Lyrics
It's a Friday night sitting all alone in my room
Expressing loneliness on a Friday night, isolated in a room.
Cause I'm a fool for loving you
Acknowledging being foolish for still loving someone.
You're out with your same old friends
Noting that the person is out with the same group of friends.
So I'll just have to pretend
Accepting the need to pretend that everything is okay.
That we're still doing just alright
Pretending that the relationship is still fine.
That we're tearing the dotted line
Suggesting a metaphorical separation represented by a dotted line.
Cause girl I think that you're just biding your time (ya)
Speculating that the person is just waiting for the right time to leave.
I can't take it no more
Expressing emotional distress and frustration.
Cause I know
Anticipating a forthcoming revelation or realization.
You're leaving me it's clear to see
Stating the clear observation that the person is leaving.
We were flying high now we're crashing low
Describing the shift from a high point to a low point in the relationship.
It's not politics but the way you lie is sick now
Comparing the partner's deceit to sickness, unrelated to politics.
Saying you still care
Referencing false reassurances of care from the partner.
So I let it down and let it go
Letting go of the relationship and its illusions.
Cause you're the one I can't control
Acknowledging a lack of control over the person.
You're leaving me It's clear to see wow
Reiterating the realization that the person is leaving.
Girl just do it now
Urging the partner to end the relationship.
Remember Friday nights we'd sit all alone in your room
Recalling shared moments on Friday nights in the past.
Spend our time jamming to tunes
Remembering enjoyable times spent together.
But now there's only silence in my head
Highlighting the current silence and emptiness.
A short time ago you said you were only mine
Contrasting a previous claim of exclusivity with the current situation.
But now we tore off the line
Indicating the separation represented by tearing off a line.
That kept us from drifting away
Reflecting on the drifting apart despite efforts to stay connected.
I can't fake it no more
Expressing an inability to fake emotions any longer.
Cause I know
Reiterating the awareness of the impending departure.
You're leaving me it's clear to see
Restating the realization that the person is leaving.
We were flying high now we're crashing low
Describing the descent from a positive state to a low point.
It's not politics but the way you lie is sick now
Emphasizing the partner's deceptive behavior, unrelated to politics.
Saying you still care
Referencing insincere claims of still caring.
So I let it down and let it go
Letting go of illusions and accepting the reality of the breakup.
Cause you're the one I can't control
Expressing a lack of control over the departing partner.
You're leaving me It's clear to see wow
Reiterating the realization that the person is leaving.
You're leaving me it's clear to see
Repeating the acknowledgment of the partner's departure.
We were flying high now we're crashing low
Reiterating the shift from a high point to a low point in the relationship.
It's not politics but the way you lie is sick now
Reemphasizing the partner's deceptive behavior, unrelated to politics.
Saying you still care
Recalling insincere claims of still caring from the partner.
So I let it down and let it go
Letting go of illusions and accepting the reality of the breakup.
Cause you're the one I can't control
Expressing a lack of control over the departing partner.
You're leaving me It's clear to see wow
Reiterating the realization that the person is leaving.
Girl just do it now
Urging the partner to end the relationship immediately.
