Buddy
Navigating Love's Complexities: Kevian Kraemer's 'Buddy' Unveiled
Lyrics
Head stuck on the wheel the moment that you left
Feeling stuck and overwhelmed after the departure of a significant person.
I thought that I was ready for the pain that comes with loving a friend
Anticipating the pain that comes with being in love with a friend.
Embarrassing shit and lots of secrets said
Reflecting on embarrassing moments and shared secrets.
You could've used it all against me but you went along and shared more instead
Acknowledging vulnerability but appreciating the trust shown by the person.
I don't like it when
Expressing discomfort when a partner talks to others about their romantic interests.
You talk to your love sick guys and open ties to anyone that interested and
Disliking when the partner discusses romantic matters with other people.
You don't like it when
Partner's discomfort when the speaker talks to others about romantic interests.
Oh I get jealous over them cause we're just a little more than friends I need some
Feeling jealousy because the relationship is more than just friendship.
Space to think and breathe
Desiring space for self-reflection and understanding.
Figure out what it all means and
Seeking clarity on the meaning of the relationship and identifying mistakes.
Where I fucked up
Acknowledging personal errors in the relationship.
And seven weeks of laughing turned to "My parents aren't over"
Transition from laughter to serious discussions about parental disapproval.
And you knew we'd stay for hours
Recalling long hours spent together despite parental disapproval.
And seven days from then I wanted to
Expressing curiosity about the speaker's significance in the partner's life.
Know what it was I meant to you
Yearning for clarification on the depth of the relationship and experiencing emotional distress.
and I cried for hours
Expressing emotional pain through extended crying.
I don't like it when
Disliking when the partner's parents inquire about the speaker.
Your parents ask about about me
Partner downplays the relationship when asked about it by their parents.
You say what of it yea he's just a buddy
Partner refers to the speaker as just a friend to their parents.
You don't like it when
Discomfort when the partner reviews their conversations and realizes the relationship is more than friendship.
Your scrolling up and down our texts and see we're just a little more than friends I need some
Desiring space for self-reflection and understanding, similar to earlier in the lyrics.
Space to think and breathe
Reiterating the need for space and understanding.
Figure out what it all means
Continued reflection on the meaning of the relationship and personal mistakes.
Where I fucked up
Revisiting and acknowledging errors made in the relationship.
And I don't like it when
Discomfort when the partner talks to others about romantic interests.
You talk to your love sick guys and open ties to anyone that interested and
Partner's discomfort when the speaker discusses romantic matters with other people.
You don't like it when
Reiteration of the partner's discomfort with the speaker talking to others about romantic interests.
Oh I get jealous over them cause we're just a little more than friends I need some
Jealousy arising from the realization that the relationship is more than friendship.
Space to think and breathe
Expressing the need for space for self-reflection and understanding, similar to earlier in the lyrics.
Figure out what it all means and
Continued reflection on the meaning of the relationship and personal mistakes.
Where I fucked up
Acknowledging and reflecting on personal mistakes in the relationship.
