Are you gonna leave me?
Are you gonna leave before you show me?
Before we find that thing that we found before?

The lyrics of the song "Better Now" by Sebastian feat. Mayer Hawthorne convey a sense of longing and uncertainty in a relationship. The repeated questioning of "Are you gonna leave me?" suggests the fear of abandonment and the need for reassurance from the partner, Koreen. The repetition of the line "Before we find that thing that we found before?" signifies a desire to recapture the special connection they once had, implying that the relationship may be losing its spark or drifting apart. It reflects a plea for Koreen to stay and work on rediscovering the love they shared in the past.
The chorus of the song, "I feel better now, something original," can be seen as a personal awakening or realization that the singer is ready to move forward and embrace something new. The mention of lightweight and gentle winds alludes to a sense of freedom and relief, as if the burden of the strained relationship is being lifted. The line "Talking, spit it out, are you gonna feel me now?" hints at the need for open communication and emotional connection, suggesting that the singer wants Koreen to express her true feelings and fully engage in the relationship.

This song plays in the background when you are for the last time in that place you were daily for so long... Everything is about to change, the moments and people that coincided in that place will not be repeated again and honestly you don't feel ready for it

This song invokes so much nostalgia! It's like a song in one of those teen drama/movies where the end of high school (and grade school) is near and everyone is reminiscing on the good, the bad, the regrets: "I should've/shouldn't have done this/that" and have to come to terms with not being ready to graduate into the adult world.
That's just the vibe I got from the song, but that may just be me.
