So what's this big secret you can't tell me
I don't wanna piece of this
Haven't we all had enough
Enough for one day
I don't wanna argue with you
You've got me shiverin' in my spine
[Chorus]
If everything turned out as we had said
We wouldn't have to sit through any of this
Maybe I would be a better fit in my own skin
I'm not gonna try to divide or ignore you
And the pieces of the puzzle that never seem to fit
I'm not playin' hangman with you
I've run out of letters, let alone words
You've got me shiverin' in my spine
If everything turned out as we had said
We wouldn't have to sit here talkin' like this
Maybe I would be a better fit in my own skin
Maybe
If everything turned out as we had planned
We wouldn't have to go through any of this
Maybe it'll be more simple than you could ever think
So stay right where you are
We're snoozin' through an alarm
Make no sudden movements
Just tell me where we are
‘Cause here I am
There you are
Snoozin' through an alarm
Snoozin' through an alarm
If everything turned out as we had said
We wouldn't have to go through any of this
Maybe
Maybe… (oh…)
Maybe… (oh…)
Maybe… (oh…)
Oh…
Maybe… (oh…)
Maybe… (oh…)
Maybe… (oh…)
Oh…
Maybe… (oh…)
Maybe… (oh…)
Maybe… (oh…)
Oh…

i cant believe no one has commented on this song yet i love it so much
*agrees.. Indeed a most beautiful song.
Although, I'm of two minds as to what it's about.. One one hand it could be a couple in the midst of a breakup where one is fighting against it.
On the other it sounds like someone talking to the person they want to be with but can't for some reason. They're trying to convince them to 'get it sorted' so they can be together..
Thoughts?
I have to say the way I look at it it's kind of like a song about a couple that's at a point where they're fighting her insecurities. So lets say it's a guy singing to a girl.. she's at a point where he's getting in deeper to her but she doesn't want that. At this point they argue because she refuses to let him in.
With that said, he's saying that he'll never judge her, ignore her etc. So here he is, waiting patiently for her to figure out what he means to her and to tell him what he means to her. He's done everything he can, told her everything he could and now the decision of their relationship is up to her sort of thing.
Hi, English is not my first language, I can understand the words of the lyrics but I can't understand some expressions and set phrases. What means "Snoozing through an alarm"? And what that means in the context of the song?

When you get woken up by an alarm, you can choose to get up or hit the snooze button. Snooze button lets you lie and rest for a little while. So when the singer says "Snoozing through an alarm. Make no sudden movements, Just stay right where you are" He could be using the alarm as a metaphor. Saying that the alarm is the end of the relationship, but he's not ready to let go yet. So he doesn't want her to move anywhere. "Don't get up to it, please stay with me" or it could be literal "I'm enjoying...

Clear enough for you :)
