Lyrics
What we gonna do
Expressing uncertainty about future actions or decisions.
Are we gonna wait forever
Questioning whether waiting indefinitely is the right choice.
Cause waiting on this love
Implying that waiting for love might be futile or unproductive.
Is as good as saying never
Suggesting that waiting for love is equivalent to giving up on it.
Life's too short
Highlighting the brevity of life.
But you won't let it go
Resisting the release of something valuable or significant.
You need familiarity
Desiring the comfort of the familiar, fearing the unknown.
You're scared of the unknown
Expressing a fear or aversion to the unfamiliar.
I don't think I can be here anymore
Feeling unable to continue in the current situation.
And I need to know
Expressing a need for clarity or information.
I've seen and heard too much second hand
Having experienced too much indirectly, seeking direct experience.
And I need to go
Expressing a strong desire to leave or move on.
I wish you didn't set the rules
Regretting the establishment of difficult or restrictive rules.
Cause you've made this game so hard
Complaining about the complexity or difficulty of a relationship.
You put a price on every memory
Assigning value to memories and acknowledging the cost of keeping them.
And I pay it every time
Expressing a willingness to pay the emotional cost for memories.
But you should set the standards
Advocating for fair and reasonable standards in the relationship.
Because you set yours so high
Acknowledging the difficulty of meeting high expectations set by someone else.
I can't fight these feelings anymore
Admitting an inability to suppress certain emotions any longer.
I can't wait for your tears to dry
Expressing impatience for a resolution or emotional healing.
How will I get by
Questioning how to move forward without the familiar presence.
You're all I've ever known
Stating that the person is a significant and constant part of life.
The fortuneteller got it wrong
Reflecting on a misjudgment or misprediction by someone else.
As we depart alone
Expressing a sense of loneliness or solitude during departure.
I wish you well
Wishing well for the person despite the challenges.
I swear I really do
Affirming genuine good wishes for the well-being of the person.
I hope you get a break someday
Expressing hope for a positive change or opportunity in the future.
I hope your dreams come true
Wishing for the fulfillment of the person's aspirations and dreams.
I don't think I can be here anymore
Reiterating the inability to continue in the current situation.
And I need to know
Reiterating the need for clarity or information.
I've seen and heard too much second hand
Reiterating the impact of indirect experiences on the decision to leave.
And I need to go
Reiterating a strong desire to depart or move forward.
I see your shadow beneath the door
Noticing the presence of the person indirectly, possibly through shadows.
I hear your tears roll down
Acknowledging the person's emotional state, specifically tears.
Onto the floor they fall
Visualizing tears falling like raindrops in a storm.
Like raindrops in a storm
Metaphorically describing the emotional turbulence caused by tears.
I wish you didn't set the rules
Repeating the regret over established challenging rules in the relationship.
Cause you've made this game so hard
Reiterating the complexity or difficulty introduced into the relationship.
You put a price on every memory
Repeating the acknowledgment of the cost attached to memories.
And I pay it every time
Reiterating a willingness to bear the emotional cost for memories.
But you should set the standards
Encouraging the establishment of fair and reasonable standards in the relationship.
Because you set yours so high
Reiterating the challenge of meeting high expectations set by someone else.
I can't fight these feelings anymore
Reiterating the inability to suppress certain emotions any longer.
I can't wait for your tears to dry
Reiterating impatience for a resolution or emotional healing.
