Restart
Kristian J Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

People like to come and go in this part of town
It's hard to catch a face that might stick around
You can tell I've been alone for a minute now
And I just wanna taste 'cause I've been missing out
Oh baby, do you wanna speak up?
Talk to me just to crank the heat up
Don't tell me you don't wanna keep up
With all the mess we made
What happened to you babe?
My heart will break
My bones grow thin
From holding up your
Empty weight covered in skin
That my touch longs for
In this situation
I'm losing patience
How will we fix our hesitations
I'm waiting
It's like we both forgot how to play the game
And every damn day is the same thing
You know our hearts have grown apart
Why don't we just press restart?
Why don't we just press restart?
Why don't we just press restart?
Why don't we just press restart?
Doesn't have to be so hard
Why don't we just press restart?
Why don't we just press restart?
Why don't we just press restart?
People like to tear apart what they're jealous of
Don't let them try to slide their way between the two of us
I see eyes watching every step we're taking but
I'll trip and fall as long as you're the one to pick me up
I'm trying every day to salvage
Forgotten treasures that we're throwing in the garbage
It's hard to recognize what love is
Now that it's in the grave
What happened to us babe?
It's like we both forgot how to play the game
And every damn day is the same thing
You know our hearts have grown apart
Why don't we just press restart
Why don't we just press restart
Why don't we just press restart
Why don't we just press restart
Doesn't have to be so hard
Why don't we just press restart




Why don't we just press restart
Why don't we just press restart

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of "Restart" by Kristian J reflect the feelings of longing, disappointment, and the desire to fix a failing relationship. The song begins by illustrating the transitory nature of relationships in the singer's town, where people come and go, making it difficult to find someone who will stay. The singer admits to feeling alone and missing out on the experience of being in a fulfilling relationship. They want someone to speak up and engage with them, to bring passion and intensity back into their life. However, the singer also acknowledges the mess they have both made and questions what happened to their partner, expressing a sense of heartbreak and disappointment.


In the chorus, the singer expresses the toll this relationship has taken on them. Their heart is breaking, and their strength is waning from carrying the weight of their partner's emptiness. The longing for physical intimacy and connection is evident as they describe their touch longing for their partner's skin. The singer feels trapped in this situation, losing patience and questioning how they can overcome their reservations and hesitations. They are waiting for a change or a resolution.


The second verse reveals the external pressures and doubts that surround their relationship. People are jealous and try to tear them apart, but the singer refuses to let them come between them. They are aware of the watchful eyes but is willing to face any obstacles as long as their partner is there to support them. The singer expresses their daily effort to salvage what they can from the relationship, hoping to rediscover the love they once had. However, they admit that it's become challenging to recognize what love truly is now that it seems to have died. The question "what happened to us, babe?" suggests a longing for the way things used to be.


In the chorus, the singer reiterates the idea that both they and their partner have forgotten how to make the relationship work. Each day feels repetitive and stagnant. Their hearts have drifted apart, and the singer proposes the idea of pressing restart, as a way to start anew and break free from the hardships they've been facing. They emphasize that it doesn't have to be so difficult, suggesting that they can rebuild their relationship with a fresh start.


Overall, "Restart" reflects the singer's desire for change and renewal in a failing relationship. They long for passion, connection, and the ability to overcome the obstacles that have come between them. The song captures the feelings of longing, disappointment, and hope for a new beginning.
