Lyrics

I was out till morning you came home at five

The narrator stayed out until morning while the partner returned home at 5 AM.

Argue why I'm drunk while you are kinda high

An argument about the narrator being drunk while the partner is somewhat high.

Love me while we fight yeah, love me while we fight

Despite arguments, there's a request to be loved during conflicts.

It's all pretty lies yeah, it's all pretty lies

All the affection and love during fights are considered deceptive and false.

Why won't you let go you always say goodbye

The partner struggles to let go, frequently saying goodbye.

When you hold me close you say just for tonight

When physically close, the partner insists it's only for the night.

Love me while we cry yeah, love me while we cry

Requesting love even during moments of crying or emotional distress.

It's all pretty lies yeah, it's all pretty, pretty lies

Highlighting that all expressions of love are merely attractive lies.

When you're drunk and alone always say that you miss me

When intoxicated and alone, the partner expresses missing the narrator.

But why won't you pick up the phone

Questioning why the partner won't answer the phone despite missing the narrator.

You got a text from my ex where she said that she kissed me

Notification about a text from the narrator's ex, claiming she kissed the narrator.

But why do you believe her though

Questioning the partner's trust in the ex's message.

I know I've never done you bad

The narrator asserts never causing harm to the partner.

Why you always get so mad

Addressing the partner's recurring anger despite no apparent wrongdoing.

When there's nothing that I did to you

Expressing confusion about the partner's anger when there's no reason for it.

I was out till morning you came home at five

Repetition of the narrator being out till morning and the partner coming home at 5 AM.

Argue why I'm drunk while you are kinda high

Reiteration of the ongoing argument about the narrator being drunk while the partner is high.

Love me while we fight yeah, love me while we fight

Repeating the plea to be loved during conflicts.

It's all pretty lies yeah, it's all pretty lies

Restating that all expressions of love during fights are deceptive.

Why won't you let go you always say goodbye

Reiterating the partner's difficulty in letting go and saying goodbye.

When you hold me close you say just for tonight

Repeating the partner's insistence that physical closeness is only for the night.

Love me while we cry yeah, love me while we cry

Repeating the request for love during moments of crying or emotional distress.

It's all pretty lies yeah, it's all pretty, pretty lies

Reiteration that all expressions of love are attractive lies.

Why you calling me up and got nothing to say

Questioning the purpose of calling without having anything to say.

Just to check if I am home

Checking if the narrator is home through a call.

Call out tiny mistakes just to ruin my day

Accusing the partner of highlighting minor mistakes to spoil the narrator's day.

Wonder why I don't care when you're alone

Wondering why the partner expects a reaction when alone.

I know I've never done you bad

Reiterating the narrator's innocence and lack of harm towards the partner.

Why you always get so mad

Questioning the partner's recurring anger despite no apparent wrongdoing.

When there's nothing that I did to you
