Matt And John Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
A day with you would last the rest of time
Tell you not, but I'll tell your friends
And I tell myself it works out in the end
Level head
I'd rather die
Every time I look at those eyes
Never gonna tell you cause you already know
About the feelings for you that I cant control
Talking to you just makes me feel this way
And I hope to feel it again another day
Level head
I'd rather die
Every time I close my eyes
I see green
Until the day I die
I know I'll surely cry
Before I close my eyes
And say my last goodbyes
I hope to look up at blue skies
And have only green to see
I see green
Glad to have seen

Line by Line Meaning
I wish I could go back in time
I yearn to change the past
Tell you it has turned out fine
Reassuring you that everything has worked out well
Like it has, like it has, like it has
Emphasizing that things have been going smoothly
I sit here singing in the sun
Presently, I am enjoying the warmth of the sun while singing
Words not meant for anyone
These words I'm singing are not meant for anyone else to hear
Just you, just you, just you
Only you are meant to hear these words
'Cause this is the song, this is the song
This very song I'm singing right now
Oh yeah
An enthusiastic expression of approval and agreement
This is the song that I wrote myself in the future
I composed this specific tune inspired by my future self
The air was shot of hope
There seemed to be no hope left in the air
Knots became your name for the rope
You started to identify the rope with knots and their connotations
Then the noose, then the noose, then the noose
It spiraled downward until achieving a dead end
You put it down and found it made no sense
You attempted to solve the problem but to no avail
You bought the farm and then you built the fence
You invested greatly but had to put up your guard eventually
At your expense, at your expense
At the cost of your own well-being
And this is the song, this is the song
This same song I'm singing now
I know it's hard as you hear this for you to see
It's difficult for you to perceive this as you listen
The desperation you feel now will disappear one day
The feeling of hopelessness you're struggling with will soon vanish
For you, for me
It'll be gone for both of us
This is the song that you wrote yourself in the future
This same tune you're hearing was originally written by your future self
