Lyrics

Feels like the high has gone low

Expressing a feeling of a decline or downturn in emotional intensity.

We broke it down with honesty

Referencing a breakup that occurred through honest communication.

I accept what I was told

Accepting the information or explanation received.

Yet here I am stuck mulling on what's already been solved

Despite acceptance, the speaker is stuck dwelling on a resolved issue.

Clinging to uncertainty

Clutching onto doubt or lack of certainty.

So we won't have to call it off

Expressing a desire to avoid ending the relationship.


It's you that makes this sting

Attributing emotional pain to the other person in the relationship.

It's you that makes the space between feel

Pointing out that the other person contributes to a sense of inadequacy.

Painfully inadequate to me

Describing the emotional distance as painfully insufficient for the speaker.


Do you remember that cold night alone

Recalling a specific cold night spent alone.

I savored every minute yea

Savoring each moment during that solitary experience.

I wish I would've known

Expressing a wish for prior knowledge about the fleeting nature of the experience.

It won't last, gone too fast, just a part of our past

Acknowledging the temporary nature of the past and its quick passage.

But if you're yearning for nostalgia, I'd be over just like that

Suggesting a willingness to recreate nostalgic moments.


I did a couple years sleeping alone

Reflecting on a period of solitude lasting a few years.

So what's a couple more?

Pondering the insignificance of adding a few more years to that solitude.

it's that valued independence that has me begging at your door

Expressing a desire for independence but feeling drawn to the other person.

An I want turned I have

Noticing a change in personal desires or intentions.

Ends in sleeping back to back

Resulting in sleeping back to back, a shift in the relationship dynamic.

You know I'm grateful that I had but you should know that

Expressing gratitude for past experiences but emphasizing a need for understanding.


It's you that makes this sting

Reiterating the emotional pain caused by the other person.

It's you that makes the space between feel

Highlighting the impact on the emotional distance between them.

Painfully inadequate to me

Describing the emotional gap as painfully inadequate for the speaker.


It's you that makes this sting

Repeating the assertion that the other person causes emotional pain.

And everywhere I lay between

Indicating that the emotional impact is felt in various situations.

Reminding me

Reflecting on and being reminded of past moments that linger.

Of moments that just won't leave

Stating the persistence of certain moments in memory.

You or me

Mentioning the enduring connection between "you" and "me" despite challenges.
