Thinking Of You
PET Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
For the fifty seven thousandth time this morning.
I keep seeing you in sheets of white.
I can't change anything, I can't change aaannyything.
Aaaaaaaannnnnyyyyything.
I was out on my own, for the first time.
It was here all along, that I cracked.
Yeah I think I can do this all by myself.
I've been thinking of you a lot this morning.
For the fifty seven thousandth time today.
I will see you in pictures dressed as I am.
I can change anything, I can change aaannyything.
Ooohhh aaaaaaannnnnyyything.
I would like to tell you, where I'm going to.
I've seen it before, I've seen it before.
I would like to tell you, this is not about you.
I've seen it before, I've seen it before.
I keep thinking of you, you're on my mind.
The song Thinking of You by PET is a melancholic reflection of a past relationship that still lingers in the singer's mind. Despite the passage of time, the singer can't help but think of their former loved one. The opening line "I keep thinking of you, you're on my mind" sets the tone for the entire song as it portrays the constant presence of the ex in the singer's thoughts. It then goes on to emphasize the intensity of the thoughts by saying "for the fifty-seven thousandth time this morning". This repetition of thoughts leaves no room for the singer to move on and highlights their feeling of being trapped in the memory of the relationship.
The second verse explores the idea that sometimes one has to experience something first-hand to truly understand it. The line "It was here all along, that I cracked" suggests that the singer has been carrying an emotional burden for a while, but it took being alone for the first time to break down and face it. The singer then goes on to say "now it won't happen again till the next time", implying that the experience hasn't made them stronger and that they'll likely go through the same heartbreak again.
The final verse sees the singer struggling to move past the relationship and find their own way. They want to make a clean break but are haunted by memories of their ex-partner. The line "I will see you in pictures dressed as I am" shows how memories can blur the line between past and present, making it difficult to move on. The concluding lines "I would like to tell you where I'm going to/ I've seen it before, I've seen it before" imply that the singer has been through this cycle of heartache before and will likely experience it again in the future.

@allie935
I chose pile one. I had a bearded dragon and he’d always stare at me or observe what I was doing and he looked like he understood things in his eyes. I got to a place where I couldn’t take good care of him anymore due to work and almost getting evicted. I gave him to a nice couple and I hope they take good care of him. I feel bad I didn’t spend more time with him in the last few months. I also had cats and Guinea pigs in highschool I miss them.
