Lyrics
Do you remember when we played that game?
Reflecting on a past experience of playing a game together.
It wasn't hard but it turned out that way
Despite the game being initially easy, it became challenging.
When you were gone they'd try to take your place
When absent, others attempted to fill the person's role, but it felt different.
But it just wasn't the same
Expressing the changed dynamic when the person was not present.
No it just wasn't the same
Emphasizing that the situation was notably different without the person.
How was I supposed to know
Pondering about not anticipating the impact of someone's absence.
I'd never escape her ghost
Feeling haunted by memories of the person who is no longer present.
It seemed not long ago
Reflecting on the recent past when the person was still part of the speaker's life.
She was mine to protect
Expressing a sense of responsibility for protecting the person when they were together.
Can't get her off my mind
Struggling with persistent thoughts about the person.
No matter how hard I try
Despite efforts, unable to forget or move on from memories of the person.
I'm out of options this time
Feeling that available choices are exhausted in dealing with the situation.
I'm calling on you to make this happen
Making a plea or request for assistance to make a positive outcome occur.
I need to know this'll turn out right
Expressing a desire for reassurance that things will work out as intended.
But I can't change her mind
Unable to influence or change the person's decision or perspective.
So I'm calling on you
Reiterating the plea for assistance or intervention from someone else.
Calling on you
Repeating the call for help or support from an external source.
I felt the final straw
Experiencing a breaking point or the last straw in a situation.
I found out that she moved on
Discovering that the person has moved on from the relationship.
I wish I knew before
Expressing a wish to have known about the person's departure earlier.
I gave her my heart
Regretting giving one's heart to the person who has now moved on.
Now when I try to sleep
Experiencing difficulty sleeping due to emotional distress.
My body begins to scream
Physical and emotional pain intensifies when attempting to sleep.
I'll burn as long as I breathe
Expressing enduring emotional suffering as long as the person is alive.
I'm calling on you to make this happen
Reiterating the call for external help or intervention to ensure a positive outcome.
I need to know this'll turn out right
Seeking reassurance about the eventual positive resolution of the situation.
But I can't make her mine
Accepting the inability to reclaim or win back the person.
So I'm calling on you
Repeating the plea for assistance from an external source in the face of adversity.
Calling on you
Reiterating the call for help or support in a time of emotional need.
