Lyrics

Why are you always inconsistent?

Questioning the consistency of the person, expressing frustration.

Nice one day, then the next you be distant

Noticing mood swings, from being nice to becoming distant.

Live in my head when I'm around you or I get lost in my phone

Describing mental confusion when around the person, or resorting to the phone for distraction.

Run out of things to say, feel better when I'm all alone

Feeling speechless and better off alone when conversation falters.

It's never gunna end well, well at least we got stories to tell

Acknowledging that the relationship is doomed but cherishing the shared experiences.

You just don't cut it, I open doors you shut it

Highlighting a lack of reciprocity, with one person opening up while the other closes off.

Had me on the ground from the summit, I'mma keep it one hundred

Reflecting on a challenging situation but vowing to stay honest.

Finally I was fed up though

Reaching a breaking point and deciding to end the cycle of frustration.

Dopamine levels go too low

Referencing low dopamine levels, possibly indicating a lack of happiness in the relationship.

Had to take a step back, out of this prison you locked me in

Taking a step back from the emotional "prison" created by the relationship.

Locked the door, threw the key, never be seen again

Symbolically locking away the relationship and choosing to move on.

You know I got a vision and you're here to find out

Asserting personal goals and vision, implying a need for individual growth.

Yeah, you make me start to think that you will light my night out

Expressing hope that the person will bring positivity and light into their life.

I'm a prisoner of the moment

Declaring being trapped in the current moment or emotional state.

We've been through this one thousand times again and again

Acknowledging repetitive cycles of conflict and resolution in the relationship.

You know I got a vision and you're here to find out

Reiterating the desire for personal growth and understanding.

Yeah, you make me start to think that you will light my night out

Expressing the ongoing hope for a positive impact on their life.

I'm a prisoner of the moment

Repeating the feeling of being trapped in the current emotional state.

We've been through this one thousand times again and again

Emphasizing the cyclical nature of their relationship challenges.

I sit and I think, yuh

Contemplating and processing thoughts.

Just tryna get my thoughts together

Attempting to organize and make sense of one's thoughts.

I try not to blink, yuh

Avoiding blinking as a metaphor for trying to prolong a positive experience.

I wanted this to last forever

Expressing a desire for the relationship to last indefinitely.

I guess I just like bad habits

Admitting a penchant for unhealthy habits or relationships.

Never really have or had it

Acknowledging a history of not having or maintaining positive experiences.

Just don't get how everybody seem's to know, but me

Feeling perplexed about others seeming to understand relationships better.

Don't matter cuz I'll just run right back to you

Despite confusion, returning to the person in question.

No matter the outcome, I always lose

Anticipating losing in the relationship but returning nonetheless.

What's it like on the other side? I gotta find out

Expressing curiosity about the experience of others outside the current relationship.

Yeah, I gotta find out, yeah I gotta find out

Reiterating the determination to explore alternative experiences.

What's it like on the other side? I gotta find out

Continuing the quest for understanding and new perspectives.

Gotta find out!

Emphasizing the urgency of exploring new experiences.

You know I got a vision and you're here to find out

Reiterating the desire for personal growth and understanding.

Yeah, you make me start to think that you will light my night out

Expressing hope that the person will bring positivity and light into their life.

I'm a prisoner of the moment

Declaring being trapped in the current moment or emotional state.

We've been through this one thousand times again and again

Acknowledging repetitive cycles of conflict and resolution in the relationship.

You know I got a vision and you're here to find out. (Can't write it off, write it off.)

Underlining the continued desire for a positive impact from the person.

Yeah, you make me start to think that you will light my night out

Repeating the feeling of being trapped in the current emotional state.

I'm a prisoner of the moment

Emphasizing the cyclical nature of their relationship challenges.

We've been through this one thousand times again and again

Reiterating the frustration of repeating the same relationship struggles.
