Lyrics
I miss the way it felt
I long for the sensation I experienced before
To love someone as much I loved myself
Reflecting on a time when I loved another person as much as I valued myself
I miss the pouring rain
Nostalgia for the feeling of rain falling
It'd wash me clean of sins from yesterday
Desire for a cleansing effect, ridding oneself of past mistakes
I miss the way things were
Nostalgia for a previous state of things
When I felt that I finally had the cure
Recalling a time when the speaker believed they had found a solution or remedy
Now I just hate snow
Current dislike for snow, possibly symbolic of problems or obstacles
It gives me reason to have nowhere to go
Snow becoming a reason to avoid facing issues or responsibilities
I wish I found a better place that I could be alone
Desire to discover a preferable, more isolated place
But I know I never could live in a place that's all my own
Acknowledgment of the impossibility of living entirely in one's own ideal place
I wish I could no longer be like this
Expressing a wish to escape from the current emotional state
I wish I could no longer feel like this
Yearning to be free from current emotional pain
I miss the old warm spot
Nostalgia for a comfortable and familiar place
Where we'd go to hang and smoke some pot
Recollection of a location associated with recreational activities
I miss the family pup
Nostalgia for the companionship of a family pet
She'd show me love when I felt like giving up
The family pet providing love and support during difficult times
I wish I found a better place that I could be alone
Reiteration of the desire to find a better, more solitary place
But I know I never could live in a place that's all my own
Acknowledgment of the impossibility of living entirely in one's own ideal place (repeated)
I wish I could no longer be like this
Expression of a wish to escape from the current emotional state (repeated)
I wish I could no longer feel like this
Yearning to be free from current emotional pain (repeated)
I miss the way I used to be
Nostalgia for a past version of oneself
I miss the way I used to be
Repetition of the longing for the way the speaker used to be
I miss the way I used to be
Continued repetition of missing a past self
I'm looking for something to set me free
The speaker actively seeking something to bring them liberation
