Lyrics
How many times did you
Reflecting on how many times the speaker was told they were needed
Tell me I need you
Acknowledging the repeated declarations of dependency
How many times did I
Recalling attempts to believe in the person mentioned in the song
Try to belive you
Expressing the struggle to trust and have faith in that person
(That ain't enough)
Emphasizing that the previous actions or words were insufficient
How many roads did I
Questioning the journeys taken in search of the mentioned person
Ride just to find you
Highlighting the effort expended in finding the person
How many fires did you
Asking about the emotional toll represented by metaphorical fires
Burn there behind you
Referring to past emotional burdens carried for the person
(That ain't enough)
Reiterating that the past actions or experiences were inadequate
That ain't enuf to satisfy my love
Stating that previous efforts were insufficient to satisfy love
I'm so greedy
Admitting to a sense of greediness in the speaker's desires
No that ain't enuf you called my bluff
Reiterating that past actions or promises were insufficient
When I was bleeding
Recalling a moment of vulnerability or need that was ignored
You knew me so well
Recognizing a deep understanding of the speaker by the other person
I trusted your power
Having trusted the influence or control the other person had
Now that you're gone
Describing a difficult period now that the person is gone
It's my darkest hour
Referring to a time of emotional hardship or despair
(That ain't enough)
Reiterating that past experiences or connections were insufficient
That ain't enuf to satisfy my love
Emphasizing that past efforts were not enough to satisfy love
I'm so greedy
Acknowledging a sense of greediness in the speaker's emotions
No that ain't enuf you called my bluff
Repeating that past actions or assurances were insufficient
When I was bleeding
Recalling a moment of vulnerability or need that was ignored
I was losin my head
Describing a state of confusion or emotional turmoil
Over somethin' you said
Indicating that the speaker was greatly affected by something said
But I don't blame you
Asserting that blame is not placed on the person mentioned
I was falling apart
Admitting to personal struggles and emotional breakdown
About to break my heart
Expressing a moment of vulnerability or potential heartbreak
I was the same as you
Comparing the speaker's experiences to those of the other person
You know I care
Demonstrating care and intimacy through a simple action
I combed your hair
Describing a tender moment of grooming or affection
With my fingers
Using a specific action to symbolize closeness and connection
If that ain't enough
Indicating that the previous gestures or actions were not enough
I'm givin' up
Expressing a decision to give up or let go
I won't linger
Affirming a commitment not to linger or dwell in the past
