The Time It Takes To Grow

it's about someone who did something wrong to his lover and decided to 'fade away' and let the memories die and basically, give up, even though if he just fight a little bit, they would be perfect for each other. she wouldn't believe him anyways because i think she had enough of him, because she gave him thousands of 'second chance' and she wants him to fully change. even if he changed, part of her will always never believe him. 'And you still won't believe me, but they're the days I felt alive' so they had love-hate relationship, and they burn each other because they were so much in love. 'Two more years left of waiting before I let this one go' this might mean that the girl waited until he change, but he never did and she just give up. or. they might not live in the same town/country and they try to move on. this song is kinda like me and my boyfriend. we had on & off relationship and also love-hate.

I really like this and all of "The Way I Fell In" And the second verse is: I made my way down the coast I made it home for autumn But as the seasons change I can pry my eyes From the two black hands staring back at me Stay right here

"I can't pry my eyes from the two black hands staring back at me" What they meant is they can't stop looking at the clock. 'Two black hands' refers to the clock's arrow, one for minutes indicator and one for hours indicator.
