Lyrics
Whatever happened to the red guitar that I bought you I thought you always wanted to Play
Reflecting on a past gift, the red guitar, wondering about its current state and expressing a desire for it to be played.
Like a heart collecting dust in the bedroom I hope that you keep it in tune
Comparing the neglected guitar to a heart collecting dust in the bedroom, with a hope for it to be kept in tune.
Our song won't be written today
Acknowledging that their song won't be created or written on this day.
It's the same way when fighting in silence and your name is gone from my mind
Describing a feeling of fighting in silence, with the absence of the partner's name from the mind.
I feel the same damn way when you tell me that you're fine
Expressing a similar feeling when the partner insists they are fine.
I'm still here but I won't be here for too long
Being present but anticipating not being there for an extended period.
Gotta hold myself together till you tell me that I'm wrong
Feeling the need to hold oneself together until the partner admits fault.
It's in my ear but it's hard for me to be strong
Acknowledging the difficulty in remaining strong despite hearing something in their ear.
I don't want to comprise I'll wait until you're gone
Expressing a reluctance to compromise and a willingness to wait until the partner is no longer present.
It's the same way when fighting in silence and your name is gone from my mind
Reiterating the feeling of silent conflict and the partner's name being absent from the mind.
I feel the same damn way when you tell me that you're fine
Re-experiencing the same emotional state when the partner claims to be fine.
I need you to hold me you're the mold so sculpt me
Expressing a need for the partner to provide emotional support and shape the speaker into a happier person.
Into someone so I can be happy
Desiring transformation through the partner's influence for the sake of happiness.
I need you to hold me you're the mold so sculpt me
Repeating the need for the partner's embrace to mold and sculpt the speaker into happiness.
Into someone so I can be happy
Reiterating the desire for transformation through the partner's support for happiness.
Someday in the back of my mind I will find you and our love will combine
Anticipating a future where love will be rediscovered and united.
And we'll see who had the most of it inside
Pondering and comparing who had more love within them.
It's the same way when fighting in silence and your name is gone from my mind
Repeating the description of silent conflict and the partner's name being absent from the mind.
I feel the same damn way when you tell me that you're fine
Re-experiencing the same emotional state when the partner claims to be fine.
I need you to hold me you're the mold so sculpt me
Expressing a need for the partner's embrace to mold and sculpt the speaker into a happier person.
Into someone so I can be happy
Desiring transformation through the partner's influence for the sake of happiness.
I need you to hold me you're the mold so sculpt me
Repeating the need for the partner's embrace to mold and sculpt the speaker into happiness.
Into someone so I can be happy
Reiterating the desire for transformation through the partner's support for happiness.
