Lyrics

Putting on lipstick in the bathroom at the doctors

Preparing oneself superficially in a place associated with health while having an upcoming social event.

I’ve got a party after this blood test

Despite undergoing a medical procedure, there's an upcoming gathering afterward.

And nobody there really wants me to come

Perception that one isn't genuinely wanted at the event.

But we’ll all pretend to ignore it

Intention to collectively ignore or overlook the feeling of not being wanted.

I have crawled over town with your hair in my mouth

Metaphorically depicting the persistence of memories or remnants of a past relationship.

Just trying to tweeze all the last of you out

Struggling to rid oneself of lingering emotions or attachments related to the past.

I only ever stay to get some of the blame

Staying in a situation to share the blame and not escape responsibility.

And to hear the way you handle my name

Curiosity about how one's name is spoken or addressed by another.

Shield the mark on my skin from the bite of the wind

Protecting oneself from emotional pain or external influences.

With a ribbon around no light gets in

Creating barriers to prevent emotional exposure or vulnerability.

I’ve got a vitamin d deficiency now

Developing a deficiency potentially linked to lack of sunlight exposure and its implications.

I heard guys like girls who are prone to passing out

Belief or stereotype about attractiveness regarding certain health conditions.

But you keep saying how all the other girls got ready in time

Comparison to others and feeling inadequate for not meeting certain expectations.

All the other girls got ready in time

Reiteration of feeling left behind or inadequate in comparison to others.

And I’m here halfway out

Feeling emotionally distant or disconnected from a situation.

You are somewhere in the house

Awareness of someone's presence nearby, despite emotional distance.

You didn’t want what you saw when you saw what you wanted

Realization that desires don’t align with the actual reality.

All the other girls are managing fine

Perception of others managing well despite personal struggles.

All the other girls have stayed the line

Feeling left out for not conforming or enduring difficulties as others do.

And I’m here at the glass

Metaphorically stuck or blocked from progression or participation.

Begging please come let me past

Desire to move forward despite obstacles or restrictions.

So I didn’t taste how you’d dreamed when you dreamed of your wanting

Not fulfilling someone's expectations or desires.

Ooh, ooh, ah, ah

Non-verbal expressions or emotions.

So just keep saying how all the other girls got ready in time

Reiteration of feeling inadequate compared to others.

All the other girls got ready in time

Reiteration of feeling left behind or inadequate compared to others.

And I’m here halfway out

Feeling emotionally distant or disconnected from a situation (repeated).

You are somewhere in the house

Awareness of someone's presence nearby, despite emotional distance (repeated).

You didn’t want what you saw when you saw what you wanted

Realization that desires don’t align with the actual reality (repeated).

I didn’t taste how you’d dreamed when you dreamed of your wanting

Not fulfilling someone's expectations or desires (repeated).

You didn’t want what you saw when you saw what you wanted

Realization that desires don’t align with the actual reality (repeated).
