Lyrics

You, you said you'd never leave

You promised not to leave, but...

But now I'm lying on my bathroom floor

Current emotional state: lying on the bathroom floor

Us, oh what we could've been

Reflection on the potential of the relationship

But now you've gone and thrown it all away

The potential is lost; everything is discarded


Cause I know you still

Belief that the person still dreams about the speaker

Dream of me every night

The recurring theme of being in someone's dreams

And you should know I'd

Expressing a willingness to do anything for the person

Kill just to say that you're mine

Extreme desire to claim the person as their own

But I hope that's okay

Seeking approval for intense feelings

I wish I could stay

Desire to prolong the connection, though difficult


You, you said you'd never leave

Reiteration of the promise not to leave

So why am I crying on my bathroom floor

Current emotional state: crying on the bathroom floor

Us, oh what we could've been

Reflecting on lost potential again

But now I've gone and thrown it all away

The speaker now discards the potential


Cause I know you still

Belief that the person still dreams about the speaker (repeated)

Dream of me every night

Reiteration of the recurring dream theme (repeated)

And you should know I'd

Expressing a willingness to do anything for the person (repeated)

Kill just to say that you're mine

Extreme desire to claim the person as their own (repeated)

But I hope that's okay

Seeking approval for intense feelings (repeated)

I wish I could stay

Desire to prolong the connection, though difficult (repeated)


You, you said you'd never leave

Reiteration of the promise not to leave (repeated)

But now you're coming crawling back to me

The person who left is returning

Us, oh what you couldn't see

The person failed to see something important

Is what was staring right in front of me

The speaker now sees what the person missed


Cause I know you still

Belief that the person still dreams about the speaker (repeated)

Dream of me every night

Reiteration of the recurring dream theme (repeated)

And you should know I'd

Expressing a willingness to do anything for the person (repeated)

Kill just to say that you're mine

Extreme desire to claim the person as their own (repeated)

But I hope that's okay

Seeking approval for intense feelings (repeated)

I wish I could stay

Desire to prolong the connection, though difficult (repeated)


Cause I know you still

Belief that the person still dreams about the speaker (repeated)

Dream of me every night

Reiteration of the recurring dream theme (repeated)

And you should know I'd

Expressing a willingness to do anything for the person (repeated)

Kill just to say that you're mine

Extreme desire to claim the person as their own (repeated)

But I hope that's okay

Seeking approval for intense feelings (repeated)

I wish I could stay

Desire to prolong the connection, though difficult (repeated)
