I don't think it's any secret that Joji has some considerable demons that come in the form of mental illness and the extreme difficulty one has with maintaining meaningful relationships while simultaneously combating said aforementioned demons... I believe this song is about this very real struggle....the meloncholy lyrics with the upbeat music, to me, represent what it's like to be in love with somebody and revel in said love, while also doing your utmost to suppress the crippling fear and anxiety of losing said love due to the knowledge that said anxiety and fear is a self-fulfilling prophecy... a really enjoyable cycle/process for all involved...
