Split Lips
Unraveling the Aftermath
Lyrics
So many times you ran yourself over
Reflecting on numerous instances of self-sabotage or self-destructive behavior.
Talking back on a cold-crying shoulder
Responding defiantly or defensively to a cold and unsympathetic environment.
Get in a car with the taxi driver
Choosing a path with uncertainty, symbolized by getting in a car with a taxi driver.
Sympathy of strangers, hoping to find her
Seeking solace from unfamiliar people, with the hope of finding understanding or connection.
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
Repetition for emphasis or to convey a sense of longing or intensity.
Collisions came as consequence
Facing repercussions or negative outcomes as a result of previous actions.
Watching the scene after the accident
Observing the aftermath of a collision, possibly both literal and metaphorical.
Mixed-up words, find out what she meant
Struggling to comprehend confusing or contradictory statements.
Witness the scene after the accident
Being present and witnessing the aftermath of a significant event.
Passersby, nothing to see here at all
People passing by, indifferent to the situation, suggesting a lack of concern or empathy.
Fast-forward talking yourself into the wall
Rapidly advancing in conversation, possibly leading to self-destruction or failure.
You never asked for an audience
Not seeking attention or validation, contrasting with the next line.
So why'd you care 'bout the reviews you're gonna get?
Questioning the concern for reviews or opinions when one hasn't sought an audience.
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
Repetition for emphasis or to convey a sense of longing or intensity.
Mixed-up words, find out what she meant
Repeating the theme of struggling to understand confusing or contradictory statements.
Witness the scene after the accident
Witnessing the aftermath, possibly of a personal or emotional collision.
Collisions came as consequence
Repercussions as a result of past actions, emphasizing cause and effect.
