Lyrics

You feel like a different person

You're feeling like someone else

With the same old tongue

Despite feeling different, your words remain familiar

You speak with a different accent now for fun

You're intentionally using a different way of speaking for enjoyment


I guess you're changing

There's an acknowledgment of your transformation

I guess you're changing

Reiteration of the feeling of change

It had to happen eventually

Change was an inevitable part of your journey


'Cause you can change your hair

You can alter superficial things like appearance, but fundamentally you remain the same

Change your clothes

Changing external factors doesn't alter the core of who you are

Change your friends

Even altering friends doesn’t change the essence of your being

But you're still the same to me even though

To the speaker, despite changes, you remain unchanged

You speak with a different accent now for fun

Repeated reference to the altered way of speaking for pleasure


I guess you're changing

Reiteration of the acknowledgment of change

I guess you're changing

-

It had to happen eventually

Reiteration that change was inevitable


You fall away from yourself

You're drifting away from your true self

You don't need to erode

Emphasis on not needing to deteriorate or break down

You don't need to collapse

Encouragement to avoid collapse


I let my worries relapse

The speaker is letting go of worries

Let my fingers relax

The speaker is relaxing in the company of your former self

Around your former self

The speaker's fingers were previously tense around your past self


I guess you're changing

Reiteration of the acknowledgment of change

I guess you're changing

-

It had to happen eventually

Reiteration that change was inevitable


All these things stick out to me

Various aspects stand out to the speaker

Changing oh so frequently

Highlighting how rapidly and frequently change occurs

Fucking for the fun of it

Engaging in intimate activities without deeper meaning

Crying as you ask him if

Expressing emotions while questioning another's ability to change

He can change too

Asking if someone else can change for you

He can change for you

Asking if someone can transform for your benefit


They talk in tongues, light up a fire

Engaging in mysterious conversations, expressing desires

Speak with vision and soft desire

Communicating with passion and aspiration

Buy blacker shoes, cut shorter hair

Changing physical attributes to fit an image

Use bigger words like debonair

Using sophisticated language and style


You say you're different but you're still the same

Stating a claim of being different despite appearing the same

You say you're different but you're still the same

Reiteration of claiming to be different despite appearing the same


All these things stick out to me

Reiteration that various things stand out to the speaker

All these things stick out to me
