Lyrics
She's been lying to herself
She has been deceiving herself.
She don't want to know it
She prefers not to confront or acknowledge the truth.
Neither do I if I'm truly honest
The speaker also avoids facing the truth if they are completely honest.
Money's mighty tight
Financial constraints are significant.
She don't want to show it
She doesn't want to reveal her financial struggles.
Always getting by living on a promise
She manages to survive by relying on unfulfilled promises.
Now who's the one
Now, who is the one facing the consequences of past actions?
Living in the past
Living in the past, dwelling on history.
Still holding on to a bridge that burnt too fast
Clutching onto a relationship that ended abruptly.
Darling would you mind
Asking if it's acceptable not to revisit certain memories.
If we didn't go there
Suggesting avoiding a particular topic or place.
At least not tonight
Especially not tonight due to a headache.
I've got such a headache
Expressing a physical discomfort, possibly emotional stress.
Really would mind
Strongly prefers not to revisit a particular place.
Would you even notice
Questioning if the absence would even be noticed.
If we leave by nine
Suggesting leaving early, possibly avoiding confrontation.
We'll be home by the morning
Anticipating returning home by the morning.
Now who's the one
Reiterating the question about dwelling in the past.
Living in the past
Still holding onto the consequences of a past mistake.
Still holding on to a bridge that burnt too fast
Continuing to bear the burden of a broken relationship.
Nonstop, nowhere to get off
Describing a situation of continuous movement with no escape.
Felt like a memory
Comparing the experience to a memory, possibly a negative one.
More like a bad dream
Characterizing the experience more like a nightmare than a dream.
Hold tight we're in for a bumpy ride
Anticipating a challenging and turbulent journey ahead.
Less like a shooting star
Contrasting with the fleeting nature of a shooting star, suggesting a prolonged struggle.
More like a burning car
Comparing the situation to a destructive and unavoidable event.
I see you in the other side
Expressing a desire to connect with someone on the other side, but acknowledging the impossibility of reaching them.
There's no way to get to you this time
Conveying the difficulty or impossibility of reaching someone in the current circumstance.
