Lyrics
The season's gonna change before we know it

And you say that your feelings might change too

And I don't want to hear o that nonsense ringing in my ears
The speaker expresses a dislike for hearing such uncertainty and negativity.
And I'm not gonna cry because of you
The speaker asserts that they won't cry over the partner's actions or decisions.
I like it when you tell me what you're thinking

I love the way you kiss when you've been drinking

I love the way we wrestle on the floor to stand up bruised
The speaker enjoys the physicality of their relationship, even if it leaves them bruised.
But I hate the way I wake up feeling used
The speaker dislikes the emotional aftermath, feeling used after such physical intimacy.
And my broken tongue and sad lips
The speaker's ability to communicate is hindered (broken tongue, sad lips), and words fail them.
Have nothing left to say
The speaker's emotions are so overwhelming that words cannot adequately express them.
My tattered heart and torn parts
The speaker's heart is damaged, and parts of them are torn, possibly due to the relationship.
Are only in your way
The speaker acknowledges that their emotional state is a barrier in the relationship.
I'd rather not feel pain than be your lover
The speaker would prefer to avoid pain even if it means not being in a romantic relationship.
I'd rather be your lover than your friend
The speaker values being in a romantic relationship with the partner more than being just friends.
I'd rather wrap these arms around
The speaker would rather embrace the partner's cold heart than have nothing at all.
Your cold heart than have nothing
The speaker expresses a preference for emotional connection despite potential hardships.
I'd rather be dead blind than see the end
The speaker would rather be oblivious to the inevitable end than face the reality of it.
And my broken tongue and sad lips
Reiteration of the speaker's communication difficulties and emotional struggle.
Have nothing left to say
Reiteration of the idea that words are insufficient to convey the speaker's emotions.
My tattered heart and torn parts
Reiteration of the damaged heart and the impact it has on the relationship.
Will make you go away
The speaker suggests that their emotional state will drive the partner away.
