Lyrics

Get it out your head you idiot kid

Encouragement to stop overthinking, addressed to someone referred to as an "idiot kid."

There's things you never said

Highlighting the existence of unspoken thoughts or feelings.

And things you never did

Acknowledging actions that were never taken.


But that's all cool with me

Expressing acceptance despite unspoken issues.

As long as you get by

Emphasizing the importance of coping and moving forward.

But if you've got regrets

Addressing the possibility of having regrets.

Don't ask me why

Discouraging the act of questioning the speaker about regrets.


And then you saw your friends

Narrating an encounter with friends that led to a realization.

You said it brought you back to reality

Describing a moment where reality is brought to the forefront.

Does that mean with me it feels unreal

Pondering whether the speaker's presence makes reality feel unreal.


I'm real ill

Expressing a sense of being unwell or troubled.

And every night Ill sit and sigh

Indicating a contemplative period each night.

And realize that I don't deserve you my love

Realization of perceived undeservingness of the speaker's love.

Well it ain't right

Stating that the situation is not right or fair.

And soon in time

Anticipating a future realization of the speaker's worth.

You'll see that what you do for me

Predicting that the recipient will understand the value of the speaker's actions.

Is null and void

Declaring that the recipient's actions will be deemed insignificant.
