Lyrics
I never wanna meet him
I don't want to encounter the person I aspire to become
The man I wanna be
The idealized version of myself
Cause if I were to see him
If I were to meet that ideal self
No he wouldn't be friends with me
We wouldn't be friends; there's a disconnection
I don't know what I'd tell him
Uncertain about what I would say to him
About who I think I am
About my self-perception
Don't know if I could sell him
Unsure if I could convince him
On my fake five year plan
About my falsely presented future plans
Same body
Physically the same
New brain
Mentally transformed
New person
A different person now
Same name
But with the same name
Same endings
Similar outcomes in life
New start
A new beginning
I think I'm scared of what you're thinking
Fearful of the judgment from others
And how things might end
Concerns about potential negative consequences
If I met myself no we wouldn't be friends
If I met my ideal self, we wouldn't be friends
If I met myself no we wouldn't be
If I met myself, no friendship
If I met myself no we wouldn't be friends
Emphasizing the lack of connection with the ideal self
I never wanna meet him
Reiteration of not wanting to meet the past self
The man I was before
Aversion to encountering the person I used to be
Sayin he lacked meaning
Past self seen as lacking purpose
But always wanted more
Always desiring more despite the perceived lack
Oh would he be a stranger
Wondering if the past self would be a stranger
Or would he be a friend
Or possibly become a friend
Some things never change but
Some aspects remain constant, but reconciliation is possible
Maybe we could make amends
Hope for repairing the relationship with the past
Same body
Physically unchanged
New brain
Mentally evolved
New person
Transformed into a different person
Same name
Retaining the same name
Same endings
Similar life outcomes
New start
A fresh start
I think I'm scared of what you're thinking
Fearful of judgment and potential consequences
And how things might end
Concerns about the outcome of encountering oneself
If I met myself no we wouldn't be friends
No friendship if I met myself
If I met myself no we wouldn't be
Reiteration of the lack of connection
If I met myself no we wouldn't be friends
No friendship if the encounter happened
If I met myself no we wouldn't be friends
Emphasis on the disconnect with the past self
