Lyrics

I'm smoking cigarettes

Expressing the act of smoking cigarettes

I thought that I could forget

Initially believed smoking could help in forgetting

Those things you said to me

Reflecting on hurtful things said by someone

But you're dead to me, yah you're dead to me, yah

Declaring emotional detachment, emphasizing the person is no longer significant

And now I'm lying on the bathroom floor

Describing a state of emotional distress, possibly after a confrontation

You said you loved me but I loved you more, yah

Contrasting feelings in a past relationship, with a sense of unequal love

Take what you want, and tell me that it's okay

Allowing someone to take what they want, accepting heartbreak

Break my heart, you can break me any way

Expressing vulnerability and willingness to endure pain in various ways

Freaking out I can't get out of here

Feeling trapped and anxious, unable to escape from a situation

Every time I fuck up, I wish that I could disappear

Expressing a desire to disappear when facing consequences of mistakes

Tell me you love me

Seeking reassurance of love from the other person

Tell me you hate me

Exploring the duality of emotions, open to both love and hate

Tell me all I wanna hear

Craving positive affirmations and comforting words

Tell me its alright, when i'm in the headlines

Yearning for reassurance when facing public scrutiny

And both of our feelings disappear

Noting the disappearance of genuine feelings in challenging times

I'm freaking out cause I don't know how much I can take of all this shit

Feeling overwhelmed by life's challenges and uncertainties

And I've been feeling like a waste of space who just gives and takes away, whenever he wants to

Expressing self-doubt and a sense of worthlessness

Tell me that its gonna get better

Seeking assurance that things will improve

Tell me that its gonna be okay

Yearning for confirmation that everything will be alright

Tell me that you're gonna wake me up

Desiring a wake-up call from the distressing dreams

From all these dreams that fuck with me

Expressing the torment caused by disturbing dreams

Freaking out I can't get out of here

Feeling trapped and unable to escape from a distressing situation

Every time I fuck up, I wish that I could disappear

Repeating the desire to disappear when faced with mistakes

Tell me you love me

Seeking affirmation of love from the other person

Tell me you hate me

Embracing the conflicting emotions of love and hate

Tell me all I wanna hear

Yearning for words that provide solace and comfort

Tell me its alright, when im in the headlines

Seeking reassurance when faced with public scrutiny

And both of our feelings disappear

Reflecting on the disappearance of genuine emotions in challenging times

And both of our feelings disappear

Reiteration of the fading of feelings

And both of our feelings disappear

Further emphasis on the disappearance of emotions

And in my body, I just light up the flames

Metaphorically lighting up the flames in one's body, possibly referring to passion or desire

The flames you said you'd put out

Recalling promises to extinguish emotional turmoil, now facing renewed distress

But now i'm starting to burn again

Expressing the rekindling of emotional pain

And now i'm here hoping I don't stay awake

Hoping for relief through sleep, but uncertainty lingers

But I've been trying for days

Struggling mentally over an extended period

And I'm just stuck in my brain again

Feeling trapped in one's thoughts and emotions

And in my body, I just light up the flames

Repeating the metaphor of igniting flames within the body

The flames you said you'd put out

Recalling unfulfilled promises to extinguish emotional turmoil

But now i'm starting to burn again

Highlighting the resurgence of emotional pain
