Lyrics
I don't wanna lose you
Expressing a fear of losing someone important.
I don't wanna lose you
Repetition emphasizes the fear and urgency.
I don't wanna lose you
Continuing the plea to avoid separation.
I don't wanna lose you
Reiterating the strong desire not to lose the person.
Just woke up from a bad dream
Describing the aftermath of a troubling dream.
Nothing was as it seems
Highlighting the discrepancy between appearance and reality in the dream.
Felt so real cuz I felt everything
Emphasizing the vividness of emotions experienced in the dream.
You said you were deciding to leave me
Recalling a statement about leaving, causing distress.
You say you're not going to, that I got to believe you
Expressing a struggle to believe assurances not to leave.
But you know my self-esteem doesn't let me breathe
Connecting self-esteem issues to difficulty in trusting.
I think that that's the real issue here
Identifying a deeper problem related to self-perception.
That I can't see clear
Expressing a lack of clarity and understanding.
I scare myself, the most
Admitting to being the source of fear and anxiety.
I push away what's close to me
Acknowledging a pattern of pushing away those close.
Fuck my own insecurities
Rejecting one's own insecurities with a strong expression.
Break my own heart, I'm my own heartbreak
Taking responsibility for causing one's own emotional pain.
I'm the reason for my own heart-race
Admitting to being the cause of heartache and stress.
I'm the reason that I've been replaced so many times
Recognizing a history of being replaced in relationships.
Given so many lines about why I'm so hard to handle
Receiving feedback on being challenging to deal with.
Like a baton that gets passed over, hand over too many times
Metaphorically describing oneself as a burdensome object.
Eventually everyone gets to the red light, the stop sign
Anticipating inevitable rejection and abandonment.
Consider me a waste of time, a waste of breath
Accepting a negative perception of oneself.
Anyone would've been better instead
Feeling unworthy compared to others.
Look how far I drag this out
Reflecting on the prolongation of personal struggles.
I'm a mess
Acknowledging personal chaos and internal disarray.
Break my own heart, I'm my own heartbreak
Repeating the acknowledgment of self-inflicted heartbreak.
I'm the reason for my own heart-race
Acknowledging self as the cause of heightened heart rate.
I'm the reason that I've been replaced so many times
Recognizing a pattern of being replaced in relationships.
Given so many lines about why I'm so hard to handle
Receiving repeated comments on being challenging to handle.
Just woke up from a bad dream
Repeating the description of a distressing dream.
Nothing was as it seems
Emphasizing the disorienting nature of the dream.
Felt so real cuz I felt everything
Reiterating the intensity of emotions felt in the dream.
You said you were deciding to leave me
Recalling the distressing decision to leave mentioned in the dream.
You say you're not going to, that I got to believe you
Repeating the struggle to believe assurances against leaving.
But you know my self-esteem doesn't let me breathe
Linking self-esteem issues to difficulty in trusting.
I think that that's the real issue here
Revisiting the core issue of unclear self-perception.
That I can't see clear
Admitting a lack of clarity and self-awareness.
I scare myself, the most
Recognizing fear as a predominant emotion within oneself.
I push away what's close to me
Admitting to a pattern of pushing away those emotionally close.
Fuck my own insecurities
Expressing frustration with personal insecurities.
I don't wanna lose you
Reiterating the fear of losing someone significant.
I don't wanna lose you
Repeating the urgency and intensity of not wanting to lose.
I don't wanna lose you
Continuing the plea to avoid separation.
I don't wanna lose you
Reiterating the strong desire not
