Lyrics
I'm falling under, I can't see
I'm experiencing a downward spiral, losing control.
What's real? Is it all just make believe?
Questioning the authenticity of reality, wondering if it's all an illusion.
I know you cover scars with Maybelline
Aware of hiding emotional wounds behind a cosmetic facade (Maybelline).
You opened my heart
Someone has emotionally opened the speaker's heart.
Ascend from the dark
Emerging or rising from a difficult or dark situation.
You know what I want
The speaker's desires or needs are understood by someone.
There's a wish on the passing clock
A desire or hope expressed with the metaphor of a passing clock.
What a waste and it tears me up
Expressing frustration and emotional pain, possibly over a wasted opportunity.
Can we loathe at our own pace?
Asking if it's possible to dislike or hate at one's own pace.
One taste of your love doesn't go away
Love received from the person lingers, doesn't fade easily.
When in fact, I've never been here before
Expressing a sense of unfamiliarity or disorientation.
I've noticed you packing and closing doors
Observing someone preparing to leave and shutting doors.
I'll take all the time that I need
Willing to take the necessary time for healing or recovery.
Ridding yourself from the smell of my sheets
Removing traces of the person from the speaker's life.
So don't say you're okay when I know you're not
Calling out a false claim of being okay when the person is not.
And don't lie, not for me, not for anyone
Emphasizing the importance of honesty, not just for the speaker but for everyone.
I'm falling under
Repetition of the feeling of falling under, possibly indicating a continuous struggle.
I can't see
Reiteration of the sense of losing sight or control.
What's real?
Repeating the questioning of what is real.
Is it all just make believe?
Repeating the uncertainty about reality, wondering if it's all a fantasy.
I know you cover scars with Maybelline, You opened my heart
Repetition of the awareness of concealing emotional scars with makeup (Maybelline), coupled with the memory of having one's heart opened.
Ascend from the dark, You know what I want
Repetition of emerging or rising from a dark situation, along with the acknowledgment of understanding the speaker's desires.
You know what I want, Ascend from the dark
Repetition of understanding the speaker's desires and emerging from darkness.
