Lyrics
Givin' up the habit
Giving up a habitual behavior or pattern.
Now that you're gone,
After your departure.
it's like magic
Feels like something inexplicable or amazing.
I can just reach out and grab it
It's now within easy reach.
All the things that I want,
Desire for various things or goals.
Everything
All-encompassing; possibly referring to desires.
Maybe if you cried once or twice
Suggesting that expressing emotions could have changed the situation.
things would be much different
Emphasizing a potential alternate outcome if emotions were shown.
But they're not
Contrasting the current reality with a hypothetical one.
And now it's over
Indicates the conclusion or ending of a situation or relationship.
I'm no longer your thing on a string
No longer being controlled or manipulated by someone.
Crimson clover
A symbolic reference; possibly representing love or memories.
Memories of you in October
Recollection of moments associated with you in a particular month.
I can hardly think it over
Difficulty in reflecting on past experiences.
It makes no sense at all
Expressing confusion or the lack of logic in the situation.
I can see it in your smile
Observation of emotions conveyed through a smile.
You've been hiding in the pile
Keeping emotions hidden or buried.
of emotion that she left you
Referring to the emotional aftermath left by someone else.
Don't you know that we're one in the same
Highlighting similarity or a connection between individuals.
Maybe if she tried once or twice
Suggesting a potential change if someone else expressed emotions.
Things would be much different
Comparing the actual situation with a hypothetical one.
But they're not and now it's over
Stating the end of a situation due to the lack of emotional expression.
You're no longer her thing on a string
No longer being controlled or manipulated by someone else.
