Lyrics
Maybe we should talk about us
Initiating a conversation about the relationship.
Left it in the summer hot mess oh
Leaving unresolved issues from a chaotic summer.
And i know that you know that we know
Acknowledging mutual awareness of problems.
That we’re to blame
Recognizing joint responsibility for the relationship issues.
Deeper and deeper we’ve fallen into the game
Describing a deepening involvement in a complex situation.
Talking out loud but you don’t say a thing
Expressing communication difficulties despite talking.
Being with you it was all just a dream
Reflecting on a past relationship as if it were a dream.
Holding on now to stolen memories
Clutching onto memories that may have been taken dishonestly.
Take me down this road
Requesting to continue on the current path of the relationship.
or let me go
Offering the option to let go of the relationship.
Don’t let me go
Expressing a desire not to be abandoned.
Take me down this road
Reiterating the request to continue the relationship.
Or let me go
Repeating the option to end the relationship.
Don’t let me go
Emphasizing the fear of being abandoned.
Someone’s gotta give it up real soon
Implying the need for someone to take responsibility soon.
Cuz i’m always reaching out for you
Expressing a constant longing for the other person.
Lost in the middle
Feeling lost in the middle of the relationship's complexities.
You try, but you can’t explain
Noting the difficulty in explaining oneself despite trying.
Walking away, but i love you just the same
Choosing to walk away while maintaining love for the other person.
Take me down this road
Repeating the choice between continuing or ending the relationship.
or let me go
Reiterating the option to let go of the relationship.
Don’t let me go
Expressing the fear of being abandoned.
Take me down this road
Requesting a decision to continue or end the relationship.
Or let me go
Offering the option to let go of the relationship.
Don’t let me go
Repeating the desire not to be abandoned.
