Lyrics

V1:

Introduction to Verse 1

It doesn’t matter

Emphasizing the irrelevance of the situation

Just how it happened

Describing an event without specifying details

it’s out in the distance

Distance in time or emotionally

Too long gone to fix it

Too late to repair or mend

PRE:

Transition to Pre-Chorus

I forgot how to breath

Feeling breathless or overwhelmed

The second you left

The immediate impact of the departure

The second you said it’s you not me

Clarification of reasons for separation

Caught in between

Caught between conflicting emotions

Keeping you close

The struggle to keep someone close

And letting you go

Torn between holding on and letting go

CHORUS:

Introduction to Chorus

I wanna love you but you’re worlds away

Desire to love despite physical or emotional distance

Using the memories to fill empty space

Using memories as a substitute for the person

Hard to believe that I’m here and you’re gone

Struggling to accept the reality of separation

I’m falling back while you move on

Personal regression as the other moves forward

I’d do it again if it ended the same

Willingness to go through the pain again

I’d tear up my heart just to feel yours again

Expressing extreme emotions to reconnect

It’s worth every day that i’ll spend in repair

Acceptance of the process of healing and recovery

Stuck in a love no longer there

Feeling trapped in a love that no longer exists

The thought of you, cuts me so deep

The lingering emotional pain of memories

But I can’t stop wondering

Continuously thinking about the person

Baby do you, do you still think of me

Questioning if the other person still thinks about them

V2:

Introduction to Verse 2

Packed up the apartment

Packing up belongings and moving on

Left behind what we started

Leaving behind what was initially created

You couldn’t explain it

Unable to explain the reasons for leaving

There was no hesitation

No hesitation in the decision to leave

PRE:

Transition to Second Pre-Chorus

I forgot what it means

Forgetting the importance of self-preservation

to put myself first

Struggling to prioritize one's well-being

Cause it never works, no I never learn

Repeating past mistakes and not learning from them

I tried to believe

Attempting to believe that the separation won't hurt

That this wouldn’t hurt

Realizing that the pain only intensifies

But it only gets worse

Acknowledging the worsening emotional state

CHORUS:

Introduction to Second Chorus

I wanna love you but you’re worlds away

Reiteration of the desire to love despite distance

Using the memories to fill empty space

Using memories to fill the void left by the person

Hard to believe that I’m here and you’re gone

Continued struggle to accept the reality of separation

I’m falling back while you move on

Personal regression as the other moves forward

I’d do it again if it ended the same

Willingness to endure the pain again for the same outcome

I’d tear up my heart just to feel yours again

Extreme actions to feel the emotional connection again

It’s worth every day that i’ll spend in repair

Acceptance of the ongoing process of emotional recovery

Stuck in a love no longer there

Feeling trapped in a love that has ceased to exist

The thought of you, cuts me so deep

Reiteration of the deep emotional pain caused by memories

But I can’t stop wondering

Continued contemplation about the other person

Baby do you, do you still think of me

Questioning if the other person still thinks about them
