Lyrics
Alarm rings
Waking up to the sound of an alarm
Just another ordinary day
A regular, unremarkable day
On my own
Feeling isolated or without company
Missing you
Longing or yearning for someone
Still in this room
Still present in the same place
Memorising what to say to you
Committing words or thoughts to memory to communicate with the person
If we are through
Considering the possibility that the relationship is over
'Cause you know why it is
Awareness of the reason for being alone
That I'm here on my own
Recognizing the current state of solitude
So why don't you tell me
Asking the person to explain why
And I'll leave you alone
Willingness to leave the person if told why
'Cause you know why it is
Reiteration of understanding the reason for being alone
That I'm here on my own
Reiterating recognition of solitary state
So why don't you tell me
Repeating the request for an explanation
And I'll leave you alone
Reiterating willingness to leave if given a reason
Forgotten words
Words or promises that have been forgotten or lost significance
Now they mean nothing it wouldn't hurt
Realization that these forgotten words hold no emotional weight anymore
To see you again
Desire to meet the person again
But things have changed
Acknowledgment of changes in the relationship
'Cause saying I love you is just questioning the day
Expressing that saying "I love you" now feels uncertain or challenging
That I stop missing you
Anticipating the day when the longing for the person ends
'Cause you know why it is
Recognizing the reason for being alone
That I'm here on my own
Asking again for the reason to be revealed
Well don't you tell me now
Requesting the person to disclose the reason
And I'll leave you alone
Expressing readiness to leave upon knowing the reason
'Cause you know why it is
Reiterating understanding of being alone
That I'm here on my own
Repeating the request for an explanation
Well don't you tell me now
Asking again for the reason to be revealed
And I'll leave you alone
Stating willingness to leave if given a reason
'Cause you know why it is
Understanding the reason for solitude
That I'm here on my own
Repeating the request for the reason
Well don't you tell me now
Asking one more time for the reason to be disclosed
And I'll leave you alone
Expressing willingness to leave if the reason is communicated
