Lyrics
Push away the way I feel when I'm around you
Expressing a desire to distance oneself from the emotions experienced in the presence of someone.
And don't mistake my pain for surface level attitude
Cautioning against misinterpreting emotional pain as a mere surface-level attitude.
I try I try I try, the feelings never mutual
Repeated attempts to establish a mutual connection, but the feelings are not reciprocated.
But when you paint my body god I'm feeling wonderful
Finding a sense of joy and wonder when the person metaphorically "paints" the speaker's body, suggesting a positive impact.
Scared of what my friends might say
Expressing fear or hesitation about potential judgments from friends.
But when it comes to going out
Choosing to avoid social situations, possibly due to anxiety or discomfort.
I'll just steer clear
Deciding to stay away from certain social scenarios to protect oneself.
The flowers grow
Metaphorically referring to personal growth and flourishing like flowers.
I'm overgrown
Feeling a sense of abundance or excess in personal growth.
I'll stay right here
Choosing to remain in the current state of personal development.
Sorry that our time has run out
Expressing regret or sorrow about the end of a relationship or connection.
Been away from friends that never seem to understand,
Being away from friends who fail to comprehend the speaker's experiences and emotions.
But now I'm back my thoughts subtract I sit in fear
Returning to a familiar environment but feeling anxious and subtracting thoughts.
I don't know who's here who's not I never got a chance
Expressing uncertainty about the people present and missed opportunities for connection.
It's not my fault I'm lost in thought I'm not really here
Explaining that being lost in thought is not intentional; the speaker feels detached from the present.
Scared of what my friends might say
Reiterating fear of potential judgments from friends.
But when it comes to going out
Choosing to avoid social situations as a response to the fear mentioned in line 20.
I'll just steer clear
Deciding to stay away from certain social scenarios for personal well-being.
The flowers grow
Metaphorically referencing personal growth and flourishing, similar to line 9.
I'm overgrown
Feeling an abundance or excess in personal growth, echoing line 10.
I'll stay right here
Choosing to remain in the current state of personal development.
Sorry that our time has run out.
Repeating the expression of regret or sorrow about the end of a relationship or connection.
Sorry that our time has run out.
Reiterating the expression of regret or sorrow about the end of a relationship or connection.
