Lyrics
Didn't mean to make you cry
Expresses regret for causing emotional distress
Or stay out all night
Apology for staying out late
I'm someone by your side
Assurance of being present for the person
I'm someone you believe in
Claiming reliability and trustworthiness
I've already died
Suggesting a past change or demise
That was someone's suicide
Reference to a previous self-destructive act
I know it's gross
Acknowledging discomfort or revulsion
To think what once inside me
Reflection on something unpleasant within
Hanging on the wall now
Metaphorically mentioning a piece of oneself displayed
If only you could read it
Wishing for understanding of personal expression
Somehow believe it was true
Desire for belief in a personal creation
That I made it for you
Implied creation made for someone
Everyone
Reference to general populace
Wanted me around when I was happy
Desire for companionship during joyous times
Nobody
Desolation felt during sad moments
Wanted me around when I felt sad
Isolation experienced during times of sadness
All of our friends said that you'd work it out
Assumption by friends of resolving issues with time
Just give it time
Belief in the possibility of resolving difficulties given time
But none of us knew all the pain that you felt in your mind
Unawareness of the depth of inner pain
All the time
Constant internal struggle
Everyone
Desire for companionship during joyous times (repeated)
Wanted me around when I was happy
Desolation felt during sad moments (repeated)
Nobody
Isolation experienced during times of sadness (repeated)
Wanted me around when I felt sad
Desire for companionship during joyous times (repeated)
Everyone
Desolation felt during sad moments (repeated)
Nobody
Isolation experienced during times of sadness (repeated)
Everyone
Desire for companionship during joyous times (repeated)
Just have some fun
Encouragement for enjoyment
Nobody
Lonely suggestion to end one's life
Kill yourself
Directly advises self-harm or suicide
