Yeaaahhhh... so I guess there's not much interpretation to be done trying to figure out the meaning of this song.

All's I know is it destroys me when I listen to it because it reminds me of that girl who I let get away,,, and still talking to her after all this time confirms what I thought... she wasn't ready, then when she was, thought I wasn't ready... then when I was ready... etc., etc.

Ugh. I'm sure one day I'll be able to listen to this song and not be reduced to a puddle... well, pretty sure... LOL

@chicagoan Just broke up with my SO because I don't think I'm ready. Thinking pretty hard about this rn
