Lyrics
My oh my
Expressing surprise or dismay ("My oh my").
the state of us
Reflecting on the current state of a relationship.
wasted to the bone
Feeling depleted and exhausted to the core.
and the simple truth
Acknowledging a straightforward reality.
of the matter is
Highlighting a simple and undeniable fact.
just a little close to home
Indicating that the truth hits close to home.
oh she brings me only sorrow
Describing the emotional impact of a person (she) causing sorrow.
and it's true
Affirming the truth of the sorrowful emotions.
we've seen better days
Recalling better times in the past.
there'll be hell to pay
Anticipating negative consequences or difficulties ahead.
for this tomorrow
Expecting repercussions for the current situation in the future.
but I'll stay awhile
Expressing a willingness to endure the sorrow for a while.
if it's all the same
Stating a condition for staying despite the sorrow.
tender hooks
Describing a vulnerable state of being attached or dependent.
that I'm hanging on
Emphasizing a prolonged and patient wait.
waiting for so long
Waiting for something eagerly and with great anticipation.
at the water's edge
Being at a critical point or decision-making moment.
and it's tempting me
Feeling enticed or lured by something.
to drift off out of here
Contemplating leaving the current situation.
oh she brings me only sorrow
Reiterating the emotional impact of the person causing sorrow.
and it's true
Affirming the truth of experiencing better days before.
we've seen better days
Expecting negative consequences or difficulties ahead (repeated).
there'll be hell to pay
Anticipating repercussions for the current situation in the future (repeated).
for this tomorrow
Expecting consequences for the sorrowful situation tomorrow.
but I'll stay awhile
Expressing a willingness to endure the sorrow for a while (repeated).
if it's all the same
Stating a condition for staying despite the sorrow (repeated).
oh she brings me only sorrow
Reiterating the emotional impact of the person causing sorrow (repeated).
but I'll stay awhile
Expressing a continued willingness to endure the sorrow.
if it's all the same
Stating a condition for staying despite the sorrow (repeated).
like a moth drawn to the flames
Comparing attraction to danger or destructive forces.
I can feel it in my veins
Feeling a strong and irresistible pull towards something.
I'm unsteady on my legs...
Experiencing instability or uncertainty in one's stance or decisions.
