Lyrics
My resolutions always fall through so I
Expressing a pattern of failed resolutions or commitments.
Rang in the New Year by calling you
Initiating the New Year with a phone call to someone significant.
Dropped my defense
Lowering defensive barriers or walls.
Picked up the phone
Answering the phone call, being receptive.
I woke you up
Interrupting someone's sleep by calling them.
I could tell by your tone said
Perceiving the mood of the person based on their tone.
Before you hang up
Before ending the call, expressing a desire to convey something important.
I thought you should know
Revealing that the speaker is still emotionally attached.
I’m still hung up on
Reiterating emotional attachment to the person.
You, you, you, you
Repeating the emotional attachment with emphasis.
You, you, you, you
-Liquor was doing most of the talk and you
Noting the influence of alcohol in communication.
Weren’t even mad til I heard someone
Discovering displeasure upon hearing about someone.
Shallow reply
Characterizing the response as shallow.
Said you were alone
Learning that the person claimed to be alone.
But that was a lie
Recognizing deception through tone.
I could tell by your tone said
Repeating the desire to convey something before ending the call.
Before you hang up
Reiterating the emotional attachment.
I thought you should know
Expressing persistent emotional attachment.
I’m still hung up on
Emphasizing continued emotional attachment.
You, you, you, you
-You, you, you, you
-I cleared a bottle just to see the bottom dry
Consuming a bottle, possibly as a coping mechanism.
I wish it were my eyes oh no no no
Expressing a wish for a different perspective or understanding.
You said tomorrow won’t be filled with sorrow
Receiving assurances about the future but facing challenges.
Then you blamed the signal flow oh no no no
Encountering difficulties, possibly in communication.
I’m still hung up on
Reaffirming persistent emotional attachment.
You, you, you, you
-You, you, you, you
-Call after call
Highlighting a series of repeated calls.
Year after year
Emphasizing the passage of time with continued emotional attachment.
Still hung up on you
Repeating the central theme of being emotionally hung up on someone.
Still hung up on you
