Lyrics
On the fence about being out of order
Undecided about breaking the rules or behaving improperly.
'Cause if I leave now, I'll be back by the morning
Expressing hesitation to leave because of the intention to return in the morning.
My problem is I think I'm all for it
Conflicted about being enthusiastic or supportive.
How I put you over everything, yeah
Prioritizing the person addressed over everything else.
And when we talk, I'm still holding back
During conversations, holding back or not fully expressing oneself.
You asked how could I say that?
Addressing a question about the sincerity of a statement.
But I hate when you had played that
Expressing dislike for a previous behavior or action.
Then it's midnight mischief
Referring to engaging in playful or mischievous activities at midnight.
Baby, did you miss me?
Asking if the person missed the speaker.
Took an hour 10 and I turned it into fifty
Turning a short duration into a longer one (possibly referring to spending time together).
Feels like I haven't come home yet
Feeling like the speaker hasn't truly returned home yet.
'Cause shit changed like your time zone did
Noticing significant changes similar to a change in time zone.
Staying still made you feel hopeless
Remaining stagnant causing feelings of hopelessness.
Agree to disagree and fix it temporarily
Agreeing to disagree and temporarily fixing a problem.

She let me in with her dog at the door
Describing entering a place with the person's dog present.
And kissed me with the mask on when we're still in the store
Recalling a moment of intimacy with a mask on, possibly during a pandemic.
Inside I'm hiding
Internally concealing emotions or thoughts.
Then I come to find
Discovering something hidden within oneself.
I hate the things we say
Expressing dislike for hurtful words exchanged.
Would love to make you smile
Expressing a desire to bring happiness to the person addressed.
You could check a box
Suggesting a comparison between checking a box and acknowledging personal prejudices.
I couldn't check my bias
Unable to be impartial or unbiased.
Thinking it was fine
Believing that certain actions are acceptable.
You said "go" like I never stayed
Receiving a command to leave as if the speaker never stayed.
But if you want I could make my way
Offering to make a journey if requested.
Didn't plan to tell you my escape
Unexpectedly revealing the plan to escape.
Taking things I shouldn't take
Taking actions that may have negative consequences.
Yeah
