Lyrics
What was it about us
Reflecting on the nature of the relationship
That never seemed to pull you in?
Expressing a lack of attraction or connection
There's something that propels us
Acknowledging a force that drives the relationship
That kept your face between your hands
Describing a moment of contemplation or introspection
You don't need to lie you failed with conviction
Noticing a lack of honesty and sincerity
Leaving it all to self-deprecation
Choosing self-criticism as a coping mechanism
(But I feel that)
Conveying a mixed emotional state
What's worth keeping this alive
Questioning the value of sustaining the relationship
When you won't be there to see just what we've built?
Raising doubt about the partner's commitment
Come to terms with how you feel
Encouraging self-reflection on emotions
What's worth keeping this alive
Raising doubt about the partner's commitment (repeated)
When you won't be there to see just what we've built?
Expressing the importance of witnessing relationship growth
Come to terms with how you feel
Encouraging self-reflection on emotions (repeated)
Remember the songs without no speech
Recalling memorable moments without words
Lacking motivation and ending without reach
Describing a lack of motivation and unfulfilled goals
You said it yourself, we both need to flourish
Affirming the need for personal and mutual growth
Not placing our bets on a fragmented surface
Avoiding reliance on an unstable foundation
(Question)
Posing a fundamental question about the relationship
What's worth keeping this alive
Raising doubt about the partner's commitment (repeated)
When you won't be there to see just what we've built?
Emphasizing the need for witnessing shared achievements
Come to terms with how you feel
Encouraging self-reflection on emotions (repeated)
What's worth keeping this alive
Raising doubt about the partner's commitment (repeated)
When you won't be there to see just what we've built?
Expressing the importance of witnessing relationship growth (repeated)
Come to terms with how you feel
Encouraging self-reflection on emotions (repeated)
We were jealous and pitiful
Recalling a past state of envy and self-pity
Won't be held responsible
Rejecting responsibility for the partner's emotions
How can I feel bad for you now?
Questioning the validity of feeling sympathy
We were jealous and pitiful
Recalling a past state of envy and self-pity (repeated)
Won't be held responsible
Rejecting responsibility for the partner's emotions (repeated)
How can I feel bad for you now?
Questioning the validity of feeling sympathy (repeated)
(We were jealous and pitiful)
Reiterating a past emotional state
Try to think with an uneducated mind
Advocating for simplistic thinking
(Won't be held responsible)
Rejecting accountability for causing emotional distance
The one that left you feeling behind
Highlighting the role of the partner in feeling left behind
(How can I feel bad for you now?)
Questioning the legitimacy of feeling sorry
Leave me for the rest, leave me thinking
Requesting separation with a lingering query
Leave me for the rest with a question
Requesting separation with a lingering question (repeated)
What's worth keeping this alive
Emphasizing the need for witnessing shared achievements (repeated)
When you won't be there to see just what we've built
Raising doubt about the partner's commitment (repeated)
Come to terms with how you feel
Encouraging self-reflection on emotions (repeated)
What's worth keeping this alive
Raising doubt about the partner's commitment (repeated)
When you won't be there to see just what we've built
Expressing the importance of witnessing relationship growth (repeated)
Come to terms with how you feel
Encouraging self-reflection on emotions (repeated)
We were jealous and pitiful
Recalling a past state of envy and self-pity (repeated)
