Lyrics
Give me a sign
Request for a sign, a subtle indication or signal.
Move the hair out my eyes
Asking for assistance, possibly seeking clarity or understanding.
If the party is over
Questioning if a social event or relationship has concluded.
Would you walk with me home
Expressing a desire for companionship on the way home.
It's no surprise
Stating that the emotional response is expected or unsurprising.
What I'm feeling inside
Revealing inner emotions or thoughts.
It's the end of the night
Signifying the end of an event or period.
And I'm drunk and alone
Feeling intoxicated and solitary at the conclusion of the night.
Cuz I begged him to stay
Recalling a plea for someone to stay in a relationship.
He said he didn't love straight to my face
Acknowledging a rejection, being told that love is not reciprocated.
And I hope you don't mind
Explaining the purpose of the current company as a distraction from past heartbreak.
You're only here so I forget him tonight
Clarifying the temporary nature of the connection, aiming to forget the past.
Now that we're over
Reflecting on the conclusion of a relationship.
He's picked up his posters
Noting the departure of the former partner, leaving physical and emotional voids.
And all of my walls
Describing the emptiness in the surroundings after the departure.
They look empty and grey
Expressing a sense of loneliness and desolation.
So here's my apartment
Acknowledging the presence of the listener in the speaker's living space.
Feels weird that you walked in
Feeling discomfort or unfamiliarity with the new presence.
Cuz you are not him
Emphasizing that the current person is not the previous partner.
I don't love you that way
Clarifying that the speaker does not have romantic feelings for the listener.
And I begged him to stay
Recalling a previous plea for the departed partner to stay.
He said he didn't love straight to my face
Reiterating the rejection and the inability of the departed partner to love.
And I hope you don't mind
Reiterating the temporary nature of the current connection for distraction.
You're only here so I forget him tonight
Expressing the hope that the current connection helps in forgetting the past.
He threw it all away
Highlighting the partner's decision to end the relationship and discard everything.
Said we're better apart
Stating the partner's belief that separation is beneficial.
How did I let everything change
Expressing regret or confusion about the drastic changes in the relationship.
Now we're strangers at heart
Acknowledging a significant emotional distance between the speaker and the partner.
He threw it all away
Repeating the partner's decision to end the relationship and the perceived improvement in separation.
Said we're better apart
Reiterating the idea that the relationship is better off ending.
How did I let everything change
Expressing bewilderment or regret about the changes that led to being strangers.
Now we're strangers at heart
Repeating the notion that the speaker and the partner are now strangers emotionally.
At heart
Emphasizing the emotional distance and unfamiliarity.
But I begged him to stay
Repeating the plea for the partner to stay in the relationship.
He said he couldn't love straight to my face
Reiterating the rejection and the partner's inability to love sincerely.
And I hope you don't mind
Reiterating the temporary nature of the current connection for distraction.
You're only here so I forget him tonight
Expressing the hope that the current connection aids in forgetting the past.
