Lyrics
Remember how we tried
Reflecting on past attempts or experiences
Remember you and I
Nostalgia about a shared history between "you and I"
I wasn't feeling sure
Uncertainty or lack of confidence in a situation
We'd beat the summerbore
Expressing a desire to overcome the monotony or dullness of summer
Remember how we'd hide
Recalling moments of secrecy or seclusion
Down at the top of the line
Referencing a specific location ("top of the line")
I didn't know for sure
Admitting uncertainty about a future outcome
We'd shake the summer bore
Expressing hope or intention to overcome the boredom of summer
You can say that I'm your goon.
Acceptance of being someone's loyal follower or supporter
You can say that I'm your fool
Acknowledging one's role as a fool for someone
But no one ever told you about that day
Highlighting a day or event that hasn't been openly discussed
No one ever told you about betrayal
Revealing a theme of betrayal in the narrative
No ever told you that it's true.
Asserting the truth about undisclosed aspects of the relationship
All the things that made you stay
Recognition of factors that influenced staying in the relationship
Remember how we dreamed
Revisiting shared dreams and aspirations
How easy it all seemed
Nostalgia for the simplicity of past aspirations
I wasn't feeling sure
Similar to line 3, expressing uncertainty or lack of confidence
We'd beat the summer bore
Reiteration of the desire to overcome summer boredom
Remember all the lies
Recalling instances of dishonesty or deception
The things we had to hide
Alluding to hidden aspects of the relationship
I didn't know for sure
Similar to line 8, uncertainty about the future course of the relationship
We'd shake the summer bore
Reiterating the intention to overcome summer boredom
You can say that I'm your goon.
Reiteration of being a loyal supporter or follower
You can say that I'm your fool
Reiteration of accepting the role of a fool
But no one ever told you about that day
Revisiting an undisclosed day or event with potential negative connotations
No one ever told you about betrayal
Emphasizing the theme of betrayal in the relationship
No ever told you that it's true.
Reasserting the truth about undisclosed aspects of the relationship
All the things that made you stay
Reiteration of recognizing factors that influenced staying in the relationship
