I said I wouldn't bring it up again
Expressing reluctance to bring up a certain topic again.
But damnit, You're always on your shit, my friend

Constantly on the back of my mind
Feeling preoccupied or burdened by thoughts about the addressed person.
And I hate the way you grind your teeth

It constantly makes me loose sleep

This is the house we built
Suggesting a shared effort or experience with the addressed person in building something, likely a relationship or life together.
Never a home

Always feeling alone

This is the house we built

And I am sure its not what you remember

Because the gaslight is always on
Referring to a pervasive sense of manipulation or distortion of reality through gaslighting.
But you'll never get very far, with your excuses

So tell me how does it feel

Because I'm moving forward
