Lyrics
If it's only gonna end up like it started now
If the relationship is going to end similarly to how it began
Then I won't be the one to entertain the thought of you
Declaring the speaker's unwillingness to entertain thoughts of the other person
Of you
Reiteration of the disinterest in the other person
But every time you find another way to get around it
Noticing the other person finding ways to avoid facing the issues
And I can't help it if you'll never entertain the thought of me
Expressing that the other person doesn't reciprocate thoughts of the speaker
Oh, we'll stay an unknown pleasure
Stating that the relationship will remain an unknown pleasure
I've been chasing what's familiar, I can tell, yeah
Acknowledging a tendency to chase what is familiar
But you know me better than I can know myself, yeah
Recognition that the other person knows the speaker better than they know themselves
And if there's only one way out of this thing, well
If there's only one way out of the situation
I could never show you just how far I fell
Inability to convey the depth of the speaker's emotions
But over and over and over and over again
Repetition of cycling through feelings of regret
I cycle through the feelings of regret
The speaker experiences a continuous cycle of regret
I know I let you down again
Admitting to letting the other person down again
If it's only gonna end up like it started now
Revisiting the idea that if it will end as it started, the speaker won't entertain thoughts of the other person
Then I won't be the one to entertain the thought of you
Reaffirmation of the speaker's reluctance to consider the other person
Of you
Reiteration of the disinterest in the other person
But every time you find another way to get around it
Noting the other person's ability to find alternative solutions
And I can't help it if you'll never entertain the thought of me
Expressing the speaker's inability to influence the other person's thoughts
Oh, we'll stay an unknown pleasure
Reaffirming that the relationship will remain an unknown pleasure
I try to read just what it means
Attempting to understand the meaning behind the actions
But I get caught between the lines
Feeling trapped or conflicted between different perspectives
Find myself in every word
Identifying with the words but hoping for emotional alignment
And hope my heart can realign
Hoping for emotional realignment
Thought I lost myself falling for your spell
Reflecting on losing oneself in the other person's influence
Like you lost yourself in mine
Comparing the mutual loss of selves in each other
But you only wanted love in your design
Realizing that the other person only wanted love based on their design
Guess I'll never find out why
Acceptance of not understanding the other person's motivations
I can't read what it means
Expressing the difficulty in understanding the situation
Now I'm caught in between the lines with you
Feeling caught between conflicting emotions with the other person
So I guess this is goodbye
Acceptance of the end of the relationship
If it's only gonna end up like it started now
Revisiting the idea that if it will end as it started, the speaker won't entertain thoughts of the other person
Then I won't be the one to entertain the thought of you
Reaffirmation of the speaker's reluctance to consider the other person
Of you
Reiteration of the disinterest in the other person
But every time you find another way to get around it
Noting the other person's ability to find alternative solutions
And I can't help it if you'll never entertain the thought of me
Expressing the speaker's inability to influence the other person's thoughts
Oh, we'll stay an unknown pleasure
Reaffirming that the relationship will remain an unknown pleasure
