Glue
Benjamin Trillado Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
And I don't know what to do
How am I suppose to clear my head
When you're calling again and again
Screaming out that I'm wrong
Screaming out "We cannot end"
I don't know what to think anymore
We are broken
Broken in two
Stop trying to fix us
Its as useless as glue
I'm suppose to miss you
But I've been fine on my own
You couldn't have known
That my feelings would go
Theres no flowers, days, or nights
That would change my mind
And I hate to say that we are just a temporary thing
But I want permanence in my life
We are broken
Broken in two
Stop trying to fix us
Its as useless as glue
Stop trying to fix me
Fix me and you
Cause we don't need fixing
We just need someone new

I don't know what to think
I am uncertain about what to feel
And I don't know what to do
I am unsure about what actions to take
How am I suppose to clear my head
I do not know how to stop being confused
When you're calling again and again
You keep calling, which adds to my confusion
Screaming out that I'm wrong
You are loudly declaring that I am at fault
Screaming out 'We cannot end'
You are loudly stating that we cannot break up
I don't know what to think anymore
I am totally perplexed at this point
Now that our love's up and gone
Our love is over, and has been for some time now
We are broken
Our relationship is finished
Broken in two
We are completely separated
Stop trying to fix us
Please stop attempting to repair our relationship
Its as useless as glue
It is a hopeless endeavor
I'm suppose to miss you
I am expected to feel a void without you
But I've been fine on my own
However, I have been quite content without you
You couldn't have known
You could not have understood this
That my feelings would go
That my emotions would change so drastically
Theres no flowers, days, or nights
No number of romantic gestures can change my mind
That would change my mind
My opinion is set in stone
And I hate to say that we are just a temporary thing
I regret acknowledging that we were only a short-lived fling
But I want permanence in my life
But I am seeking a lasting, meaningful relationship
Stop trying to fix me
Please do not attempt to change me
Fix me and you
Or the both of us
Cause we don't need fixing
We are not the ones in need of change
We just need someone new
We should both find new partners
