Lyrics
Don't know what I did to make you feel that way,
Expressing uncertainty about actions that may have caused negative feelings.
I can't always say just what I want to say,
Difficulty in always expressing thoughts as desired.
I'm out of place again, you're on my case again,
Feeling out of place with someone, facing criticism again.
Bringing up the past & sling it in my face again,
Past issues brought up and thrown in the face, causing discomfort.
Put me in the frame,
Being framed or put in a challenging situation.
So even if I win I lose,
Even if victorious, still feeling like a loser.
Going down slow ain't the only way to go,
Rejecting the notion that going down slowly is the only option.
Listen to me honey, gonna tell you something funny,
Sharing something humorous, implying being missed after departure.
Miss me when I'm gone you'll be the one to sing the blues,
Anticipating that the listener will be the one feeling sorrow when the speaker is gone.
Seems to me the good times ended way to soon,
Reflecting on the abrupt end of good times.
Seems like faded echoes in an empty room,
Comparing pleasant memories to faint echoes in an empty space.
Strangers in the night, strangers in the light,
Describing a strained relationship with conflicts, symbolized by strangers in different settings.
Seems like every word we say just makes us scratch and bite,
Communication leading to arguments and hostility.
Thought we had the answers,
Doubting previously held certainties and solutions.
Sure we couldn't lose,
Confidence lost despite initial certainty.
What you want from me,
Questioning what is expected from the speaker.
Is all the things that I can't be,
Being unable to fulfill certain expectations.
Listen to me baby, I'm beginning to go crazy,
Addressing someone and expressing a sense of losing sanity.
Miss me when I'm gone you'll be the one to sing the blues,
Reiterating the idea that the listener will feel sorrow once the speaker is absent.
More it think about it it's a goddamn shame,
Reflecting on the unfortunate realization.
Opposites attract 'til they become the same,
Attraction turning into similarity, leading to problems.
Daggers in our eyes, time to say goodbye,
Expressing a critical point in the relationship with intense emotions.
Time to stop pretending, time to stop the endless lies,
Deciding to stop pretending and end the deception.
I wish you luck, babe, I hope you find a dream and it comes true,
Wishing luck for finding dreams, accepting the reality of separation.
What my eyes can't see don't make no difference to me,
Indicating that what is not seen doesn't affect the speaker.
Listen to me faking, even though me heart is breaking,
Acknowledging the act of pretending despite internal pain.
miss you now you're gone, now I'm the one to sing the blues.
Feeling the absence and becoming the one to express sorrow.
