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”
I once knew a guy, and his name was Jim
He used to like me, but I didn't like him
He told me he'd really like to go in bed
He told me he'd like to give me viscious head
He's a gay boy, boy toy, jerk off, a **** up
His boyfriend says, "Come live with me."
His boyfriend says, "Come and amke the scene."
His mom and dad are awful proud
It's perfectly acceptable to be a gay boy,
boy toy, jerk off, **** up
(Chorus)
He used to like me, but I didn't like him
He told me he'd really like to go in bed
He told me he'd like to give me viscious head
He's a gay boy, boy toy, jerk off, a **** up
His boyfriend says, "Come live with me."
His boyfriend says, "Come and amke the scene."
His mom and dad are awful proud
It's perfectly acceptable to be a gay boy,
boy toy, jerk off, **** up
(Chorus)
