Choke
Echoes of Heartbreak: Tomorrowish's 'Choke' Unveiled
Lyrics
Who cares what happened now that it's through
Reflecting on the past, unconcerned about the present situation
It's all good, I'm still good, it's all good, I'm good
Expressing a positive outlook despite the breakup
Why do I still feel like I could talk to you
A lingering desire for communication despite the breakup
It's all good, I'm still good, it's all good, I'm good
Reiterating emotional resilience and positivity
Still hate myself from being with you
Continued self-blame and regret from the past relationship
It's all good, I'm still good, it's all good, I'm good
Maintaining a positive self-image despite self-hatred
It's been a year why's it an issue
Questioning why the past relationship is still affecting after a year
It's all good, I'm still good, it's all good, I'm good
Emphasizing emotional well-being despite lingering issues
You always thought I was a joke and that's the reason I still choke on my words before they get out
Recalling being underestimated, leading to difficulty expressing oneself
Now that it's all over and done I realize you're not the one so why are you still around
Realizing the ex-partner wasn't the right match and questioning their presence
I was never enough
Feeling inadequate in the past relationship
But I still needed your touch
Acknowledging a need for affection despite the inadequacy
Honey was it a bluff
Questioning the sincerity of past expressions of love
Or was it really love
Contemplating whether the past relationship was genuine love
Was it ever love
Doubting if love was ever present
I know I should, but I can't hate you
Struggling to harbor hate despite the circumstances
It's all good, I'm still good, think we're good, it's good
Optimistically asserting personal well-being and the end of the relationship
I wanted love, but couldn't make you
Expressing a desire for love but acknowledging personal limitations
It's all good, I'm still good, think we're good, it's good
Remaining positive despite unfulfilled desires for love
It's not worth crying over
Minimizing the significance of the breakup
You're not worth crying over
Asserting that the ex-partner is not worth emotional distress
You're not worth dying over
Rejecting extreme reactions or sacrifices for an unworthy person
Didn't even like me sober
Indicating a negative perception of the ex-partner even when sober
Yeah I'll keep my composure
Committing to maintaining emotional control
Let's both keep our composure
Suggesting both parties should maintain composure in the aftermath
You loved to push me over the edge
Recalling past attempts to provoke or upset
You just got in my head
Implying emotional manipulation by the ex-partner
You always thought I was a joke and that's the reason I still choke on my words before they get out
Reiterating the impact of being underestimated on communication
I was never enough
Reiterating a sense of inadequacy in the past relationship
But I still needed your touch
Acknowledging a continued need for physical closeness
Honey was it a bluff
Questioning the sincerity of past expressions of love (repeated theme)
Or was it really love
Reflecting on whether the past relationship was genuine love (repeated theme)
Stay with me count the time
Counting the time since the relationship ended
Since I last called you mine
Expressing well wishes for the ex-partner
I still wish you the best
Expressing a personal struggle despite positive wishes
Just wish I wasn't a mess
Reiterating the impact of being underestimated on communication (repeated theme)
You always thought I was a joke and that's the reason I still choke on my words before they get out
Concluding with the ongoing struggle in expressing oneself
