Lyrics
When did you become something that I can't renew
Reflecting on the transformation of a relationship into something irreparable.
And I know that I don't miss you, but I know I learned a lot from you
Acknowledging personal growth gained from a past relationship despite not missing the person.
Remember all the times, the times, the times
Nostalgic recollection of shared moments.
The rhythm of the night, the night, the night
Emphasizing the repetitive nature of life's challenges using the metaphor of the night's rhythm.
Going home at nine, at nine, at nine
Referencing a routine event, possibly leaving work at a specific time.
Say you got passion but it's always a fight
Questioning the authenticity of someone's passion when it consistently leads to conflict.
You can't see the vision I see and that's why you can't be with me
Asserting that the person cannot perceive the speaker's aspirations, hindering a relationship.
You were never family
Denying a familial connection with the person.
I'll come out better and I know that you will see
Expressing confidence in personal improvement and anticipating acknowledgment from the other party.
See, me, like you never did before
Desiring to be seen in a new light by the person.
You act like you don't care but I know your hearts still sore
Highlighting a perceived emotional distance, despite evidence of lingering pain.
I won't lie, mine is a little bit too
Admitting personal emotional struggles while trying to move on.
Tryna get over all the memories of just me and you
Struggling to overcome memories shared exclusively with the person.
You pushed me into seeing the realer me
Acknowledging the person's role in revealing the speaker's true self.
It's been quite a journey and I ain't got too much pride
Reflecting on a challenging journey with humility.
The fact that it ain't easy is not something I will hide
Acknowledging the difficulty but refusing to conceal it.
You are just not like me, sort of like a mystery
Pointing out differences between the speaker and the person, describing the person as mysterious.
You can't see the vision I see and that's why you can't be with me
Reiterating the disconnect in visions, emphasizing its impact on the relationship.
Perfect is, not what I'd call myself
Rejecting the notion of perfection for oneself.
I'm no where near that but at least I love myself
Acknowledging self-love despite being far from perfection.
Actually, still working on that
Admitting ongoing efforts to improve self-love.
I'm at low a low point but I'm trying to bounce back
Expressing a low point but maintaining a commitment to bounce back.
When did you become something that I can't renew (Renew)
Repetition of the opening line, emphasizing the irreversible change in the relationship.
And I know that I don't miss you, (Don't miss you) but I know I learned a lot from you
Reiterating the lack of longing for the person but acknowledging the lessons learned.
Remember all the times, the times, the times
Recalling shared moments with emphasis on repetition.
The rhythm of the night, the night, the night (Night, night, night, night)
Metaphorical reference to the challenges faced during the night.
Going home at nine, at nine, at nine (Nine, nine, nine, nine)
Repetition of a routine event, possibly indicating a sense of predictability.
Say you got passion but it's always a fight
Questioning the authenticity of passion when it consistently leads to conflict.
You can't see the vision I see and that's why you can't be with me (No, no)
Reiterating the inability of the person to understand the speaker's vision, hindering the relationship.
You were never family
Denying a familial connection with the person.
I'll come out better and I know that you will see
Expressing confidence in personal improvement and anticipating acknowledgment from the other party.
Reminiscing the few times of dancing under strobe lights
Reflecting on past moments of dancing under strobe lights.
My eyes were locked on you, and only if I knew
Regretting not realizing the potential fallout while locked in a gaze.
Everything would fall apart, and we would be back at the start the start, the start
Reflecting on the breakdown of the relationship and the possibility of starting anew.
Be back at the start
Emphasizing the desire to return to the beginning.
When did you become something that I can't renew
Repetition of the opening line, concluding the lyrics with a sense of irreversibility.
