This song seemingly tackles the methods of deception those who manipulate others use to get victims to follow their demands, as well as diverting attention away from important issues. They'll also use it as a means to convince people to hate or kill others by pretending acts of terrorism were committed by the enemy when the acts themselves were done by the masters of control to promote discrimination and hate. It also reinforces the idea that these manipulative forces operate in various locations, infiltrating everyday life without detection, and propagate any and everywhere.
In general, it highlights the danger of hidden agendas, manipulation, and distraction, serving as a critique of those who exploit chaos and confusion to control and gain power, depicting a cautionary tale against falling into their traps. It encourages us to question the narratives presented to us and remain vigilant against manipulation in various parts of society.
When they say promises
They mean promises
They'd say, that's okay
Long as we can celebrate
Ooh, you see, my uncle would say
Things would change when he's dead
Meet me in the bathroom
That's what she said
I don't mind
It's true
Hey
Never was on time
Yes, I once was mine
Well, that was long ago
And darling, I don't mind
Yeah, we were just two friends in lust
And baby, that just don't mean much
Oh yeah, you trained me not to love
After you showed me what it was
Now she's staring wide-eyed
Can't close her eyes
Say what?
Anywhere is fine
Just don't waste my time
Ah, you see, my uncle would say
Things would change once he's dead
Meet me in the bathroom
That's what she said
I don't mind
It's true
Never was on time
Yes, I once was mine
Well, that was long ago
And darling, I don't mind
Yeah, they were just two fucks in lust
Oh baby, that just don't mean much
Oh yeah, you trained me not to love
After you taught me what it was
They mean promises
They'd say, that's okay
Long as we can celebrate
Ooh, you see, my uncle would say
Things would change when he's dead
Meet me in the bathroom
That's what she said
I don't mind
It's true
Hey
Never was on time
Yes, I once was mine
Well, that was long ago
And darling, I don't mind
Yeah, we were just two friends in lust
And baby, that just don't mean much
Oh yeah, you trained me not to love
After you showed me what it was
Now she's staring wide-eyed
Can't close her eyes
Say what?
Anywhere is fine
Just don't waste my time
Ah, you see, my uncle would say
Things would change once he's dead
Meet me in the bathroom
That's what she said
I don't mind
It's true
Never was on time
Yes, I once was mine
Well, that was long ago
And darling, I don't mind
Yeah, they were just two fucks in lust
Oh baby, that just don't mean much
Oh yeah, you trained me not to love
After you taught me what it was

Overall about difficult moments of disappointment and vulnerability. Having hope and longing, while remaining optimistic for the future. Encourages the belief that with each new morning there is a chance for things to improve.
The chorus offers a glimmer of optimism and a chance at a resolution and redemption in the future.
Captures the rollercoaster of emotions of feeling lost while loving someone who is not there for you, feeling let down and abandoned while waiting for a lover. Lost with no direction, "Now I'm up in the air with the rain in my hair, Nowhere to go, I can go anywhere"
The bridge shows signs of longing and a plea for companionship. The Lyrics express a desire for authentic connection and the importance of Loving someone just as they are. "Just in passing, I'm not asking. That you be anyone but you”

this is a great song, and it's pretty much about some girl asking you to meet her in the bathroom and you're saying ok as long as she doesn't waste my time, i guess it may sound stupid but i can relate to this because it already happenned
