This is my favorite song on the new album. I think it's a description of a night life scene, like at a night club. (This is going to be really long btw, lol.)
"Nonstop talk
It’s eleven o’clock
There’s a line coming out the door
I’m not feeling it
But I swore I’d go"
This reminds me of a long line of people waiting to get into a club, and how this normally isn't her type of scene, but she promised she would go.
"Thrift shop
Rock a little light on a cock
All the kids screaming out for more
I’m not getting it
I’d swear I’ve been here before"
These are the most confusing lines to me. I debate about whether she means these things in a literal way, and is referring to sexual behavior, or if it's some kind of metaphor. I don't understand the first two lines, but the ones to follow sound like the way younger adults act, how they typically go to clubs to pick up people and have sex with them. The line "I'm not getting it" could either refer to her lack of understanding of the situation, or a literal way of saying she isn't getting laid, lol. I don't think that's the case though, it's just a possibility. shrugs
"How can you rap
For all that sunset?
The sequence still isn’t done
And I’d like to know
You get me"
The lines that have to do with rap I see as a commentary on the genre of music. The line "how can you rap for all that sunset?" seems like a way of saying "how can you rap for all that hardship?" which can refer to the way rappers take a life of crime and little opportunity and glamorize it with their music. I don’t understand the lines that follow.
“Third full sip (?)
Off the straight line tip
Just one now, but I want more
Another, promise me
Thrown out the door”
These lines describe her desire for alcohol, and how she keeps drinking, and eventually she is thrown out of the club.
“Through a bloodshot haze
Watch the day get paid
Find a friend, ask him take me home
And could you stay awhile?
Now I can’t be alone”
She is having trouble seeing; a side effect of being drunk. She finds a friend to drive her home, and she doesn’t want to be by herself, so she asks him/her for some company.

And that's all I've got so far.
