Lyrics
How do you loom so large after all the times I tried to let you go?
Feeling overwhelmed by the persistence of memories despite attempts to move on.
Like a shadow from a mountain top I could not climb so I stayed below
Comparing the emotional burden to an insurmountable obstacle, choosing to stay in its shadow.
Made me mad/ Made you sad/ Loved you half my life
Expressing mixed emotions—anger, sadness, and a long-lasting love.
Flowers that have bloomed for you/ Now have all died
Metaphorically conveying the end of beauty and vibrancy associated with the past relationship.
Do you even care who I was to you? / Next time you turn your back, I won't be there, won't be there for you
Questioning the other person's concern about the speaker's identity, hinting at a forthcoming detachment.
Oh my, oh my God/ What have I done?
Expressing regret and guilt, possibly related to actions taken in the relationship.
Oh my, oh my God/ What have I done?
Repeating the emotional turmoil and introspection, intensifying the sense of remorse.
Every thought of you gave quite a scare
Acknowledging the unsettling impact of thoughts about the other person.
In my dreams of you hands running through your hair
Referencing dreams, a realm where the speaker connects intimately with the person, perhaps contrasting with reality.
Made me mad/ Made you sad/ Loved you half my life
Reiterating a complex mix of emotions and a significant duration of love.
Flowers that have bloomed for you/ Now have all died
Reinforcing the metaphor of wilting flowers, symbolizing the decay of the relationship.
Do you even care who I was to you?/ Next time I turn my back, you won't be there, you won't be there for me
Flipping the perspective, anticipating a future when the speaker won't be available for the other person.
Oh my, oh my God/ What have I done?
Repeating the expression of remorse and questioning one's actions with heightened intensity.
Oh my, oh my God/ What have I done?
Continuing the theme of questioning and reflecting on past deeds with a sense of disbelief.
Oh my, oh my God/ What have I done?
Repeating the questioning, emphasizing the gravity of the perceived mistakes.
Oh my, oh my God/ What have I done?
Continuing the cycle of self-interrogation, underscoring the weight of remorse.
Oh my, oh my God/ What have I done?
Intensifying the repeated questioning, amplifying the emotional turmoil.
Oh my, oh my God/ What have I done?
Repeating the expression of regret and questioning, maintaining a sense of despair.
Oh my, oh my God/ What have I done?
Continuing the intense self-reflection and regretful questioning.
Oh my, oh my God/ What have I done?
Concluding with a final, desperate plea questioning the consequences of actions taken.
