Lyrics
Step back for a minute
Request to step back and reflect momentarily.
Take your time
Encouragement to take one's time and not rush.
You know I'm lyin' straight through my teeth
Admission of dishonesty, speaking untruths.
But you'll never mind
Assurance that the listener won't be bothered by the lies.
Drinking from the well ya poisoned yourself
Metaphorical reference to consuming something harmful, possibly a toxic relationship.
Can ya see how deep we fell
Observation of the depth of a downfall or decline.
It's gonna be alright
Reassurance that despite difficulties, everything will be okay.
What is this feeling?
Expression of uncertainty about a particular emotion.
My heart's been peeling
Description of emotional pain or vulnerability.
Apart from the inside
Indication of internal emotional distress.
That's a feeling to feel for
Suggesting that feeling the pain from within is a profound experience.
Step back for a minute take your time
Repetition of the initial request to step back and take time.
You know I'm lyin' straight through my teeth
Reiteration of the earlier admission of dishonesty.
But you'll never mind
Reassurance that the lies won't be a concern.
What is this feeling?
Repetition of the earlier expression of uncertainty about a particular emotion.
My heart's been peeling
Reiteration of emotional pain or vulnerability.
Apart from the inside
Restatement of internal emotional distress.
That's a feeling to feel for
Suggesting that feeling the pain from within is a profound experience (similar to line 12).
