Poolside
Reflections by the Pool: Love, Regret, and Late Night Thoughts
Lyrics
Said we was rolling rolling like a stone
Expressing a carefree and spontaneous lifestyle, akin to rolling like a stone.
Cause them wheels keep on spinning and they just don't stop
Highlighting the continuous and unstoppable nature of life, symbolized by spinning wheels.
And sometimes it could be so lone
Acknowledging that life can sometimes be isolating or lonely.
Santo, just remind me
Seeking a reminder from Santo, possibly a spiritual figure, in a moment of confusion or distress.
There was no one on the phone
Emphasizing solitude with no one reaching out, particularly on the phone.
I was so messed up it was late last night
Reflecting on a night of being emotionally and mentally disturbed.
When I sparked it up she was on my mind
Recalling thoughts about someone special while under the influence.
We chilling by the pool side just thinking about the love of my life
Contemplating love while relaxing by the pool side.
We had broken up it's been 2 damn nights
Indicating a recent breakup and the passage of two nights since any communication.
Since she's called me up so these drinks on ice
Preparing drinks as a response to the emotional turmoil.
We chilling by the pool side just thinking about the love of my life
Revisiting thoughts about the lost love while being by the pool side.
When I woke up the next day you know I was super hung over
Describing the aftermath of heavy drinking with a hangover.
Chilling with a headache thinking about you about to fall over
Struggling with a headache, contemplating the absent person.
And I know that I really messed it up this time
Admitting to a significant mistake and the realization of its impact.
I was feeling so self righteous and she was so pissed off
Feeling self-righteous and acknowledging the partner's anger.
And there just wasn't enough water to cool this girl off
Highlighting the intensity of the partner's emotions, beyond the ability to cool down.
And I knew without her love that the nights were getting long
Recognizing the long nights without the love of the partner.
So I started getting drunk and I started writing songs
Turning to alcohol and songwriting as coping mechanisms.
I was so messed up it was late last night
Repeating the theme of being emotionally disturbed during the late night.
When I sparked it up she was on my mind
Revisiting thoughts about the absent person while under the influence.
We chilling by the pool side just thinking about the love of my life
Contemplating love once again by the pool side.
We had broken up it's been 2 damn nights
Reiterating the recent breakup and lack of communication.
Since she's called me up so these drinks on ice
Preparing drinks as a way to cope with the emotions.
We chilling by the pool side just thinking about the love of my life
Reflecting on the lost love while being by the pool side.
So baby baby baby don't you treat me so rude
Pleading for understanding and a kinder treatment in the relationship.
You know that I've been trying and that's all I can do
Expressing effort and the limitations of trying in the face of challenges.
I'm smoking in Wisconsin with the boys by the pool
Describing a scene of smoking in Wisconsin with friends by the pool.
And you wonder why I'm out here always acting a fool
Addressing the partner's questioning of the singer's seemingly irresponsible behavior.
Every time we do this you know it ain't right
Pointing out the cyclical nature of their relationship with frequent shifts between love and conflict.
One day you say you love me then the next day we gonna fight
Expressing frustration about the unpredictable nature of the partner's feelings and actions.
I told you I was sorry for every single thing
Apologizing for past mistakes and acknowledging remorse.
Now we chilling by the pool side getting drunk again
Returning to a familiar setting, the pool side, and resorting to alcohol again.
I was so messed up it was late last night
Repeating the theme of being emotionally disturbed during the late night.
When I sparked it up she was on my mind
Revisiting thoughts about the absent person while under the influence.
We chilling by the pool side just thinking about the love of my life
Contemplating love once again by the pool side.
We had broken up it's been 2 damn nights
Reiterating the recent breakup and lack of communication.
Since she's called me up so these drinks on ice
Preparing drinks as a way to cope with the emotions.
We chilling by the pool side just thinking about the love of my life
Reflecting on the lost love while being by the pool side.
