I wish I could say I just care about you
But only teenagers are romantic people
And today I just care about rock'n'roll
I was fine before you came

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to Raein's song "I Was Fine Before You Came" reflect a sense of nostalgia and longing for the past. The singer wishes they could say they care only about the person they are addressing, but acknowledges that only teenagers are that romantic. Instead, they find solace in rock'n'roll and reflect on the time before this person entered their life.

The lyrics are a complex mix of emotions and conflicting feelings. The singer seems to have a sense of regret for allowing this person to impact their life so much, but also acknowledges that they were happy before they came. They are struggling to reconcile their current feelings with their past state of mind.

Ultimately, the lyrics are about how relationships change and affect us. It's a reminder that we have the power to create happiness for ourselves and that we should hold onto the things that make us feel alive, whether that's rock 'n' roll or something else.
