Lyrics
She was out late again
She stayed out late once again
I can tell cause I got the scent
The narrator can sense this due to a distinctive smell
Don't imagine you'd want
Don't expect her desire or intention
Don't tell me how it's supposed to be
Don't instruct me on how things should be
I can tell cause I got to sing
The narrator can sense this because they have a song or melody associated with it
She can run, but she can't breath
She can run away, but she struggles to breathe
I can tell, cause I got to win
The narrator can sense this because they have a need to win
Don't tell me how it's supposed to be
Don't instruct me on how things should be
I watched the spirit leave
The narrator witnessed the departure of someone's spirit
This world
Referring to the world or life in general
On a cold dark day
Referring to a bleak and harsh day
Yeah
Expression of agreement or emphasis
I watched the spirits leave
The narrator observed the departure of spirits from this world
This world
Referring to the world or life in general
On a dark cold day
Referring to a bleak and harsh day
She could be the only one
She could be the only significant person
But I lost my patience once
The narrator lost patience once in the past
Don't tell me how it's supposed to be
Don't instruct me on how things should be
You can lose what you need
You may lose what you require
But what use is that
Questioning the usefulness of losing what is needed
Take all the pain
Endure all the suffering
Give nothing back
Without gaining anything in return
Now I'm slidin' in reverse
Now, experiencing a backward or negative progression
Got nothin' to catch my fall
No support or safety to break the fall
I watched the spirit leave
The narrator witnessed the departure of someone's spirit
This world
Referring to the world or life in general
On a cold dark day
Referring to a bleak and harsh day
Yeah
Expression of agreement or emphasis
I watched the spirits leave
The narrator observed the departure of spirits from this world
This world
Referring to the world or life in general
On a dark cold day
Referring to a bleak and harsh day
Alright
Expression of agreement or emphasis
