Lyrics
So why
Expressing a questioning or contemplative stance
Will it take you all night?
Raising a query about the duration of a certain activity or decision
Look me into my eyes
Inviting someone to make a sincere connection through eye contact
Then I'll let you decide
Granting the other person the power to make a decision
If you want this or not
Posing a question about the desire for a particular outcome
Know with every second of my joy there comes a cost
Acknowledging the trade-off between joy and its associated cost
But I don't really wanna know about it till it's gone
Expressing a reluctance to confront certain realities until they are gone
I'm far away from everything so don't tell me to stop
Asserting a physical and emotional distance from various aspects of life
I've made my mind can you make yours?
Confirming a firm decision and questioning the other person's ability to do the same
I might break down
Acknowledging a vulnerability to breaking down emotionally
And I can't ever stop it
Stating an inability to halt a particular process or emotion
So don't stay around
Advising against staying around due to a need for solitude
I need some peace and quiet
Expressing a desire for tranquility and quietude
A couple bad days
Acknowledging the impact of challenging days on one's well-being
Will take its toll out on me
Highlighting the toll that difficult experiences take on the individual
Won't hear what you say
Indicating a lack of interest in external opinions or advice
I think it's kinda boring
Expressing a view that certain things are uninteresting or dull
And I won't fight for it
Declining to engage in a struggle or fight for something
I'm way too fucking tired
Conveying extreme fatigue and exhaustion
I threw my pride away into a burning hellfire
Describing a willing abandonment of pride in a challenging situation
So what you gotta say is nothing that I haven't heard
Dismissing the significance of what someone has to say, implying prior knowledge
I thought you knew there was a reason that this bridge was burnt?
Referring to a past event and asserting a reason for severing a connection
So why
Reiterating the initial questioning or contemplative stance
Will it take you all night?
Repeating the inquiry about the duration of a certain activity or decision
Look me into my eyes
Reiterating the invitation to establish a sincere connection through eye contact
Then I'll let you decide
Restating the granting of decision-making power to the other person
If you want this or not
Repeating the question about the desire for a particular outcome
Know with every second of my joy there comes a cost
Reiterating the acknowledgment of the trade-off between joy and its associated cost
But I don't really wanna know about it till it's gone
Reiterating a reluctance to confront certain realities until they are gone
I'm far away from everything so don't tell me to stop
Reiterating the assertion of a physical and emotional distance from various aspects of life
I've made my mind can you make yours?
Reaffirming a firm decision and challenging the other person's ability to do the same
