Lyrics
Those memories spin in my head
Reflecting on memories that are persistently occupying my thoughts.
A fog of romantic dread
Feeling a cloud of unsettling and fearful emotions related to romance.
Don't you have a fire to tend?
Questioning the other person's priorities and responsibilities.
You were the one that broke me
Attributing emotional pain to someone who caused a significant impact.
When you acted like you spoke for me
Feeling betrayed when someone misrepresented or spoke on my behalf.
You're not my friend, why did I trust you again?
Expressing regret for trusting someone who turned out not to be a true friend.
Clearly I'm delusional
Acknowledging a state of mental confusion or self-deception.
Cuz I can't see the point of you
Unable to understand the purpose or significance of the person being addressed.
Clearly I'm predictable
Admitting to being easily anticipated or understood.
You lie to me when I know the truth
Being lied to despite being aware of the truth.
Clearly I'm an idiot
Acknowledging a sense of foolishness or lack of judgment.
Cuz I fell for you like you ever gave a shit
Regretting investing emotions in someone who didn't reciprocate.
I was a pawn to you, fuck you and fuck all this
Feeling used and expressing anger towards the person.
I still smell those cigarettes
Recollecting the lingering scent of a negative association (cigarettes).
You never wanted my respect
Realizing that the person never valued or sought respect.
You play it off, to get what you want
Observing manipulative behavior used to achieve personal goals.
My love's a tool you pull on the shelf
Describing love as a tool that the person takes advantage of.
A tool you use only to help yourself
Highlighting the selfish use of love without regard for the other person.
Just another gateway to doubt myself
Recognizing a pattern of relationships leading to self-doubt.
Clearly I'm delusional
Reiterating the theme of self-deception or distorted perception.
I took it all for the sinker
Accepting responsibility for falling for deception.
I'm predictable
Acknowledging being easily predicted or understood by the other person.
You knew just how to pull my trigger
Recognizing that the person knows how to provoke emotional reactions.
I'm a start-end
Describing oneself as having a clear start and end in the relationship.
I never could read the clearest signs
Admitting difficulty in understanding clear signals in the relationship.
Maybe I'm the target
Suspecting being the target of manipulation or deceit.
You bought and sold my love with lies
Expressing the commodification of love through deceitful actions.
