Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
things didn't go the right way
and all I'm asking is "what's the right way?"
to you
why does it always feel like that?
there's no one around when you need him sometimes
like that
do you even ask yourself if
you're not happy with yourself
mabey when you're feeling better
we could start again
why does it always feel like that?
there's no one around when you need him sometimes
like that
there's no one around when you need him sometimes
like that
I know I have to let you go and
things didn't go the right way
and all I'm asking is "what's the right way?"
to you
why does it always feel like that?
there's no one around when you need him sometimes
like that
there's no one around when you need him sometimes
like that
there's no one around when you need him sometimes
like that

The artist also poses a thought-provoking question to the other person, asking if they have ever questioned whether they are truly happy with themselves.
Overall, the song captures the emotional turmoil of a relationship coming to an end and the struggles that come with it. The artist's vulnerability in their lyrics is relatable to anyone who has experienced heartbreak and is searching for answers.
