I'm tired of being into you
Can't get you out of my head
Life is so unfair
Last night was the first night
I didn't use our night light
It was just too bright
Just like you were that night

Line by Line Meaning
Wish the lies I told myself were true
I wish the false promises I made to myself were a reality
I'm tired of being into you
I'm exhausted from having feelings for you
Can't get you out of my head
You constantly occupy my thoughts
Life is so unfair
Existence is unjust
Last night was the first night
Yesterday evening marked a milestone
I didn't use our night light
I did not rely on our source of comfort or reassurance
It was just too bright
The light was overpowering or intense
Just like you were that night
Much like how you consumed my thoughts during that night
