This track deals with the thoughts one has after the breakdown of a relationship; romantic or platonic. We can feel all these strong emotions yet still convince ourselves that things are okay, that we are fine, and ignore what we truly want and need. And does time really heal all wounds?
lyrics
You say I'm dead to you,
I can be anything you want me to.
'Cause it don't mean nothing,
We'll forget everything we used to do.
I sit alone and think about the times we had,
and was it really all that bad?
Or is all the shit getting sifted,
getting filtered in my head?
But I'll be fine,
All it takes is some time.
I'm sure my heart will mend,
Until I see you again.
But I'll be fine,
All it takes is some time.
I'm sure my pain will end,
Until I see you again.
I watch this parasite draw blood out like a knife,
But I don't do nothing.
I don't matter in this life.
I sit alone and think about the times we had,
and do I really want that back?
Or is all the shit getting better,
Is my head getting better?
But I'll be fine,
All it takes is some time.
I'm sure my heart will mend,
Until I see you again.
But I'll be fine,
All it takes is some time.
I'm sure my pain will end,
Until I see you again.
Again.
Is my head getting better?
Is my head getting better?
