I think he’s saying “do re me” pointing to the fact that everything he’s done in his life with his music has been self centered in one way or another partially because he’s been forced to play into the mythology to sell records and partially because that’s true for anyone making art. It’s kind of unabashed. Like hey I feel like shit about myself and my life and I’m not sure if I’m gonna make it. What about me? Like self soothing. Probably feeling guilty for what his addiction has done to those around him so it’s kind of sardonic...

Probably feeling guilty for what his addiction has done to those around him so it’s kind of sardonic as well but also genuine. This is obviously a biased take but I just think this song is very contextual and personal

This song tells the story of Ahkell & Sincere, who find themselves caught in the glamorous yet challenging world of Hollywood. Many believe they can save a struggling Hollywood actress from the allure and illusions of fame, but as the song reveals, they come to realize that they can’t save her—her path is her own. Through heartfelt lyrics, the artists express their disappointment and the bittersweet truth that sometimes, despite good intentions, you can’t change someone who is deeply immersed in the Hollywood lifestyle. The emotional tone underscores the reality of unfulfilled hopes and the harsh truths about love and...

This song absolutely kills me- every line is laced with such pure desire and longing. He is infatuated, almost in a lust-filled fever: 'I dreamt about you nearly every night this week' or 'there's this tune I found that makes me think of you somehow and I play it on repeat until I fall asleep'. He just can't get her out of his head.

I don't think they were ever together exclusively. Maybe they were on the verge of something more, and they'd say stuff to each other ('baby we both know that the nights were mainly made for things...

I don't think they were ever together exclusively. Maybe they were on the verge of something more, and they'd say stuff to each other ('baby we both know that the nights were mainly made for things you can't say tomorrow day…') At one point he knew she liked him back ('been wondering if your heart's STILL open..')

Something happened though, but he's still stuck on her. She is all he can think of, sober or drunk, and he just wants to know if she feels the same way.

Often with this type of obsession you turn the other person into something they are not or something they can never live up to. That's why he asks 'do I wanna know if this feeling goes both ways?' Does he face getting his feelings turned down? Or even worse, might he realise that she is not the person he has made her to be in his head?

There is a sick, exquisite kind of pain that comes with loving or lusting after someone you can't have. this song perfectly encapsulates that.
