If
Bush The Tree and Me Lyrics

What if tomorrow
The artist is expressing anxiety about the future

Tomorrow
The future, specifically the day after the present

What if tomorrow never comes
What if the future doesn't bring what the artist is hoping for

If it don't come I'm leaving
The artist is expressing a readiness to give up if their desired outcome does not happen

I'm leaving
The artist will depart the current situation

Said it so many times
The artist has voiced this sentiment repeatedly

I don't even believe it
The artist is expressing doubt about their own words

it ain't no secret"
This sentiment is not a secret; it's been expressed before

Left M.E. standing in the rain
The artist was abandoned in a lonely, sad state

Heart full of pain
The artist is expressing deep emotional hurt

Drowning from my own fears
The artist is succumbing to their own fears and anxieties

Damn
An expression of emotional intensity

How did we get here
The artist is questioning how they ended up in this situation

Tell M.E. Tell M.E.
The artist is asking someone to share their thoughts and feelings

How Dis gone work
The artist is questioning how the situation can be resolved

Damn this gone hurt
The artist is anticipating emotional pain

Yea It's gone hurt
The artist is certain that pain is coming

Felt it at the same time
Both the artist and someone else experienced the emotion simultaneously

Ain't no way You changing myyyyy Minnnnnnd
The artist is resisting being convinced to change their opinion

Go head don't waste my Time
The artist is asking to not have their time wasted

You know I really want you too
The artist feels attracted to someone

All the little things we do
The artist has fond memories of shared experiences

You know I'm lying
The artist is not being truthful

Pinocchio my nose didn't grow
An expression of the artist's dishonesty

Please don't go
The artist is begging someone to stay

I must be outta my Mind
The artist is questioning their own sanity

You know I really want you baby
An expression of the artist's continued attraction to someone

Even tho you drive M.E. crazy
The artist is acknowledging the other's frustrating behavior

Cant even deal with myself
The artist is struggling with their own issues

I need some time for M.E.
The artist needs time for self-care

Gas myself up in the mirror
The artist is building their own self-confidence

Crying myself a river
The artist is crying profusely

Timberland, to timber lake
A reference to two famous musicians/actors

I'm scorching everything in my wake
The artist is leaving destruction in their path

Everything in my wayyyy Everythang
The artist is wiping out everything in their path

Damn damn Damn it's gone hurt
The artist repeats their anticipation of emotional pain

Damn it's gone Damn
An expression of emotional tension

Damn it's gone hurt
The artist again anticipates emotional pain

It really is gone hurt
The artist expresses certainty that they will feel pain
