Lyrics

I can’t recenter

I am unable to find my center or balance.

Long days cold weather

Days are extended, and the weather is cold, creating a sense of hardship or difficulty.

Think back November

Reflecting on the past, specifically the month of November.

Like glass we severed

Our connection or relationship has become fragile and easily broken, like glass.


But I want you everyday

Despite the challenges, I desire you every day.

Sometimes I find

At times, I realize that I am acting immature or childlike.

I’m a child

Expressing vulnerability, admitting to being like a child.

I’m a child for you

Reiterating the self-perception of being a child in the context of the relationship.


Should have known better

Acknowledging a past mistake or oversight, recognizing that things could have been better.

Crawl back to never

Referring to a place of no return or a state of perpetual separation.

Today we shouldn’t be

Today is not the right day for us to be together.

I’ll wait to get back together

Willing to wait for the opportunity to reunite or reconcile.


And I want you everyday

Despite challenges, the desire for the person persists every day.

Sometimes I find

Acknowledging occasional realization of one's own immaturity.

I’m a child

Reiteration of feeling like a child, emphasizing vulnerability.

I’m a child for you

Continuing to express the self-perception of being a child in the relationship.

And all the things you ask for

Granting the partner's requests or wishes, emphasizing the willingness to comply.

I’m a child

Repeating the self-identification as a child, emphasizing submission or compliance.

I’m a child for you

Continuing to express the self-perception of being a child, emphasizing commitment.


And I want you everyday

Despite challenges, the desire for the person persists every day (repeated).

Sometimes I find

Acknowledging occasional realization of one's own immaturity (repeated).

I’m a child I’m a child

Reiteration of feeling like a child (repeated), emphasizing vulnerability.

I’m a child I’m a child for you

Continuing to express the self-perception of being a child in the relationship (repeated).
