Lyrics
Sorry for coming into your life I think I ruined it
Expressing regret for entering someone's life and feeling responsible for ruining it.
Wasn't tryna make you mine, it was the culprit
Clarifying that the intention was not to make the person theirs; attributing the situation to an external cause.
It was the culprit
Reiterating that there was a specific cause for the situation.
I was the culprit
Acknowledging personal responsibility for the situation or problem.
Hold me, whenever life gets tough I need you to hold me
Seeking comfort and support during difficult times, emphasizing the need for physical closeness.
Sometimes I just feel so goddamn lonely
Expressing intense feelings of loneliness.
So goddamn lonely
Reiterating the strong emotions of loneliness.
I don't wanna be lonely
Rejecting the desire for loneliness and expressing a need for connection.
She said I want you now but I want you dead
Quoting someone expressing a desire for the narrator's presence but with a sinister twist, suggesting harm.
All of this is gonna end

I know

Didn't think you'd be the one to let go

To let go

So I let go
Acting on the decision to let go.
Can't explain and I won't try
Declining to explain the emotions further and refusing to attempt to do so.
Roll the dice but keep me out
Metaphorically referencing taking risks but wanting to be excluded from the outcome.
I'm not going back to being who I was
Rejecting reverting to a previous self and asserting personal growth.
I'm not lost
Asserting that despite challenges, the narrator is not lost.
I'm not lost
Repeating the declaration of not being lost.
Want you now but I want you dead
Quoting a desire for the person's presence but with the same ominous undertone as in line 9.
All of this is gonna end
Reiterating the anticipation of an end to the current situation or relationship.
I know
Reaffirming the realization that the unexpected person is letting go.
Didn't think you'd be the one to let go
Repeating the act of letting go, emphasizing the unexpected nature of the decision.
To let go
Reiterating the difficulty of letting go.
So I let go
Finalizing the decision to let go.
