Lyrics
I've never been to Boston
Expressing a lack of personal experience in Boston.
You said we'd see it all someday
Reference to a promise or plan to explore everything, including Boston, at some point.
You know I'd stay right here forever
Expressing a desire to remain in a specific situation indefinitely.
To have you for one more day
Willingness to prolong the situation just to have another day with someone.
Between the busy streets, and concrete dreams
Contrasting urban life and aspirations (busy streets, dreams).
I slid under the cracks
Feeling unnoticed or unseen, slipping through unnoticed spaces.
And I let it happen again and again and again
Repetition of allowing oneself to be overlooked or neglected.
Still looking back
Continuously reflecting on past experiences.
I know it's over now
Realization that a situation or relationship has concluded.
I can't undo whats said
Regret over words spoken that cannot be undone.
My head
Personal struggles and thoughts encapsulated in the mind.
Is keeping me locked down
Feeling mentally confined or restricted.
I might go insane
Possibility of losing mental stability.
From Side effects
Unintended consequences or reactions from a situation.
Do you see what it cost me
Evaluating the personal cost of a situation or decision.
Will I have paid it off in time
Concern over whether the 'cost' will be repaid or resolved within a certain timeframe.
You know I've lived this moment over
Reliving a specific moment repeatedly in thought or memory.
Is it over the rest of our lives.
Questioning if a particular experience is the definitive conclusion of their lives.
Between the fallout days and the after-waves
Referencing the aftermath of a conflict or difficult situation and its subsequent effects.
I slid under the cracks
Similar to line 6, feeling unnoticed or ignored in challenging circumstances.
I've let it happen again, and again and again
Repeating the pattern of being unnoticed or ignored.
Still looking back
Continued retrospective contemplation on past occurrences.
Breath again
Seeking relief or renewal by breathing again.
Circling the outside in
Reflecting on an external perspective while being on the outskirts or periphery.
Will I ever breath again
Questioning the possibility of returning to a normal state of being.
Circling the outside in
Repeatedly navigating the external before feeling internalized.
