Bye Bye Bye Lyrics
After the great flood, all washed away, I still stayed
And through the crashing waves you'd promised me that you would wait cause,
I was the white light in your sad, desperate loneliness yet,
You left me swimming in circles as you rescued yourself.
Waking up so paralyzed
Sunlight poured through the blinds
Wishing I could shut my eyes
Wishing I could just shut my eyes
When you look back you'll turn into- this I promise you-
A pillar of salt that I'll walk through and I'll scatter you
Into the wind back to the day we met where you'll settle into
A standing pile of stones I'll skip across that ocean we knew
One by one till there's nothing left of you
One by one by one by one
Bye Bye Bye
And through the crashing waves you'd promised me that you would wait cause,
I was the white light in your sad, desperate loneliness yet,
You left me swimming in circles as you rescued yourself.
Sunlight poured through the blinds
Wishing I could shut my eyes
Wishing I could just shut my eyes
A pillar of salt that I'll walk through and I'll scatter you
Into the wind back to the day we met where you'll settle into
A standing pile of stones I'll skip across that ocean we knew
One by one by one by one
Bye Bye Bye

this song is so beautiful.
it's obvious, but seems to be about a relationship that hits a rough patch, and decide to take a break with the intention of returning to one another, but the other person never comes around. the rest of the song is learning how to cope, and eventually, getting past it and being strong enough to let it go and let the other person come to terms with how they handled everything.
