Serious
Crash Romeo Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
But somehow I can't seem
To let you forget about me
'Cause you've moved on to better things
I've been lying in his gutter
With my heart filled up with sulfur
So light a match and trail the gasoline
This just got serious
I'm tired of giving up
And if this is true love
Why can't romance see lust?
Why can't romance see lust?
There's a party in the back room
With all the girls we've been through
And I looked for you
But I guess you weren't there
I'm tired and lonely and stupid and crazy
I'm full of excuses and totally useless
My patience is fading, it's so aggravating
And I can't even stand myself
This just got serious
I'm tired of giving up
And if this is true love
Why can't romance see lust?
Why can't romance see lust?
Woah, woah, I'll drag you down forever
Woah, woah, I'm gonna drag you down forever
Woah, woah, I'm gonna drag you down forever, forever
This just got serious
This just got serious
This just got serious
This just got serious
This just got serious
I'm tired of giving up
And if this is true love
Why can't romance see lust?
Why can't romance see lust?
Why can't romance see lust?

I've been trying to forget you
I've been making an effort to move on from our past relationship
But somehow I can't seem
Despite my efforts, I'm struggling to forget and move on from you
To let you forget about me
I can't help but feel like you still have thoughts and feelings about me
'Cause you've moved on to better things
You've advanced in life without me and it's hard for me to comprehend
I've been lying in his gutter
I've been dwelling in a miserable state
With my heart filled up with sulfur
With my heart filled with pain and resentment
So light a match and trail the gasoline
I'm self-destructive and want to fuel my pain
Take me down with me
I want to bring you down with me in my misery
There's a party in the back room
There's a sense of celebration and enjoyment in my surroundings
With all the girls we've been through
With all the other girls we've dated in the past
And I looked for you
I was hoping you'd be there
But I guess you weren't there
You weren't present, and it's disappointing
I'm tired and lonely and stupid and crazy
I'm exhausted, isolated, and my emotions are overwhelming me
I'm full of excuses and totally useless
I have no justification for my behavior and it's causing me to feel like a failure
My patience is fading, it's so aggravating
I'm losing my self-control and it's frustrating me
And I can't even stand myself
I'm unhappy with who I am and my actions
Woah, woah, I'll drag you down forever
I want to pull you into my negative headspace
Woah, woah, I'm gonna drag you down forever
I'm determined to bring you down with me
Woah, woah, I'm gonna drag you down forever, forever
I'll continue trying to bring you down for as long as I can
This just got serious
The situation is becoming critical
I'm tired of giving up
I'm weary of failing and quitting
And if this is true love
If what we had was genuine affection
Why can't romance see lust?
Why is there no passion or sexual desire between us?
Why can't romance see lust?
Why is there no passion or sexual desire between us?
Why can't romance see lust?
Why is there no passion or sexual desire between us?
