Clockwork
Lyldoll Lyrics

Good lord
Expression of surprise or admiration

Good lord, you're beautiful and I'mma miss it
Expressing regret at the loss of beauty

And it's gonna sting when I look at pictures
Sorrow at the thought of being reminded of the beauty

Maybe I just had too much time for thinkin'
Wondering if overthinking led to the situation

Drowning in the water that you've been swimmin' in
Feeling overwhelmed by the problems of the relationship

I'm just so sick of the same old ugly ending
Disgusted with the predictable outcome

Can we just talk it out like the beginning shit
Hoping to resolve issues like in the beginning of the relationship

I was kidding when I hope this is your dream
Joking in the past about the partner's dream

'Cause I really hope it is
Actually wishing partner's dream comes true

I been overwhelmed and you been over us
Feeling burdened and partner is done with the relationship

So I've been overacting, we both losin' trust
Exaggerating emotions and causing distrust

Asking where we at like "what the fuck is love?"
Questioning the meaning of love and the relationship

"Was it ever real or was it just the drugs?"
Wondering if love was genuine or fueled by drugs

I wish you could tell me what's on your mind
Desiring open communication and honesty

Don't forget about me but take your time
Asking partner to keep the relationship in mind amidst time apart

Maybe we need time
Acknowledging the need for time to think

C'mon talk to me, like do you give a fuck?
Urging partner to express concern for the relationship

Sayin' stupid shit like we should give it up
Saying regrettable things like ending the relationship

Problem with it is I know could be wrong
Admitting being wrong for saying regrettable things

If I'm not busy lovin' you, I'm busy movin' on
Confessing the tendency to move on from relationships

And if I don't do a thing I'mma lose it all
Realizing that doing nothing will result in losing everything

Finally grew out some wings now I'mma take the fall
Becoming independent and taking responsibility

Shit, I haven't even made it up to heaven's door
Feeling like things are not going well

But now I'm dancing with the devil 'cause he won my heart
Dating the wrong person despite all the warnings

Baby I need time
Expressing a personal need for time to think

[?] sittin' up on your lap
Unknown

Can you feel me freezin' on the things you lack?
Noticing the partner's flaws and unfulfilled needs

Had to come up at some point
Realizing that problems would surface eventually

Hold you at gunpoint
Metaphor for resorting to extreme measures to get love

Just to get love from you, and it ain't right
Recognizing that extreme measures are not right

And I'm too nice, and I'm too tight
Feeling like wanting too much in a relationship

And you're scared
Knowing that partner is scared

And I'm dumb, and you're weird
Acknowledging personal flaws and partner's eccentricities

So I'mma love you from afar, grab my guitar
Choosing to love from a distance and expressing it through music

And write a few songs about you
Creating art from the experiences

Shit, this just made my album
Using personal experience as material for an album
