Lyrics
With how we used to be I'd think that you would be more lenient
Reflecting on past dynamics, expecting understanding or leniency.
But you fall out of love with me
Noticed a decline in love, especially when it's convenient to fall out.
Every time it gets convenient
Love seems to fade at opportune moments, creating uncertainty.
I constantly feel afraid
Constant fear of heartbreak, a prevalent emotional struggle.
That my heart is going to break
Choosing words carefully to avoid conflicts or disagreements.
I'm careful how I speak 'cause I don't want a disagreement
Kissing is seen as a personal accomplishment, implying difficulty.
And every time we kiss feels like a personal achievement
Despite daily commitment, awareness of frequent changes in feelings.
With every single day
Forgetting the volatility of emotions with the passage of time.
That you decide to stay
Highlighting the uncertainty in the decision to stay each day.
I forget how often you change your mind
Forgetting the inconsistency in the partner's mindset.
Right when we're feeling good
A sense of impending doom, anticipating the end during good times.
It could be the last time
Good moments may be the last, emphasizing unpredictability.
Tightrope walking on eggshells
Metaphorically walking a tightrope, balancing on fragile ground.
Talking to my friends like they could help
Turning to friends for support, recognizing the need for help.
Hoping you don't find someone else
Fearing the possibility of the partner finding someone new.
Late night fighting in a hotel
Expressing conflicts and fights, especially during late-night moments.
Locking up the door to my own cell
Feeling trapped or confined, symbolized by locking a cell door.
Knock on my heart, don't ring the bell
Asking for gentleness in approaching emotional issues.
And I'll be there
Repetition of commitment to be there despite challenges.
I'll be there
-I'll be there
-I'll be there
-I feel like I'm in this cycle of codependency
Describing a cycle of emotional dependence on the partner.
Like I'm not happy when I'm without him but I'm not happy when I'm with him
Feeling discontented both in and out of the relationship.
And I just feel so alone
Experiencing profound loneliness despite being with the partner.
And then I feel like I'm losing everybody else
Sensing a loss of connection with others while in the relationship.
I'm losing myself
Recognizing the impact of the relationship on personal identity.
My inner light is fading
Symbolizing a diminishing sense of inner strength or positivity.
And I just feel so alone
Reiterating the pervasive feeling of loneliness.
