Lyrics

Sweep it under the rug

Sweeping problems or issues under the rug, avoiding confrontation or dealing with difficulties.

Hurt the ones that you love

Causing harm to the people you care about.

I can't remember when or where

Uncertain about the time or place of a significant event or change.

Sit alone with the one

Sitting alone with someone who brings positivity and brightness to life.

Who shines her light on the sun

A person (possibly romantic) who brings light and positivity to the speaker's life.

A darker day now I have lost my way

Feeling lost and facing a darker, challenging period in life.


You think I've changed, but I'm the same

Addressing a perception that the speaker has changed, asserting that they remain the same.


If it really matters

Expressing willingness to do anything if it truly matters.

I'll do anything you ask me

Openness to fulfilling requests, but acknowledging the possibility of making mistakes or facing challenges.

Doesn't mean I'm never gonna fall

Acknowledging the inevitability of making mistakes or experiencing setbacks.

Wrap your arms around me

Seeking comfort and support from others.

Cause there is no need to disagree

Encouraging harmony and understanding instead of disagreement.

Set your mind on better days

Focusing on positive and optimistic thoughts for the future.

I don't know how I got this way

Expressing confusion or uncertainty about the current state of the speaker's life.


Breaking all of the rules

Defying conventional norms or expectations, possibly in a rebellious manner.

Act like some kind of fool

Behaving in a way that may be considered foolish or unconventional.

I'm on my own and you will never understand

Feeling isolated and misunderstood by others.

Building the walls around me

Creating emotional barriers or protection around oneself.


If it really matters

Reiterating the willingness to do anything if it truly matters.

I'll do anything you ask me

Repeating the theme of being open to fulfilling requests, with an awareness of potential challenges.

Doesn't mean I'm never gonna fall

Acknowledging the possibility of making mistakes or facing difficulties in the future.

Wrap your arms around me

Seeking emotional support and reassurance from others.

Cause there is no need to disagree

Promoting harmony and discouraging disagreement in relationships.

Set your mind on better days

Encouraging a positive mindset and hopeful outlook on life.

I don't know how I got this way

Expressing continued uncertainty about the path the speaker has taken in life.


Enough about me

Shifting the focus away from the speaker to other matters.

I've tried so hard

Expressing effort and determination in facing challenges.

Stuck in a hard place, let down your guard

Feeling trapped or caught in a difficult situation, urging vulnerability.

And soak in summer daze

Immersing oneself in pleasant, carefree moments.

Trippin' with craze I close my eyes

Experiencing excitement or confusion, possibly in a carefree state.


If it really matters

Reiterating the willingness to do anything if it truly matters.

I'll do anything you ask me

Reaffirming the openness to fulfilling requests, acknowledging potential challenges.

Doesn't mean I'm never gonna fall

Emphasizing that mistakes or setbacks may still occur despite good intentions.

Wrap your arms around me

Seeking emotional comfort and closeness in relationships.

Cause there is no need to disagree

Promoting understanding and unity over disagreement.

Set your mind on better days

Encouraging a positive and forward-looking mindset.

I don't know how I got this way

Reiterating the uncertainty about the current state or choices in the speaker's life.
