Lyrics
Why does everything I try
The speaker wonders why their efforts result in feelings of isolation.
Just make me feel alone
Actions or attempts lead to a sense of loneliness.
It's not like I'm tired from this high
They aren't exhausted from success but rather seek comfort.
I just want to go home
The desire is to return home, seeking solace.
To you
Home represents comfort, perhaps a specific person.
But I'm sick and tired
Expresses weariness and frustration.
Of all the shots you fired
Refers to emotional attacks or criticisms received.
And I can't wait around for you
The speaker won't wait for the person to change.
To change
A recognition that waiting for change is futile.
You don't even have a clue
Indicates the person's lack of awareness of their impact.
On how you made me feel
The speaker experienced emotions caused by the person's actions.
I saw it through, I wish it wasn't true
The speaker wishes their perception was false, but it isn't.
But this was never real
The relationship or situation was never genuine or authentic.
But I'm sick and tired
Repeats the feeling of exhaustion and frustration.
Of all the shots you fired
Re-emphasizes emotional attacks or criticisms received.
And I can't wait around for you
Reiterates the refusal to wait for change.
To change
Stresses the futility of expecting change.
You know I'm better
The speaker acknowledges personal improvement without the person.
Without you in my sweaters
The absence of the person in their life is better (symbolized by sweaters).
Cause I was always the one
The speaker believes they were unfairly blamed in the relationship.
To blame
Expresses a recurring feeling of being held accountable, possibly unjustly.
