Suck and Run
Console Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Maybe you miss my dirt.
Maybe your dog or maybe your god
or maybe you missed a call tonight.
Maybe I missed the end.
Maybe I miss my friends.
Maybe the sun or maybe the moon
But I don’t miss you tonight.
That isn’t meant to piss you off one more time.
Maybe you take my hand.
I try to do what I can.
I try not to cry, I try not to run.
I try not to wish it all undone.
Maybe my thought is wrong.
Maybe we’re just too strong.
Maybe I killed the love that I spilled
and maybe this was a rescue trap.
But I don’t miss you tonight.
That isn’t meant to piss you off one more time.
It does not mean that you don’t mean a thing to me.
But that’s the only way I’ll finally succeed.
in being me.
The lyrics of Console's song "Suck and Run" portray a sense of confusion and uncertainty about a past love. The singer questions whether they or the person they're addressing missed important moments and opportunities in their relationship. The uncertainty is evident in lines like "maybe you missed a call tonight" or "maybe I missed the end." The lyrics suggest that perhaps the relationship ended because of the singer's actions, as they speculate, "maybe I killed the love that I spilled." The singer tries to reconcile their conflicting emotions, attempting not to cry or run from the feelings they still have.
However, the most impactful line of the song is "But I don't miss you tonight. That isn't meant to piss you off one more time." This line conveys a sense of empowerment and self-possession, suggesting that the singer has finally come to terms with their emotions and is comfortable with who they are without this past love. Although the person still holds meaning to them, the singer knows that they have to move on to become their best selves.
The song showcases the complexity of relationships and the introspection required after a break-up. The lyrics are poetic, and the melody is haunting, making "Suck and Run" a standout track.
