The Fix Up
Navigating Love's Crossroads: State Champs' 'The Fix Up' Insights
Lyrics
So what’s it gonna be, the fix up or the falling out?
Contemplating between repairing the relationship or ending it.
It’s hard to get a read on the signals that you’re sending out
Difficulty understanding the mixed signals being conveyed.
And if you wanna leave, then there’s not much to talk about
If the partner wants to leave, there's little to discuss.
I’m looking for relief, but still wondering if you’ll stick around
Seeking relief but uncertain if the partner will stay.
For once I wanna take the blame tonight
Desire to take responsibility for the situation.
I wanna get lost and fall behind
Wishing to be lost and fall behind in the relationship.
But I don’t wanna let it go
Reluctant to let go of the relationship.
No, I don’t wanna let it go
Reiteration of not wanting to let go.
It’s funny how you found complacency
Noting the partner's complacency and its impact.
You’re tuning out the thought of you and me
The partner is ignoring thoughts of the speaker and the relationship.
And now you gotta let it go
Encouraging the partner to let go of negative emotions.
Now you gotta let me go
Requesting the partner to let the speaker go.
I thought the worst was you giving up
Initial concern was partner giving up, but now chasing emotions to be okay.
But now we’re chasing feelings just to be ok
Emphasizing the pursuit of feelings for emotional stability.
You knew the northern weather wasn’t enough
Acknowledging that the partner knew the relationship lacked something.
Don’t bother at all
Suggesting it's better not to bother at all.
It’s all drifting away with the way we used to be
Reflecting on the drift from the way the relationship used to be.
So what did you expect, a rescue or a getaway?
Questioning whether the partner expected a rescue or an escape.
If I had to bet, I’d take you getting over me
Expressing a bet that the partner will get over the speaker.
So tell it to my face, don’t hide behind poetry
Asking the partner to communicate directly, not through poetry.
I’ll find a better place for you and all your apathy
Promise to find a better place for the partner and their indifference.
For once I wanna take the blame tonight
Reiteration of the desire to take responsibility for the situation.
I wanna get lost and fall behind
Wishing to be lost and fall behind, maintaining reluctance to let go.
But I don’t wanna let it go
Reluctance to let go of the relationship.
No, I don’t wanna let it go
Reiteration of not wanting to let go.
It’s funny how you found complacency
Highlighting the partner's complacency again.
You’re tuning out the thought of you and me
Partner tuning out thoughts of the speaker and the relationship.
And now you gotta let it go
Encouraging the partner to let go of negative emotions.
Now you gotta let me go
Requesting the partner to let the speaker go.
I thought the worst was you giving up
Initial concern was partner giving up, but now chasing emotions to be okay.
But now we’re chasing feelings just to be ok
Emphasizing the pursuit of feelings for emotional stability.
You knew the northern weather wasn’t enough
Acknowledging that the partner knew the relationship lacked something.
Don’t bother at all
Suggesting it's better not to bother at all.
It’s all drifting away with the way we used to be
Reflecting on the drift from the way the relationship used to be.
Where do you get off causing problems
Questioning the partner's actions causing problems.
Where do you get off when I’m not around
Questioning the partner's actions when the speaker is absent.
It’s hard to brush it off when you’re constantly calling me
Difficulty in ignoring constant calls from the partner.
Cause baby you get off when I’m down
Suggesting the partner finds satisfaction when the speaker is down.
I thought the worst was you giving up
Initial concern was partner giving up, but now chasing emotions to be okay.
But now we’re chasing feelings just to be ok
Emphasizing the pursuit of feelings for emotional stability.
You knew the northern weather wasn’t enough
Acknowledging that the partner knew the relationship lacked something.
Don’t bother at all
Suggesting it's better not to bother at all.
It’s all drifting away with the way we used to be
Reflecting on the drift from the way the relationship used to be.
