Lyrics

Out of mind

Feeling disconnected or not fully present mentally.

Where you been

Asking about the whereabouts or recent activities of someone.

I want love

Expressing a desire for love.

Can't pretend

Unable to fake or act falsely.

I put my guard up

Being defensive or cautious in relationships.

You know the rest

Assuming the listener is aware of the outcome or aftermath.

Babe could we play

Proposing the idea of engaging in imaginative or make-believe scenarios.

Play pretend

Reinforcing the suggestion to engage in pretending, possibly to escape reality.

Out of mind

Reiteration of feeling mentally distant or disconnected.

Where you been

Repeating the inquiry about someone's recent activities or whereabouts.

I want love

Repeating the desire for love.

Can't pretend

Reiterating the inability to pretend or fake emotions.

I put my guard up

Reiterating a defensive stance in relationships.

You know the rest

Assuming the listener is aware of the consequences or subsequent events.

Babe could we play

Repeating the proposal to engage in make-believe scenarios.

Play pretend

Repeating the suggestion to play pretend, perhaps as a coping mechanism.

Memories fade

Reflecting on the fading of memories.

You live to die

Commenting on the inevitability of death as a part of life.

I hope you see me

Expressing a desire for recognition or acknowledgment when feeling vulnerable.

When I cry

Hoping that someone notices and understands emotional distress.

I thought of you

Recalling thoughts of the listener on a few occasions.

A time or two

Expressing the wish for reciprocity in emotional awareness.

I hope you see me

Reiterating the hope for acknowledgment and understanding.

I see you

Acknowledging the awareness of the other person.

And now I'm like

Indicating a change in perspective or emotional state.

Where you been

Repeating the question about recent activities or whereabouts.

I want love

Reiterating the desire for love.

Can't pretend

Reiterating the inability to pretend or fake emotions.

I put my guard up

Reiterating a defensive stance in relationships.

You know the rest

Assuming the listener is aware of the consequences or subsequent events.

Babe could we play

Repeating the proposal to engage in make-believe scenarios.

Play pretend

Repeating the suggestion to play pretend, emphasizing escapism.
