Lyrics
I'm Googling all of the pills in your bathroom
Expressing curiosity by searching for information on medications in someone else's bathroom.
I'm going to invent some extravagant lies
Planning to fabricate elaborate falsehoods.
And after she left I was desperate to tell you
Desiring to share something important after a person (she) departed, but facing communication barriers.
But I couldn't break through to the other side
Unable to overcome obstacles and communicate the desired message.
You had that glassy look back in your eyes
Observing a distant, detached expression returning to the person's eyes.
I'm looking up your old house on Zillow
Investigating the past residence of the person using an online platform (Zillow).
I've costumed myself in elaborate disguise
Disguising oneself in an intricate costume.
And I fall asleep when my head hits your pillow
Falling asleep using the person's pillow, yet still unable to reach a connection.
But I still can't break through to the other side
Continuing to struggle to break through to the other side, suggesting emotional barriers.
I had my little scene to monarchize
Having a personal moment or experience related to being a monarch or king.
I'm looking up lines from a play that I saw once
Researching lines from a play, possibly to find parallels with personal experiences.
About a young king who was going to die
Reflecting on a play featuring a young king facing impending death.
And I'm freaking out about graveyards and coffins
Experiencing anxiety about death-related themes such as graveyards and coffins.
And all your thoughts are comfortable and high
Noticing the contrast between one's own anxious thoughts and the other person's calm and elevated mindset.
You have that glassy look back in your eye
Seeing the return of a detached, glassy look in the person's eye.
I flew out last week for that great coronation
Traveling recently for a notable event, possibly a coronation, with the other person showing a lack of emotional farewells.
You never were one for effusive goodbyes
Recalling the person's tendency to avoid expressive goodbyes.
And I can't remember our last conversation
Struggling to remember the last meaningful conversation with the person.
And I won't forget my horrified surprise
Expressing the lasting impact of a shocking and unpleasant revelation or experience.
