The lyrics to the chorus speak of the pain the singer experiences in their relationship. It is evident that they do not feel comfortable or safe in this relationship. For some reason, they are insecure about their flaws, which should not be an issue at all in a loving and tender relationship. The singer is regretting chasing this ‘love’ which turned out to be something else entirely.
Verse 1
In the first verse of the song, NF weighs in on this traumatizing experience he is going on in this relationship. The worst feeling is that he finds no ending to this misery. It is unclear why he cannot call it quits. But we have one hint in the lyrics; “Makin’ you cry makes me feel like a bad person.” Maybe she does not feel the same way as he does.
This toxic relationship has impacted the singer’s life and his perspective of things around him.
Verse 2
In these lyrics, the singer explains how this internal conflict has affected his life in general. His mind is not at peace. This impacts his other relationships such as friends and family, and not in a positive way either.
NF says that he said some hurtful things to his partner last week, which presumably made them cry. He despises seeing them cry too. But he also despises the mental torture he endures in trying to rectify everything.
The singer confesses that he tries so hard to digest this pain and keep moving on. But this never helps. It will keep burning him inside until the time it explodes all over. The end result will not be pretty.
