Lyrics

Don't be holy for me

Requesting not to act holier than one truly is, specifically directed towards the speaker.

Don't be so good

Advising against excessive goodness or righteousness.

You're in my head

Addressing the presence of someone in the speaker's thoughts.

Your taste is running through my

Suggesting the impact of the person's essence or influence on the speaker.

You're on the tip of my tongue

Expressing the person's proximity to the speaker's consciousness or awareness.


Don't be holy for me

Reiterating the request for authenticity and not pretending to be holier.

And don't you tell me that you're running from yourself

Discouraging the person from claiming to be running away from their true self.

And don't you tell me that you're saving for yourself

Rejecting the idea that the person is saving or preserving themselves in a self-serving manner.

And that you're fighting all your demons for yourself

Questioning the sincerity of the person's struggle with personal challenges.


Don't be holy for me

Repeat of the plea not to pretend to be holier, emphasizing a personal desire.

Oh, in your head

Referring to the person being in their own thoughts or mental space.

Oh, I've tried to shed

Acknowledging attempts to overcome or discard something.

I'm feeling dangerous

Expressing a sense of risk or threat, possibly related to emotions.

And you're dancing 'cross this floor

Describing the person's movement across a space, potentially metaphorical.

Oh, you're killing me

Indicating the person's impact on the speaker, possibly with emotional intensity.


Don't be holy for me

Repeating the plea for authenticity, cautioning against pretending to be holier.

And don't you tell me that you're chasing someone's dreams

Rejecting the idea that the person is pursuing someone else's dreams.

And don't you tell me that we're chasing someone's ghost

Denying the notion that the speaker and the person are chasing an elusive or unreal entity.

And don't you know we're on our own time, oh, we're sacred

Acknowledging the uniqueness of their time and suggesting its sacred nature.
