Lyrics
I thought that I was blind to everything you told me I should see
I initially ignored or didn't comprehend what you advised me to see.
But when I opened up my eyes I started to believe
Upon opening my eyes, I started to believe in the truth hidden within the lies.
The truth in all these lies it never made much sense
The contradictions in the advice never made much sense before.
But now the door is closed, I’m leaning up against
Now, I'm metaphorically closing the door and reflecting on it.
The walls are closing in I don’t think I can escape
Feeling trapped as circumstances tighten around me; escape seems challenging.
You told me once you don’t believe in love or fate
You mentioned not believing in love or fate.
So now you walk away I don’t put up a fight
You're leaving without resistance from my side.
Don’t look back tonight
Don't turn back tonight.
Until you’re out of sight
Stay out of my view until you're completely gone.
Until you’re out of sight
Repetition emphasizing the desire for the person to remain out of sight.
Until you’re out of sight
-Until you’re out of sight
-Until you’re out of sight
-So now you walk away I don’t put up a fight
Reiteration of the person leaving without confrontation and the request not to look back.
Don’t look back tonight
-Until you’re out of sight
-Until you’re out of sight
Continuation of the plea for the person to stay out of sight.
Didn’t think I was strong enough to let you go, but I was wrong
Initially thought I couldn't let you go, but I was mistaken.
I didn’t have a choice I’m glad cause now you’re gone
Didn't have a choice but glad you're gone now.
The truth in all those lies, it’s starting to make sense
The truth in past lies is starting to make sense now.
I opened up the door, now you’re the one leaning up against
Metaphorically, I opened the door, and now you're the one reflecting on it.
The walls were closing in, but I still escaped
Managed to escape when the walls were closing in.
I know that what we had wasn’t love or fate
Recognizing that what we had wasn't love or fate.
I’m glad you walked away now we don’t have to fight
Glad you walked away; now there's no need to fight.
Don’t look back tonight
Don't look back tonight.
Because I’m out of sight
Emphasizing the relief of being out of sight.
Because I'm out of sight
-Because I'm out of sight
-Because I'm out of sight
-Because I'm out of sight
-Keep walking away ‘cos I don't need that life
Encouraging the person to keep walking away because that life is not needed.
Don't look back tonight
Don't look back tonight.
Because I'm out of sight
Expressing the freedom and positivity after breaking free from the relationship.
Never thought that I'd be saying
-You're not in my dreams
-When I close my eyes at night you aren't the one I see
-Now I've broke the chains and I'm flying free
-Never felt more alive
-Now that you're out of sight
Feeling more alive now that the person is out of sight.
