Lyrics
I'm on a mission here
I have a purpose or goal in this situation
Go save yourself
Take care of yourself; I cannot help you
We're better off that way
It's better for both of us to be apart
Find someone else
Find someone else to be with
We'd just be sitting here
If we stay together, it won't lead to anything positive
All on our own
We would be isolated or abandoned
If we could leave somehow
If we could escape somehow
Where would we run
Where could we go?
It's better off this way
Separation is the preferred option
I'm who they want
I am the one they desire or seek
And soon I'll be gone from here
I will soon be leaving this place
You're all that's left now, in this world
You are the only remaining person in this world
There's nothing else worth dying for
There is nothing else worth sacrificing or risking one's life for
I'm on a mission here
Reiteration of the mission or purpose
Go save yourself
Save yourself, implying potential danger
You're better without me
You are better off without me
Go get some help
Seek assistance from others
We'd just be laying here
If we stay together, it won't lead to anything positive (repeated theme)
All on our own
We would be isolated or abandoned (repeated theme)
If we could leave somehow
If we could escape somehow (repeated theme)
We would be one
If we could leave, we would be united or become one
But we don't talk much lately
There is a lack of communication recently
You know I still care
Despite the lack of communication, I still care about you
I'd waste too much time on you baby
I would waste too much time on you, acknowledging life's challenges
You know life's not fair
Life is not fair
But it's better off this way
Separation is the preferred option (reiterated)
There's no place to turn
There is no solution or escape
Where would I bring you
Where could I take you? (implying nowhere is a suitable place)
I'm not going home
I am not returning home
You're my reflection, from a distance
You are like my reflection, distant in this troubled world
In this lonely messed up world
Emphasis on the loneliness and dysfunction of the world
There's nothing left in this world
There is nothing of value or importance remaining in this world
Nothing in this world
Emphasizes the emptiness or lack of significance in the world
Nothing left in this world
Reiteration of the emptiness or lack of significance in the world
