Lyrics
You were asleep while the ship was sinking
You were unaware or indifferent while a significant situation was deteriorating.
Out in the deep on the ocean blue
In the vast and open sea, symbolizing a vast and unpredictable situation.
A hole in my heart and I started thinking
Feeling emotional pain, contemplating a hole in the speaker's heart.
I can't believe I believed in you
Expressing disbelief in having faith or trust in someone.
I can't believe I believed in you
Reiteration of disbelief in having faith or trust in someone.
I guess nothing ventured, nothing gained
Acknowledging that taking risks is necessary for potential rewards.
I gotta pick my poison now
Facing the consequences and having to make difficult choices to numb the emotional pain.
Just to kill the pain
Choosing a coping mechanism, perhaps substance use, to alleviate the emotional distress.
Uh-oh
Expressions of surprise or realization about the current situation.
Uh-oh
-Uh-uh-oh
-Alone in my bed, aching head from drinking
Being alone in bed, suffering from a headache due to drinking.
Wasting away with my solitude
Experiencing a sense of wasting away in isolation.
A Saturday night, watching shadows shrinking
Describing a Saturday night marked by loneliness and fading hopes.
I can't believe I believed in you
Reiterating disbelief in having faith or trust in someone.
I can't believe I believed in you
-I know that the roses need the rain
Recognizing that challenges and difficulties are essential for growth.
It's a losing battle, babe
Highlighting the inevitability of emotional struggles, with the heart often prevailing over logic.
The heart out rules the brain
Acknowledging that emotions can overpower rational thinking.
Uh-uh-oh
Expressions of surprise or realization about the current situation.
Uh-oh
-Uh-uh-oh
-You were what's left of a washed out weekend
Describing a person as a remnant of a disappointing past experience.
I was a fresh peel and press tattoo
Portraying oneself as a fresh but temporary addition to someone's life.
Starving to death, what were we thinking?
Expressing a sense of desperation or starvation in the relationship.
I can't believe I believed in you
Reiterating disbelief in having faith or trust in someone.
I can't believe I believed in you
-In you
Repeated emphasis on the disbelief in having faith or trust in someone.
In you
-In you
