Lyrics
What was I thinking when I held you back
Reflecting on my decision to hold you back from a path of loneliness and despair.
From the loneliness and the despair that you were heading to?

Comparing your suffering to an enchanted anchorman, highlighting its captivating nature.
You broke the silence and I broke rules,
You broke the silence, and I broke rules, possibly referring to a breach in communication or understanding.
You were weak enough, despised me just for doing what I do.
Your weakness led you to despise me for my actions.
Discovered violence, but still it's you

I know my good by intuition.

I lay there drinking and watched you breathe

In your bubble running out of oxygen and thought
Noting your confinement in a bubble, running out of oxygen, and pondering the situation.
I saw you thinking but it's just your teeth
Recognizing your thoughts, though they might be superficial, as indicated by mentioning teeth and chewing gum.
Chewing gum and bared for some more suffering and moaning,
Describing a state of suffering and moaning, possibly caused by your actions.
And you say
