Lyrics

Hey

Expression of attention or greeting.

I stare myself in the mirror and question things that I

Self-reflection and questioning past decisions.

Once accepted now I don't see it the same at all

Change in perspective on previously accepted things.

I guess its sorry how I act in the past and stuff

Acknowledging past actions and expressing regret.

But now I see what you meant when you just don't give a fuck

Realization of the indifference and not caring attitude of someone.

I can’t blame you for acting the way you acting now

Acknowledging understanding of the person's current behavior.

I guess I’m sorry that you hate me with a passion now

Expressing regret for being disliked intensely.

I hope that maybe someday we’ll be cool instead

Hope for future reconciliation despite current animosity.

But yet I understand how that may play your head

Acknowledgment of understanding the impact on the other person.

I do love you and see still in dreams and stuff

Expressing continued love and connection in dreams.

And often question if you love me or you dreamt enough

Doubt about reciprocated love or its sufficiency.

I don’t speak cause there not a way I can really do it

Communication difficulty due to emotional state.

I guess I'm saying that I’m happy but I’m going through it

Contradictory emotions of happiness and struggle.


It's just me and my self now

Repetition of the theme of being alone, struggling with thoughts, and the hope for support.

These empty thoughts girl I can't get them out

-

I'm not the same because you ain't around, baby

-

You pick me up so imma hold it down, baby

-

It's just me and my self now

-

These empty thoughts girl I can't get them out

-

I'm not the same because you ain't around, baby

-

You pick me up so imma hold it down, baby

-

Lie to me, talk to me, speak to me like

Reflecting on past mistakes, youth, and the transformation of the relationship into enmity.

It was cool, it was good, nothing happened like

-

We don’t know, what just happened

-

That was our mistake

-

We were young, we were dumb

-

But it wasn’t fake

-

They don’t know how I feel

-

They don’t see how it go

-

They don’t ever relate

-

They just watching the show

-

Want to ask you what's up

Expressing care, openness to communication, and continued support.

Cause it still went down

-

But it's crazy that grew to be enemies now

-

I guess I wrote this let you know, that I still care

-

And in the end well if you need something, I’m still there

-

Hope this new piece of life here is treating you good

Wishing well for the other person in their new life.

All in all it's all love, just the way that it should

-

It's just me and my self now

Reiteration of the theme of solitude, struggling thoughts, and the commitment to hold on.

These empty thoughts girl I can't get them out

-

I'm not the same because you ain't around, baby

-

You pick me up so imma hold it down, baby

-

It's just me and my self now

-

These empty thoughts girl I can't get them out

-

I'm not the same because you ain't around, baby

-

You pick me up so imma hold it down, baby

-

I know you wondering

Recognition of the other person's curiosity and questioning about the speaker's well-being.

I know thinking it

-

Know you checking on me

-

Know you asking yourself

-

I know you wondering

-

Know thinking it

-

Know you checking on me

-

Know you asking yourself

-

Why did it happen this way

Pondering questions about the past, changes, caring, and lingering emotions.

Why did everything change

-

Why do I care about you

-

Why dont these feeling go fade

-

Why did it happen this way

-

Why did everything change

-

Why do I care about you

-

Why won’t it go away

-

It's just me and my self now

Repetition of the theme of solitude, persistent thoughts, and the commitment to hold on.

These empty thoughts girl I can't get them out

-

I'm not the same because you ain't around, baby

-

You pick me up so imma hold it down, baby

-

It's just me and my self now

-

These empty thoughts girl I can't get them out

-

I'm not the same because you ain't around, baby

-

You pick me up so imma hold it down, baby
