Lyrics
You like to gaze at the sun
You find solace in observing the sun.
It pulls closer and closer
The sun appears to draw closer with time.
Seems like the nearer that you get
As you approach, positive things seem to disintegrate.
All good will burn into ashes
All that is good eventually turns to ashes.
You're like a child left unfed
Comparing you to a neglected child, lacking fulfillment.
You've lost all your patience
Your patience has worn thin.
We all want what's unsaid
There are unspoken desires common to all.
But then it all falls to pieces
However, everything falls apart.
Hey I'm not trying to pressure you
Assuring that there's no intention to pressure.
Hey I'm just tired of hiding the truth
Fatigue from concealing the truth.
How can't you see
Expressing disbelief or frustration.
She's gotta leave
A call for someone to leave.
She'll point back and scream
The departing person accuses and expresses anger.
You're dead to me
Declaring the emotional end of a relationship.
It seems like everyone's out of breath
Observing that everyone seems exhausted.
Just waiting for you to realise
Waiting for realization, perhaps on the part of someone else.
We all want this to end
A shared desire for resolution.
But then it all falls to pieces
Despite the desire, everything falls apart.
Hey I'm not trying to pressure you
Reiterating the absence of pressure.
Hey I'm just tired of hiding the truth
Expressing weariness of hiding the truth.
How can't you see
A plea for someone to recognize a need to leave.
She's gotta leave
The impending departure is emphasized.
She'll point back and scream
The departing person will express anger and accusation.
You're dead to me
Reiteration of emotional detachment.
You're dead to me
Emphasizing emotional distance.
You're dead to me
Further emphasizing emotional detachment.
You've been changing for a while
Noticing a gradual change in someone over time.
I'm bored of the sideline
Expressing boredom with being on the sidelines.
You've changed
Acknowledging a change in someone's personality.
But not for the better
The change is perceived as negative.
Better, better
Repeating "better" for emphasis on the negative change.
Hey I'm not trying to pressure you
Reassurance of no intent to pressure.
Hey I'm just tired of hiding the truth
Expressing fatigue from concealing the truth.
How can't you see
Expressing disbelief or frustration, reiteration.
She's gotta leave
Reiterating the need for someone to leave.
She'll point back and scream
The departure will be accompanied by anger and accusation.
You're dead to me
Reiteration of emotional detachment.
You're dead to me
Further emphasizing emotional distance.
You're dead to me
Emphasizing emotional detachment.
You're dead to me
Final emphasis on emotional distance.
