Lyrics
I'm so over being over you
I have moved on from being emotionally affected by our past relationship.
I'm so done doing things I'm suppose to do, mm mm
I'm tired of conforming to expectations and societal norms.
I got a problem with letting go
I struggle with releasing my emotional attachment to you.
I just thought I should let you know
I feel it's important for you to be aware of my difficulty in letting go.
That I still keep the light on
I keep a metaphorical light on, symbolizing hope and openness for you.
To show you that I'm home, wishing
Expressing a desire for your presence while at home, waiting and longing.
Wishing you would come around more
Hoping for more frequent visits from you.
Even though I know
Despite knowing the outcome, I maintain hope and openness.
Same moment you walk in, you're out the door
Highlighting the fleeting nature of your presence, entering and leaving swiftly.
Oh oh
Repetition of "Oh oh" suggests emotional distress or realization.
Oh you give me love
Acknowledging the receipt of love from you.
Just to break my heart
Love received is accompanied by heartbreak.
Put me back together
Rebuilding after heartbreak only to experience it again.
Just to pull me a part
Continuous cycle of emotional mending and breaking.
You give me a hand and kick me to the ground
Contrast between assistance and harm, symbolizing emotional instability.
Oh you build me up
Building up emotionally just to be emotionally torn down.
Just to tear me down
Reiteration of the emotional tearing down experienced.
Oh just to tear me down, mm
Emphasizing the repeated emotional damage endured.
Now I'm sober from your love
Having overcome the intoxicating effects of your love.
Just a touch will get me drunk, mm
A small reminder of your touch can still have a powerful impact.
My best friends are my memories
Memories serve as reliable sources of comfort in the absence of your presence.
They're the only ones that save me from this misery
Only memories provide solace in times of emotional distress.
That's why I still keep the light on
Continuing to keep hope alive through the symbolic light.
To show you that I'm home wishing
Reiteration of the longing and waiting for your return.
Wishing you would come around more
Expressing the desire for more frequent visits despite the known outcome.
Even though I know
Acknowledging the fleeting nature of your presence.
Same moment you walk in, you're out the door
Highlighting the swift departure immediately after arriving.
Oh oh
Repetition of "Oh oh" indicating continued emotional turmoil.
Oh you give me love
Acknowledging the love given, which is accompanied by heartbreak.
Just to break my heart
Love received leads to a subsequent breaking of the heart.
Put me back together
Rebuilding after heartbreak, only to face another emotional breakdown.
Just to pull me apart
Continuation of the emotional cycle of mending and breaking.
You give me a hand then kick me to the ground
Contrast between assistance and harm, symbolizing emotional instability.
Oh you build me up
Building up emotionally only to be torn down emotionally.
Just to tear me down, oh
Reiteration of the emotional tearing down experienced.
Oh just to tear me down, oh yeah
Emphasizing the repeated emotional damage endured.
Oh just to tear me down, down, down, mm
Repetition of "Oh just to tear me down, down, down, mm" for emphasis.
