Figure
Matthew & Me Lyrics

I just need some
The singer desires to spend some time with their partner

Time with you to
The singer wants to spend quality time with their partner

Figure out
The singer wants to resolve an issue that they are facing

How to be myself
The artist is having a hard time being true to themselves around their partner

With you
The artist wants to be more at ease around their partner

It's time I'm
The singer realizes it is time for them to change their ways

Here for you
The singer wants to be present for their partner

So bad at staying around
The artist has trouble being there for their partner as often as they would like

I guess I'm
The artist is acknowledging a fault of their own

Here for you
The artist is willing to be present for their partner

I just don't show it as much
The singer realizes they need to demonstrate their love for their partner more often

But I love you
The artist has strong feelings for their partner

I'm just busy
The singer is preoccupied with other things in their life

and I've been distant for about a month
The singer has been emotionally distant from their partner for some time

But you're still here
The singer is grateful for their partner's loyalty despite their shortcomings

Supportive
The artist acknowledges their partner's support

You deserve what I give and so much more
The artist acknowledges that their partner deserves more than what they have been giving

Um never mind
The singer has changed their mind and no longer wishes to elaborate on what they were going to say

Killing myself just to release some stress
The singer is harming themselves to alleviate stress

It probably wouldn't kill me to text
The artist realizes they can stay in touch with their partner more often

From work a little more
The artist can afford to take breaks from work to be there for their partner

Instead of starting a war
The artist wants to avoid arguments with their partner

Knock on wood
The singer is attempting to prevent something bad from happening

I don't know but I should
The artist recognizes they should do something, even if they are unsure of what that may be

We would be good
The singer believes their relationship would be better if they made some changes

Nearly perfect in fact
The singer believes their relationship has the potential to be great, but it needs work

Can't think of two things like cat in the hat
The singer believes their relationship is unique and cannot be compared to anything else

I wanna knock this out the park
The artist wants to succeed in making their relationship better

Like Babe Ruth up at bat
The artist wants to make a big impact on their relationship

From now on I'll be present like what's in Santa Claus sack
The singer promises to be more available and committed to their partner

Sitting on the dock of the bay
The singer is enjoying a peaceful moment by the water

No reason to think this could be a bad day
The artist is optimistic about their day

I'm sitting by the beach
The artist is enjoying their surroundings

With bad thought all out of reach
The artist is free from negative thoughts

And nothin on my nerves but the sun beams
The singer is relaxed and content

Look at me
The artist is reflecting on their current state
