Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
If you can't see that I'm here
Did the moment pass you by
Are the words there out to try
'Cause you were what I thought you thought I knew
I followed you so fast
Made me run and then I learned that taking time will make us last
Tell me if you love someone
She tells you how to live your life
Looking for something more
Don't wanna be nobody else
And you let them know that
It's not you
You're not afraid
Lines around your eyes will disappear
If you don't know where you go
If you won't leave til it's done
Tell me if there can't be won
I don't know where we should run
Watch and hear the noise it makes you smile
But it will make you burned
We're all rushing in around
Let's make it work and see what we have learned
Tell me if you love someone
She told you how to live your life
Looking for something more
Don't wanna be nobody else
And you let them know that
It's not you
You're not afraid
Lines around your eyes will disappear
All of this falls down
All of this falls down
Words that will fall out
Faster than your running oh
And I heard that
Did you let them go to waste
The words they will fall out
Faster than your running oh
And I heard that
Did you let them
Tell me if you love someone
Do you love them all
She tells you how to live your life
Looking for something more
Don't wanna be nobody else
And you let them know that
It's not you
You're not afraid
Lines around your eyes will disappear

If you can't see through it all
If you cannot see beyond the surface
If you can't see that I'm here
If you cannot see that I am present with you
Did the moment pass you by
Did you miss the chance to grasp the moment
Are the words there out to try
Are the words being spoken without real meaning
'Cause you were what I thought you thought I knew
You were what I believed you thought I knew
I followed you so fast
I pursued you rapidly
Made me run and then I learned that taking time will make us last
I chased you, and then I realized that being patient will help us build a lasting relationship
Tell me if you love someone
Inform me if you have strong feelings for somebody
She tells you how to live your life
She dictates how you should lead your life
Looking for something more
Seeking more than what you have
Don't wanna be nobody else
Do not wish to be anyone else
And you let them know that
And you make them aware of that fact
It's not you
It is not your fault
You're not afraid
You are not scared
Lines around your eyes will disappear
The lines around your eyes will vanish
If you don't know where you go
If you are unaware of your destination
If you won't leave til it's done
If you refuse to depart until the work is finished
Tell me if there can't be won
Inform me if there is no chance of succeeding
I don't know where we should run
I am unsure where we should go
Watch and hear the noise it makes you smile
Observe and listen to the sound that brings joy to you
But it will make you burned
But it will harm you in the end
We're all rushing in around
We are all moving around hastily
Let's make it work and see what we have learned
Let us make it work and observe what we have discovered
All of this falls down
Everything falls apart
Words that will fall out
Words that will escape
Faster than your running oh
Faster than you can run, oh
And I heard that
And I heard about that
Did you let them go to waste
Did you allow those words to go to waste
Tell me if you love someone. Do you love them all?
Inform me if you love someone. Do you love them all equally?

I was born to a long one
Had a thing for stepping cross one
If you catch me past most 12 AMs you'll find me swerving off some
Lines, lines
Yeah words got me strung out
Coming home to a ghost town
I can't sleep it's killing me
I keep telling myself it ain't cause of these white lines

But I swear I'm trying to get out of this hell
Every time I look for love I end up hurting myself
From the outside looking in I just fucked up again
If you cared enough you'd see
There's more to me than meets the eyes
If you read between the lines
Yeah I guess we finally burned out
She's in someone else's truck now
All those never again and where you been's turned into me running out
Of lines, lines
But I swear I'm trying to get out of this hell
Every time I look for love I end up hurting myself
From the outside looking in I just fucked up again
If you cared enough you'd see
There's more to me than meets the eye
If you read between
The lines on the bathroom counter
All the ones from the drunk texts after
Every time I try to rewrite my lines I get stuck here in this chapter
But I swear I'm trying to get out of this hell
Every time I look for love I end up hurting myself
From the outside looking in I just fucked up again
If you cared enough you'd see
There's more to me than meets the eyes
