I've known this song for at least 6 years and it took me until now to realize that it's about dating a woman with an avoidant attachment style. "Your face says a full house But I think you’re bluffing" She's leading him on to keep him in the relationship. "And you starve me" "…you’re just serving me spoonfuls" We've lost the poker metaphor. A bit more direct about how she's withholding her affection "Because when I start losing Is when I start cheating" I took this to be a reference to cheating in a relationship. "And when you finally show your cards You’ll be the only one who’s playing" This i believe refers to the pattern of withdrawal — He starts to give up on the relationship (folds) so she finally realizes what she's losing |
