Arthur Shastra Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I won't mind the friend zone my broken heart you carry on hoping time had forgot
can we go back to when things were simple can we pawn back to when we were ushered
can we go back to when things were simple can we pawn back to when we were ushered
we are wrecking to pieces we don't know how to put together we are falling to pieces I don't know we can get it
can we go back to when things were simple can we pawn back to when we were ushered
can we go back to when things were simple can we pawn back to when we were ushered
you will be so sorry some day you want to be with me one day
you will be so sorry some day you want to be with me one day
can we go back to when things were simple can we pawn
back to when we were ushered
can we go back to when things were simple can we pawn back to when we were ushered
next time that you do anything that were simple let's go back to you and me
The lyrics to Arthur Shastra's song, "Can We Go Back," convey a sense of longing for a simpler time and a desire to revisit a past relationship. The singer acknowledges that they have been relegated to the "friend zone" by their former love, but they are willing to carry the burden of a broken heart in the hopes that time might have erased the pain.
The repeated refrain, "can we go back to when things were simple," speaks to a desire for the uncomplicated joy of earlier days, when the two were "ushered" and in love. However, as the song progresses, it becomes clear that the relationship has deteriorated - "we are wrecking to pieces" - and the singer is unsure how to fix it.
The final lines of the song, "next time that you do anything that were simple let's go back to you and me," suggest that the singer may be holding onto a glimmer of hope for a reconciliation.
Overall, the lyrics can be interpreted as a plea for a return to a happier time, despite the challenges that have arisen since then.
