I'm pretty sure I figured it out. "It didn't matter what they wanted to see. He thought he saw someone that looked just like me. That summer memory that just never dies. We worked too long and hard to give it no time." "It didnt matter what they wanted to see [I will love her regardless.]" "He thought he saw someone that lookED just like me" means his friend thought that he was still innocent, like when he was a kid. The "summer memory that just never dies" is when he was innocent. "We worked too long and hard to [let this friendship die]" "He sees right through me it's so easy with lies. Cracks in the road that I would try and disguise. He runs his scissors at the seem in the wall. He cannot break it down or else he would fall. One thousand lonely stars hiding in the cold. Take it, I don't wanna sing anymore." "He sees [that narrator loves his gf/wife.]" "He runs his scissors at the seem in the wall" means he's being risky in his approach, he might lose their friendship. "He cannot break it down or else he would fall" means he can't end things. He can't call him out because their friendship would end/he needs this friend. "One thousand lonely stars hiding in the cold" means everyone is aware of the situation but nobody is making any moves. Everyone has lost attraction and they're all lonely in the cold. "Take it, I don't wanna sing anymore" means that he wants his friend to have the girl. He's done with this mess, he gives up, he can have her. The last unique lyrics: "I don't understand, don't get upset. I'm not with you. We're swimming around. It's all I do when I'm with you." She's upset with his decision. He says, I'm not your man. We're treading water, but going nowhere. I think this is the end because of the story because of the music break. The music grows, it peaks, it reaches a plateau, then spikes again at the end. I think that's indicative of the story. It reaches this peak, he resolves it, but it's not a perfect resolution because she's hurt with the result. "Can I give it up or give it away?" in the end he does give it up. He gives it away to his friend. |
