This song is about a friendship ending, even though they fought to keep it alive, and needing to move on.
"I see your face in my mind as I drive away,
'Cause none of us thought it was gonna end that way
People are people,
And sometimes we change our minds
But it's killing me to see you go after all this time"
It's tearing you apart to have to end things. You had never thought it would come to this, but 'people are people' and things happen.
"Music starts playin' like the end of a sad movie,
It's the kinda ending you don't really wanna see
'Cause it's tragedy and it'll only bring you down,
Now I don't know what to be without you around"
It's very painful and emotional- breaking off a friendship is the kind of situation you never want to happen in life as it seems to only bring hurt. Without this friend in your life you don't know what to do, you're feeling like you lost a piece of yourself
"And we know it's never simple,
Never easy
Never a clean break, no one here to save me
You're the only thing I know like the back of my hand"
You know life is never simple, friendships never easy. Things never end tidily.
The line 'no one here to save me' really hits home for me. When you're going through a breakdown of a friendship it can feel like there is no one there for you anymore, no one to get you out of this mess or to support you through it because no one cares or understands. "You're the only thing I know like the back of my hand" once again rings true to that feeling of being lost- you don't know what to do because you've depended on this person for so long and now you feel like you're being left to fend for yourself.
"And I can't,
Breathe,
Without you,
But I have to,
Breathe,
Without you,
But I have to"
Losing this person is so so so painful. But you know you need to move on from this, even though it's killing you.
"Never wanted this, never wanna see you hurt
Every little bump in the road I tried to swerve
People are people,
And sometimes it doesn't work out,
Nothing we say is gonna save us from the fall out"
You cared about this person, you never wanted things to end. You tried so hard to dodge every little bit of conflict or problem. But 'people are people and sometimes it doesn't work out.' It was inevitable, there was nothing you could do to stop it from ending this way.
"And we know it's never simple,
Never easy
Never a clean break, no one here to save me
You're the only thing I know like the back of my hand"
"And I can't,
Breathe,
Without you,
But I have to,
Breathe,
Without you,
But I have to"
"It's two am
Feelin' like I just lost a friend
Hope you know it's not easy,
Easy for me"
You're unable to sleep, this is really hard for you and you wish they could know that.
"It's two am
Feelin' like I just lost a friend
Hope you know this ain't easy,
Easy for me"
"And we know it's never simple,
Never easy
Never a clean break, no one here to save me"
"I can't,
Breathe,
Without you,
But I have to,
Breathe,
Without you,
But I have to"
"Breathe,
Without you,
But I have to"
"Sorry (oh) sorry
Sorry sorry
Sorry sorry"
You don't want to move on, but you have to, you're sorry to this friend for everything that's happened, that it is over and that your moving on... But there's nothing else you can do.
To all those people who are going through things like this- I'm so sorry. I know it hurts, but sometimes we need to move on to let things get better so we can finally breathe again. You are worth it. <3
