Lyrics
Aye
A greeting or attention-grabbing sound
Seven years of pain can't explain why he needs another chance
Expressing that a period of seven years of suffering isn't sufficient to articulate why he desires another opportunity
Never knew how to love, he'll make promises to be a better man
Admits to lacking knowledge on how to express affection, but vows to make commitments to improve as a person
Give him all the pain, he can change, do his best to understand
Requesting to endure the pain to facilitate change and showing a willingness to comprehend
Woahh, I picked these roses myself, I got thorns in my hand
An analogy where the roses symbolize something beautiful yet accompanied by pain (thorns), likening personal experiences to this analogy
Rare like a black rose from the concrete
Comparing rarity and uniqueness to a black rose emerging from harsh conditions (concrete)
I shoulda known, but I treated her like a side piece
Regret over mistreating someone important by not giving them proper attention or regard
My greatest foe is the villain that lives inside me
Recognition of an inner struggle or negative aspect of oneself that poses as the greatest adversary
I'm not playing victim, I did this, don't need reminding
Refusing to play the victim role, taking responsibility for actions without needing reminders
Can't stop writing songs about you, I still think about you every day
Continued difficulty in moving on, reflected in constant songwriting about the individual
Most of my lyrics are feelings for you that I could never say
Expressing that the lyrics embody emotions and thoughts that couldn't be verbalized directly
Never should of gave up on us, I gotta live with my mistake
Regret over a decision to give up on a relationship and acknowledging the necessity to live with that choice
I'm not fighting demons, I'm dealing with the choices that I made
Denying a battle with external demons but rather confronting the consequences of personal choices made
We have an ugly past, I don't wanna talk about it now
Unwillingness to discuss a troubled history or past events with the person
Trynna think of something that'll make you wanna come around
Attempting to think of something that might persuade the person to return or reconcile
I just wanna hear you say you miss me cause I love the sound
Desire to hear the person admit missing the speaker, finding solace in that confession
You loved me like no other, can't believe how much I let you down
Recognizing and regretting how much the person was loved and yet disappointed
Seven years of pain can't explain why he needs another chance
Reiteration of the duration of pain without a clear understanding of the need for another chance
Never knew how to love, he'll make promises to be a better man
Reiterating a lack of prior knowledge about expressing love, promising change and understanding
Give him all the pain, he can change, do his best to understand
Asking to bear the pain to facilitate change, displaying a willingness to understand
Woahh, I picked these roses myself, I got thorns in my hand
Repeating the analogy of roses and thorns, emphasizing personal pain within beauty
I know that you feel used, uh
Acknowledgment that the person might feel used or taken advantage of
Grew tired, walk in your shoes, uh
Understanding that the person might have grown tired of the situation or relationship
Break down, break me in two, uh
Feeling emotionally broken by the situation, pleading to be understood
Love me, hate me, make me choose, uh
Expressing the complexity of emotions felt by the person, torn between love and hate, asking for a decision to be made
I can't even like nobody else, cause I don't wanna let you go
Inability to develop feelings for anyone else due to the unwillingness to let go of the person
Can't erase the pictures, you still have a folder in my phone
Unable to remove memories or traces of the person from the speaker's life
I just wanna see you, you make it easy to tell me no
Desire to see the person even though they make it easy to refuse the speaker's requests
If this distance was a test, you've been testing me for too long
Feeling tested by the distance between them and expressing that it's been too prolonged
Can't stress enough, I miss your love, I miss your touch
Stressing the depth of missing the person's love and physical presence
Tried to forget you, had no luck, I need more of you, you're my drug
Efforts to forget the person have failed, admitting a need for more of their presence as if they are a drug
I'm addicted, I need your love, lemme fix it, I'll grease it up
Admission of addiction to the person's love and a desire to mend or make amends
This was never meant to be easy baby I'm difficult
Acknowledgment that relationships are not easy and recognition of personal difficulty in this context
