Lyrics
Drive home safely, don't wait up for me
Urging someone to drive safely and not wait for the speaker to return home.
The night’s still young and I can’t sleep
Expressing restlessness, unable to sleep, suggesting it’s still early in the night.
Leave my flowers by the door
Instructing to leave flowers outside the door.
Your tired eyes are calling, read the message on your phone
Observing the tiredness in someone’s eyes, noticing a message on their phone, indicating a sense of detachment.
I’m out and now it's over, I think I’m happier alone
Feeling that being alone might bring more happiness than being with the other person.
I won't fight anymore
Declaring an end to fighting or disagreements.
Don't want to lose a petty war
Expressing a desire to avoid trivial conflicts.
No words to heal the pain
Recognizing the inability of words to heal emotional pain.
I want to breathe again
Yearning for a sense of liberation, to breathe freely.
Desire brought us together
Highlighting that desire was the initial force bringing the couple together.
But it’s more than just game
Implying that the relationship is deeper than a mere game or superficial connection.
You started out with smiles and a gentle kiss
Recalling the beginning of the relationship with happiness and affection.
Now I barely know your name
Expressing a sense of disconnection or unfamiliarity with the partner now.
I held the door wide open, do or don't decide
Offering an open choice, possibly indicating an ultimatum or decision point in the relationship.
I feel my trust is broken, way too much unspoken
Feeling that trust has been shattered due to unspoken issues.
Just a mood that drags me down
Describing a mood or feeling of being dragged down emotionally.
I won't fight anymore
Reiterating a refusal to engage in further conflict.
Don't want to lose a petty war
Desiring to avoid insignificant arguments.
No you’ll never open up
Expressing frustration at the partner’s reluctance to open up emotionally.
I want to breathe again
Longing for emotional freedom and relief.
Your empty stare unsettles me
Feeling discomfort due to the partner’s distant and empty gaze.
A lack of words to comfort me
Noticing a lack of comforting words from the partner.
If you wanna build a home
Asking the partner to communicate if they want to establish a home together.
Why don’t you say so
Encouraging the partner to express their desires clearly.
Say so
Reiterating the need for clear communication.
Drive home safely, don't wait up for me
Repeating the urgency to drive home safely, suggesting a possible absence or departure of the speaker.
The night’s still young and I can’t sleep
Restating the restlessness and inability to sleep.
Leave my flowers by the door
Reiterating to leave flowers at the door.
I won't want to fight anymore
Declaring a reluctance to engage in further conflict.
Don't want to lose another war
Expressing a desire to avoid more emotional pain or battles.
My fragile heart can’t take the pain
Noting vulnerability and sensitivity to emotional pain.
I want to breathe again
Expressing a longing for emotional relief and freedom.
Drive home safely
Repeating the plea to drive home safely.
