Lyrics
You always told me I'd get over it
You consistently assured me that I would overcome a certain situation or emotion.
I always said that you were wrong
I always disagreed with your assessment, insisting that you were mistaken.
I'm disappointed, but not surprised

Can't put my finger on it

Understanding the topics or content of your conversations.
I thought about bringing you flowers
Contemplating the idea of trying to improve the situation by bringing a positive gesture.
To try to turn it around
Abandoning the idea and resigning to the current state, possibly indicating self-reliance.
Gave up and stood in the shower
Choosing to stand in the shower, a solitary and contemplative act.
