Lyrics

Every time I see your face I'm holding back some tears

Expressing emotional difficulty upon seeing the person's face.

I've been trying to replace all of my biggest fears

Attempting to replace or overcome significant fears.

But when I look again I know I'm running out of time

Realizing the limited time available and a sense of urgency.

All the money I throw at it and there's none that I can buy

Money cannot solve the problem or buy more time.

Like I want to

Expressing a desire or intention.

Yeah I want to

Reiterating the desire or intention.

Hope I don't forget you

Expressing hope not to forget the person.

I've been so forgetful

Acknowledging forgetfulness or absent-mindedness.

Lost inside my head now

Feeling mentally lost or confused.

I've been lost inside my head now

Repeating the feeling of being lost in one's thoughts.

Isn't it beautiful

Reflecting on the beauty of a situation or experience.

That nothing lasts forever

Acknowledging the impermanence of everything.

We have no control

Highlighting the lack of control over certain aspects of life.

If we stay together all we have to hold

Exploring the significance of shared experiences in a relationship.

Are the echoes of the past

Reminiscing about past memories.

I know nothing lasts forever

Reiterating the idea that nothing is permanent.

And it's special 'cause of that

Emphasizing the uniqueness and value of impermanence.

Every time I think about it I just want to cry

Expressing emotional intensity and a tendency to cry when thinking about it.

It's beautiful and it makes me whole

Finding beauty in a situation despite the pain it brings.

But hurts at the same time

Acknowledging the contradictory nature of beauty and pain.

One year ago was a different me but commit the same crimes

Reflecting on a past self and repeated mistakes.

Wish I could've done it differently but now that I realize

Regretting the inability to change past actions.

Yeah I want to

Expressing desire or intention (repeated from lines 5 and 6).

Yeah I want to

Reiterating the desire or intention (repeated from lines 23).

Hope I don't forget you

Expressing hope not to forget the person (repeated from lines 7).

I've been so forgetful

Lost inside my head now

Isn't it beautiful

Acknowledging the impermanence of everything (repeated from line 12).
