Lyrics
How could you want me
Expressing surprise or disbelief that someone would desire the speaker.
When I didn’t want you
Acknowledging a lack of reciprocation in past feelings toward the other person.
I couldn’t realise just how you adore me
Realizing belatedly the extent of the other person's admiration for the speaker.
and I look straight through you
Admitting to not recognizing or appreciating the other person's presence.
I wasted all your love
Conveying a sense of regret for squandering the affection and devotion received.
On foolish games when I should’ve been there
Reflecting on past actions, expressing remorse for spending time on unimportant pursuits.
Im far too late, got a feeling you don’t care
Suspecting that it is too late to rectify mistakes, perceiving a lack of concern from the other person.
I regret what I’ve done and I tried to salvage some
Expressing remorse for past actions and attempting to salvage any remaining love.
of that love you had to give, I’m begging baby please now
Pleading for the other person's love and forgiveness.
Don’t really know what you’re missing
Emphasizing a repeated theme: the realization of what was missed only after it is gone.
’til its gone
-Don’t really know what you’re missing
-’til its gone
-Don’t really know what you’re missing
-’til its gone
-Don’t really know what you’re missing
-I remember every night I’d pick a fight
Recalling past conflicts and missed opportunities for intimacy.
your hands upon my waist, I push you away
-too far gone to right these wrongs
-god I miss your taste.
Expressing a yearning for the physical and emotional connection lost.
How could you need me
Pondering the paradox of being needed now after not needing the other person in the past.
when I didn’t need you
Admitting to a past lack of dependency on the other person.
at least thats what i told myself
Describing a coping mechanism of self-deception to endure the day.
to get through the day
Recalling a belief that the other person would find their own path.
thought you’d find your own way too
Expressing a current need for the other person's love.
and now I need your love
Admitting to wasted time when the speaker should have been present for the other person.
but I wasted days
Feeling the difficulty of maintaining a connection and suspecting a lack of care from the other person.
when I should’ve been there
Expressing regret for past actions and attempting to salvage any remaining love.
so hard to stay
Struggling to remain in the relationship due to perceived indifference from the other person.
got feeling you don’t care
Reiterating a sense of futility and lack of concern from the other person.
I regret what I’ve done and I tried to salvage some
Expressing remorse for past actions and attempting to salvage any remaining love.
of that love you had to give, I’m begging baby please now
Repeating the plea for the other person's love and acknowledgment.
