Lyrics
I sit by myself on the couch in the basement
I am sitting alone on the couch in the basement.
Thinking bout the ways I could tell you the safest-way is not to think about the could have been basic arguments it's stupid to be bringing up fake shit
I am contemplating ways to convey that it's best not to dwell on past arguments and bringing up false issues is senseless.
But you need me, a lot more then I need you
Despite the past, you depend on me more than I depend on you.
You need me, I'm better without you
I am better off without you; you need me more than I need you.
I wanna be alone with myself tonight
Tonight, I desire to be alone with myself.
Don't wanna be what you thought I was I'm getting right
I don't want to conform to your expectations; I am making positive changes in my life.
For myself
It's about living for myself.
It's my own life
Emphasizing that it's my own life.
I wanna be alone with myself tonight
Reiteration of the desire to be alone with oneself tonight.
Sometimes I get the feeling that
Expressing a feeling that sometimes you might want to reconcile.
You want to maybe take me back
Suggesting the emotional pain of considering getting back together.
It hurts A lot I might relapse
The pain is intense, and there's a risk of returning to the old self.
Back to who I used to be
Reflecting on the possibility of reverting to a previous version of oneself.
I'm takin a break
Announcing a break from some social interactions.
From some human interactions
Choosing to stay up late, perhaps in solitude.
I'm staying up late
Engaging in conversations with imaginary or past entities under the mattress.
Talking to ghosts under my mattress
Recognition that the person sees themselves more than they see the other.
Yeah I see me, a lot more then I see you
Still breathing despite challenges; contemplating asking the other person to leave.
I still breathe, I think I might ask you to leave
Reiteration of the desire to be alone with oneself tonight.
I wanna be alone with myself tonight
Reiterating the intention not to conform to others' expectations.
Don't wanna be what you thought I was I'm getting right
Reemphasizing the focus on personal well-being.
For myself
Stating that it's their own life.
It's my own life
Expressing a desire to be alone with oneself tonight.
I wanna be alone with myself tonight
Reiteration of the potential desire of the other person to reconcile.
Sometimes I get the feeling that
Repeating the emotional pain and the risk of relapsing into the old self.
You want to maybe take me back
Expressing the intense pain that might lead to relapse.
It hurts A lot I might relapse
Reflecting on the possibility of reverting to a previous version of oneself.
Back to who I used to be
Final acknowledgment of the risk of returning to the person they used to be.
