Lyrics
You only want me past 4am
You are desired only after 4 am.
You only want me then
Your presence is sought exclusively during that time.
I wait 10 minutes in between each text
There is a deliberate 10-minute gap between each text message to avoid appearing overly obsessed.
Don’t wanna seem too obsessed
Avoiding the appearance of excessive interest is a concern.
You say you’re busy with law school
The person claims to be occupied with law school.
You can’t find the time for girls
Expressing difficulty finding time for relationships due to academic commitments.
Promise me, I won’t see her until you’re in graduation clothes
A request to delay involvement with another person until the speaker graduates from law school.
You say your family’s a headache and you can’t get away from them
Family issues are presented as a reason for not being able to spend time away.
So you sleep all day
Sleeping excessively during the day is mentioned as a coping mechanism.
You only want me past 4am
Reiteration of the desire to be wanted only past 4 am.
You only want me then
Reiteration that the speaker is desired specifically during that time.
You say you want me for my brain
Claim that the attraction is intellectual rather than physical.
And not my chest
Emphasizing the desire to be valued for intelligence rather than physical attributes.
It’s weird how those things are the same
Commenting on the irony that intelligence and physicality are sometimes treated as equivalent.
You say you’re busy with law school
Reiteration of being busy with law school and having limited time for relationships.
You can’t find the time for girls
Continuation of the theme of struggling to find time for romantic involvement due to academic commitments.
Promise me, I won’t see her until you’re in graduation clothes
Repetition of the request to delay involvement until graduation.
You say your family’s a headache and you can’t get away from them
Family issues persist as a reason for limited availability.
So you sleep all day
Sleeping excessively is emphasized as a way to cope with family-related stress.
Say you don’t want me and go
An instruction or suggestion to declare disinterest and leave.
I hate your excuses, they hurt so much more
Expressing displeasure with the given excuses, implying emotional pain.
Say you don’t want me and go
Reiteration of the instruction to express disinterest and depart.
I hate your excuses, they hurt so much more
Reiteration of dissatisfaction with the excuses, highlighting emotional hurt.
You only want me past 4am
Emphasizing the desire to be wanted only past 4 am.
You only want me then
Reiteration that the speaker is desired specifically during that time.
I wait 10 minutes in between each text
Repeating the practice of waiting 10 minutes between texts to avoid appearing too obsessed.
Don’t wanna seem too obsessed
Reiteration of the concern about avoiding the perception of excessive interest.
