own words to be acknowledged or understood.
Guess I could just fuck off
Contemplating the idea of distancing oneself, possibly to benefit the other person.
Finally do you some good
Suggesting that leaving might be beneficial for the other person.
Believe me, right now
Assuring that leaving is the right thing to do at this moment.
I would if I could
Expressing a desire to leave if it were possible.
Lipstick teeth, we fly down the highway in your car
Recollecting a moment of driving down the highway together with vivid details.
Now that you've left me here, you finally know who you are
Reflecting on self-discovery after being left behind.
I watch on the screen as her smile cuts its way into your cheeks
Observing the impact of a new person's smile on the former partner.
Just stood by and watched as years disappeared by the end of the week
Witnessing the passage of time and the end of a relationship.
I hold onto your last words
Clutching onto the last words spoken by the other person (repeated).
And I'll just wait until mine are heard
Waiting for one's own words to be acknowledged or understood (repeated).
Guess I could just fuck off
Contemplating the idea of distancing oneself (repeated).
Finally do you some good
Suggesting that leaving might be beneficial for the other person (repeated).
Believe me, right now
Assuring that leaving is the right thing to do at this moment (repeated).
I would if I could
Expressing a desire to leave if it were possible (repeated).
I hold onto your last words
Clutching onto the last words spoken by the other person (repeated).
And I'll just wait until mine are heard
Waiting for one's own words to be acknowledged or understood (repeated).
Guess I could just fuck off
Contemplating the idea of distancing oneself (repeated).
Finally do you some good
Suggesting that leaving might be beneficial for the other person (repeated).
Believe me, right now
Assuring that leaving is the right thing to do at this moment (repeated).
I would if I could
Expressing a desire to leave if it were possible (repeated).
I would if I could
Reiterating the desire to leave if it were possible (repeated).
