Lyrics

it starts in the afternoon after we've downed a few

After consuming some drinks in the afternoon, the situation unfolds.

we argue for an hour then soak for two

A prolonged argument takes place, followed by a two-hour period of soaking, perhaps reflecting on the disagreement.

you ask me about the future and what I think it'll bring

Discussion about the future arises, prompting reflection on what lies ahead.

oh I freeze up and can't think of a single thing

The speaker experiences a mental block when questioned about the future, struggling to articulate thoughts.


is this the life you wanna live

Pondering if the current life situation is the desired one.

oh I've given you all that I possibly can give

The speaker expresses having given their utmost effort in the relationship.

I wonder why the hell you're still here with me

Curiosity about why the partner is still present despite apparent difficulties.

oh this isn't how I wanted things to be

Expressing dissatisfaction with the current state of affairs, contrary to the speaker's desires.

oh to be

An expression of longing or yearning for something different.


you ramble on 'bout the way that I make you feel

The partner discusses how the speaker's actions affect their emotions.

nothing I say, nothing I do is real

The speaker feels a disconnect, as their words and actions are perceived as insincere or unreal.

let's hope by tomorrow all memories of this are gone

Hoping that the negative emotions will fade away by the next day.

oh I guess all you needed was someone you could lean on

Recognizing that the partner just needed someone for support, irrespective of the current tension.


oh is this the life you wanna live

Reiterating the question of whether the current life is the desired one.

I've given you all that I possibly can give

Reaffirming the effort invested in the relationship.

I wonder why the hell you're still here with me

Puzzlement persists regarding why the partner remains in the relationship despite challenges.

oh this isn't how I wanted things to be

Expressing discontent with the current situation, deviating from the speaker's preferred scenario.

oh to be

Reflecting on a desire for a different, perhaps better, existence.
