Lyrics

Seems as though you're here again

Expresses the recurrence of a situation or person.

Even so this day won't end

Despite the situation, the day seems endless.

Always a step behind me, been

Someone consistently lags behind, creating a vision that is internally blinding.

Creates a vision that blinds within

The presence of this person or situation causes inner turmoil and confusion.

If you could only see

A wish for understanding or empathy from the other person.


The thought the burns inside

Internal thoughts that cause emotional pain.

Gives you a feeling that you think will hurt me

The speaker perceives a malicious intent in the other person's emotions.

A sight that burn the eyes

An image that is emotionally distressing and hard to bear.

And you'll catch me and I know it kills you

Anticipating consequences and acknowledging that the truth hurts the speaker.

IT KILLS YOU

Emphasizing the emotional impact of the truth on both parties.


Flip the switch and start again

Suggests a desire to reset or start anew.

Get the feeling every now and then

A recurring feeling of being observed or judged.

That your eyes are watching me

The feeling of being scrutinized by others.

Creates a burning inside of me

The scrutiny creates an internal burning sensation.

I wish that you could feel

The speaker wishes the other person could empathize with their struggles.

ALL THE SHIT THAT YOU PUT ME THROUGH

Expresses frustration with the hardships caused by the other person.


The thought that burns inside

Reiteration of internal thoughts causing emotional pain.

Gives you a feeling that you think will hurt me

Perception that the other person intends to cause harm.

A sight that burns the eyes

An image that is emotionally distressing and hard to bear.

And you'll never catch me and I know it kills you

A belief that the other person will never understand.

IT KILLS YOU

Reiteration of the emotional impact of the truth.


Of course I saw you stumble

Observation of the other person's struggle or failure.

Always a step ahead

The other person consistently stays ahead despite challenges.

I coulda sworn I saw you say

Perceived communication from the other person about confusion.

Your confused in what you see

The speaker interprets the other person's confusion about what they see.

Confusing what I mean

The speaker acknowledges the potential for miscommunication.

I'll show you everything you thought you'd ever taught to me

A promise to reveal and explain everything to the other person.


The thought that burns inside

Reiteration of internal thoughts causing emotional pain.

Gives you a feeling that you think will hurt me

Perception that the other person intends to cause harm.

A sight that burns the eyes

An image that is emotionally distressing and hard to bear.

And you'll never catch me and I know it kills you

A belief that the other person will never understand.

IT KILLS YOU

Reiteration of the emotional impact of the truth.


SO THINK ABOUT THIS AS YOU WALK AWAY

Reflection on consequences as the other person walks away.

YOU LOST IT ALL AND NOW

A realization of losing everything and the impending downfall.

IT'S COMING DOWN

Acknowledgment of the approaching downfall.

IT'S COMING DOWN

Reiteration of the imminent downfall.


Of course I saw you stumble

Observation of the other person's struggle or failure.

Always a step ahead

The other person consistently stays ahead despite challenges.

I coulda sworn I saw you say

Perceived communication from the other person about confusion.

Your confused in what you see

The speaker interprets the other person's confusion about what they see.

Confusing what I mean

The speaker acknowledges the potential for miscommunication.
