The End Lyrics
We've only ever kissed lying down
We've only ever touched
When there's no one else around
I can be elusive
If you want me to
I'm not being intrusive
I just wish I knew the truth
As to why
I wait for you
Longer than the average person would
And why
I think about you
More than I think one should
Our bodies fit together
Like a make-shift puzzle
And it's clear to see why you puzzle me
And you turn your frame
And you whisper my name
As though I am a burden
Cause I'm making up for lost time
And I'm making up for you
And I'm waking up from last night
And I'm waking up with you
So what's new?
So what's new?
I am at your house
So I belong to you for now
Trying to impress you
But lord I don't know how
I can be a statue
If you want me to
I'm not being difficult
I just need to know the truth
As to why
I'm wanting you
And I would take you if I could
And why I'm still (lay?) here
It's something I still haven't understood
Our hands rest together
Like pieces of paper
But they're always blank
When I hold your hand
And it gave you a fright
When I stayed the night
And you gave yourself to me
Cause I'm making up for lost time
And I'm making up for you
And I'm waking up from last night
And I'm waking up with you
So what's new?
So what's new?
It's not the end
It's not the end
So don't lets pretend
Cause I'm making up for lost time
And I'm making up for you
And I'm waking up from last night
And I'm making up for you
So what's new?
So what's new?
So what's new?
We've only ever touched
When there's no one else around
I can be elusive
If you want me to
I'm not being intrusive
I just wish I knew the truth
I wait for you
Longer than the average person would
And why
I think about you
More than I think one should
Like a make-shift puzzle
And it's clear to see why you puzzle me
And you turn your frame
And you whisper my name
As though I am a burden
And I'm making up for you
And I'm waking up from last night
And I'm waking up with you
So what's new?
So what's new?
So I belong to you for now
Trying to impress you
But lord I don't know how
I can be a statue
If you want me to
I'm not being difficult
I just need to know the truth
I'm wanting you
And I would take you if I could
And why I'm still (lay?) here
It's something I still haven't understood
Like pieces of paper
But they're always blank
When I hold your hand
And it gave you a fright
When I stayed the night
And you gave yourself to me
And I'm making up for you
And I'm waking up from last night
And I'm waking up with you
So what's new?
So what's new?
It's not the end
So don't lets pretend
And I'm making up for you
And I'm waking up from last night
And I'm making up for you
So what's new?
So what's new?
So what's new?

It's about waiting for someone...it seems like he's only willing to be with her only behind closed doors. She knows she should stop waiting for him and get with someone that will proud to be with her in public, but she can't stop wanting him and kidding herself someday he'll turn around and suddenly want to make it official.
Beautiful song...can't wait for the album!
to me, its about someone who feels their relationship is 'on the rocks' and really wants to make it better again. they'd do anything to try and make things the way they were (i'd be a statue, if you wanted me to...). Basically, i think its a song about being in love with someone who isnt quite as in love with you, and not knowing what you can do about it. Maybe i'm talking crap, and its just cause im going through that at the minute. but that's what it means to me :)
clearly this song is about someone who has like someone for a very long time, and they almost got toegther admitted they liked each other after alot of awkwardmess and on off pulls etc then when there alone all is good until then one calls it off but they both know the feelings are there,
okay, to me, i think that this song is about someone (the girl) who is with/was in a relationship with this guy who doesn't treat her right and doesn't deserve her and is pretty much a douchebag and she totally knows it but despite everything, she really loves him and wants to do whatever she can to keep him around because she's not ready for the relationship to end and she's not ready to move on. and she knows that normally, someone would just dump the person and not put up with their shit but all she wants is to be with this guy and she doesn't completely understand why she so badly wants to be with him and waits for him and wants to do whatever possible to make him be with her even though he's not worth it and she knows she could find better.
i think it is about a girl who doesnt know how to tell a guy she loves him and is confused about how he feels about her. She ends up feeling awkward and feels like its the end of it.
I love this song. I think missme got it right. Thats what would have put and exactly what I feel when I listen to the song.
at her concert, she said she wrote this song about a boy that she didn't really like! which makes sense after knowing the lyrics!
Ellie completely explains a relationship I had last summer. I fell for this girl; and she felt the same. But she felt like a "head fuck" and didn't want the relationship that I did. We never used to go on dates or hang out. It was a situation where we would all go clubbing together and me and her would always hook up.
There was so much frustration that we had feelings for each other; but the relationship kept falling through and we eventually called it off despite both still wanting each other.
I Agree with Notgoodatusernames ...... That is exactly how I feel right now and when I heard this song i could help but break down....i just don't know why...I wasn't like this...love really does change even the strongest person...So many thing yet I can't stop loving him....I've never had like a cheating problem or anything...its just he's sometimes too controlling and people could only take so much yet idk with hom its different...
To me the song seems to be about a relationship with a introverted/closed person that has difficulty of expressing their love.
