Lyrics
Hey
Initial greeting or attention-grabber
For your ears only
Sharing something specifically for your listening
I'm feeling lonely
Expressing a sense of isolation or solitude
So here's 5 minutes of me spilling out my heart
Offering a brief duration to share deep emotions
And yet somehow
Despite this communication, the distance feels significant
When we're apart
When not together, the emotional connection weakens
It feels like we may as well be over now
Implying a sense of imminent relationship termination
I'm not willing to deal with feeling insecure
Unwillingness to cope with insecurity
While you so sure
Contrasting personal insecurity with partner's confidence
And I'm just sitting here alone
Feeling alone while contemplating
Wishing I didn't have this damn phone
Desire to detach from continuous communication
So I could leave you in the past
Wishing to move past the relationship
Where you belong all along
Belief that separation is the rightful place for the partner
I wish I'd ask
Regretting not asking important questions earlier
Why'd we start this
Reflecting on the inception of the relationship
Knowing it would never last
Acknowledging the foreseen impermanence of the relationship
Hey
Reiteration of the greeting or attention
I swear I'm sorry
Expressing remorse or regret
I never meant to hurt you
Unintentional harm caused to the partner
Didn't realize what you saw in me
Lack of awareness regarding the partner's perspective
But now
Realizing difficulty in severing the relationship
I can't the cord so easily
Questioning if being loved is a defining factor
Loving is my second language
Proficiency in expressing love or emotions
Is that what you see in me
Wondering if this proficiency attracted the partner
Lover take me
Desire for the partner to take action in the relationship
Come and save me
Pleading for the partner's assistance or affection
I can't do this alone
Admitting inability to face the situation alone
I'm not willing to deal with leaving you behind
Unwillingness to cope with separation from the partner
And now I'm finding myself
Discovery of self while in solitude
Sitting here alone
Continuing to feel isolated
Trying not to call your phone
Struggling against the urge to contact the partner
So I can leave you in the past
Desire to move past the relationship
Where you belong all along
Belief that separation is the rightful place for the partner
I wish I'd asked
Regretting not asking important questions earlier
Why'd we start this
Reflecting on the inception of the relationship
Knowing it would never last
Acknowledging the foreseen impermanence of the relationship
