Undid my soul for you

Here you had pressed play
Indicating that the other person initiated or controlled the situation, possibly with a sense of manipulation.
How could I let myself go for you

'Cause we were a match

Everything laid out on the table

And I'll light my way

With all the bridges I burn
Expressing a willingness to move forward and overcome challenges by burning bridges, suggesting closure.
People they come and go

We're so far from being close
Highlighting a significant emotional distance between individuals despite the relationship.
Need time to rearrange
Expressing a need for time to reorganize or make sense of the emotions and experiences.
I'm so tired of the almost

And I'm not bitter, oh I wish you well
