Too Soon
Echoes of Regret: Unveiling the Pain in Nick Bussi's 'Too Soon'
Lyrics
I was woken by your steps
I woke up when I heard your footsteps
Too soon, I knew I couldn't make it
Realizing it was too early, I understood I couldn't endure it
I should have walked away again
I should have walked away once more
Just the habit of lying to yourself
Referring to the tendency of deceiving oneself
Don't stay here
Advising not to remain in this situation
I cannot stand it anymore
Expressing an inability to tolerate the current circumstances
Don't stay
Repeating the advice not to stay
I hear you laughing
Noticing the sound of laughter from the other person
I cannot stand it anymore
Expressing an increased inability to endure
You would have blown my head anyway
Suggesting that the person would have caused significant distress
Too soon, I shot
Referring to an action of shooting, possibly metaphorical
Too soon, I let it go
Indicating a premature release or letting go of something
I didn't even know your name
Expressing a lack of knowledge about the person's identity
You're just a face between my legs
Describing the person in a detached and objectifying manner
Don't stay here
Reiterating the advice not to linger in the current situation
I cannot stand it anymore
Reiterating an increased inability to endure the situation
Don't stay here
Repeating the advice not to stay
I saw you die
Claiming to witness the person's demise
I cannot stand it anymore
Expressing an overwhelming inability to endure
I can't stand it anymore
Stating a general inability to tolerate the situation
Don't stay
Reiterating the advice not to stay
I hear you laughing
Again noting the sound of laughter from the other person
I cannot stand it anymore
Expressing an intensified inability to endure
Too soon, I shot
Repeating the reference to a premature shooting
Too soon, I let it go
Reiterating a premature letting go of something
