Lyrics

It's an episode

Expressing a situation or occurrence

I'm out of control

Feeling a lack of self-control

Think I won't leave

Indicating a reluctance to leave

Then watch me go

Asserting the decision to leave

Don't want me here

Acknowledging a desire for departure

Then make that clear

Requesting clear communication about the desire to leave

Singing your songs

Expressing a dislike for hearing certain songs

I don't want to hear

Rejecting the emotional connection conveyed through songs

Say my name

Inviting the acknowledgment of one's name

If you want me to stay

Condition for staying involves finding a new partner

Find a new girl and

Encouraging the pursuit of a new romantic interest

Throw me away

Acceptance of being discarded

Don't you miss me

Expressing the absence of reciprocal feelings

Like I miss you

Comparing the intensity of missing someone

Miss the way we were

Nostalgia for a past relationship

Just me and you

Reflecting on the past when it was just "me and you"

I don't want you to leave like everyone else

Desire for the person not to leave like others

But I know you will so I have to go first

Acknowledging the inevitability of the person leaving

I tried to get through but nothing really helps

Frustration with the inability to make a difference

You found someone new and I'm gonna get (hurt)

Acknowledging the pain of seeing the person with someone else

I tried so hard to get you to care

Efforts to make the person care

Every time there was nothing there

Perceiving a lack of emotional response

But clearly it's me and I'm the crazy one

Self-awareness of being the one considered "crazy"

Sorry I can't be the person that I was

Apology for not being the same person as before

It's an episode

Repetition of the earlier episode

I'm out of control

Reiteration of feeling out of control

Think I won't leave

Repeating the thought of leaving

Then watch me go

Reasserting the decision to leave

Don't want me here

Reiteration of not wanting to be present

Then make that clear

Reiterating the desire for clarity in the decision to leave

Singing your songs

Reaffirming the dislike for certain songs

I don't want to hear

Reiterating the rejection of emotional connection through songs

Say my name

Repeating the invitation to acknowledge one's name

If you want me to stay

Reiteration of the condition for staying

Find a new girl and

Repeating the encouragement to find a new romantic interest

Throw me away

Reiteration of acceptance of being discarded

Don't you miss me

Repetition of the absence of reciprocal feelings

Like I miss you

Reiteration of comparing the intensity of missing someone

Miss the way we were

Repetition of nostalgia for the past relationship

Just me and you

Repetition of reflection on the past when it was just "me and you"

I tried so hard to get you to care

Reiteration of efforts to make the person care

Every time there was nothing there

Repetition of perceiving a lack of emotional response

But clearly it's me and I'm the crazy one

Reiteration of self-awareness of being considered "crazy"

Sorry I can't be the person that I was

Repetition of apology for not being the same person as before
