Say Goodbye
Unraveling Love's Lost Symphony
Lyrics
Got a cab on Broadway and 72nd
Describes taking a cab at a specific location
She was blacked out, high as hell
Refers to a person heavily intoxicated or under the influence of drugs
Passed out and wrecked it
Suggests the person passed out and caused damage
I can't tell you how, I can't tell you why
Expresses inability to explain how or why the incident occurred
No, not like this
Rejects the current situation
No, not tonight
Emphasizes the unwillingness to deal with the situation at the present moment
There I go again, stuck in that moment
Reflects being stuck in a recurring thought or memory
God, I'm wearing thin, just give me something
Expresses desperation for some sort of resolution or change
'Cause I need you now, more than ever
Expresses a strong need for someone or something
I can't make it out
Uncertainty about understanding the situation
'Cause we were on fire
Recalls a passionate or intense past
Before the mind games
Refers to manipulation or deceitful behavior
Before the world changed overnight
Reflects a sudden and drastic change in circumstances
She was all mine before the hurricane
Indicates ownership or possession of someone before a disaster
Before we had a chance to say goodbye
Expresses not having the opportunity to bid farewell
Thinking back on the time when the big house was empty
Recollection of a time when a place was empty
Now I'm just up all night with the letters that you sent me
Spending nights reading received letters
Oh, the ways she loves
Reflects on the different ways of love experienced
Oh, the ways she lied
Contrasts the ways of love with deceitful actions
Oh, I lost it all that night
Expresses a feeling of losing everything on a particular night
There I go again, stuck in that moment
Reiterates being stuck in a recurring thought or memory
God, I'm wearing thin, just give me something
Expresses desperation for some sort of resolution or change
'Cause I need you now, more than ever
Expresses a strong need for someone or something
I can't make it out
Uncertainty about understanding the situation
'Cause we were on fire
Recalls a passionate or intense past
Before the mind games
Refers to manipulation or deceitful behavior
Before the world changed overnight
Reflects a sudden and drastic change in circumstances
Yes, she was all mine before the hurricane
Indicates ownership or possession of someone before a disaster
Before we had a chance to say goodbye
Expresses not having the opportunity to bid farewell
Now I'm getting wasted, 'cause I don't wanna face it
Describes getting intoxicated to avoid facing reality
I'm still tryna chase it down tonight
Continuing to pursue something despite difficulties
Feeling like I'm fading, gotta find the way back
Feeling like losing oneself and trying to find a way back
To a time and place when you were mine
Yearning for a past time when a certain person was theirs
So I could say goodbye
Expresses a desire to bid farewell properly
So I could say goodbye
Reiterates the desire to properly bid farewell
