letting you in
awfultune Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I wanna get really wasted and go buy sage...
And be like "Hey", like, really loud, and be like "I'm awfultune!"
"[?] raw muscle?"
"Not really"
"Okay"
I got your message
Don't have the answers
So I've been feeling pretty down
They tell me to move on
But I don't know how
I still think you're lovely
Even when you shut me out
What about the things we said
To each other when we laid in bed?
Yeah, I can't even feel without you
I can't eat my next meal without you
What about the things we did?
You know, it wasn't easy letting you in
So how could you leave without me?
How'd you go to sleep without me?
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh
I still got issues
With the way that you handled me and you
I wish there could've been another way
'Cause I don't know what you're doing today
And it drives me fucking sane
So what do I do?
I think I'm in love with you
What about the things we said
To each other when we laid in bed?
Oh, I can't even feel without you
I can't eat my next meal without you
What about the things we did?
You know, it wasn't easy letting you in
So how'd you leave without me?
How'd you go to sleep without me?
Hey, hey
What about the things we said
To each other when we laid in bed?
Yeah, I can't even feel without you
I can't eat my next meal without you
So what about the things we did?
You know, it wasn't easy letting you in
So how'd you leave without me?
How'd you sleep without me?
The lyrics of "Letting You In" by Awfultune is a song about heartbreak and the struggle of moving on from a past relationship. The first verse is about how the singer wants to escape the pain of the breakup by getting wasted and going to buy sage. The singer wants to announce themselves loudly and proudly in an effort to cope with the loss of the relationship. This could represent the desire to distract oneself from the pain by doing something else or running away from it.
In the next verse, the singer acknowledges that they received the message from the lover and that it is clearer now that the relationship is over. The singer admits that they are feeling down and lost after the break-up, and though people tell them to move on, they don't know how. They admit that they still think their lover is lovely, even though they have been shut out.
The chorus repeats the questions about what they said and did with each other in bed, highlighting how difficult it was to let their lover in, and how impossible it is to function without them. The repetition of the questions emphasizes the pain and the difficulty in dealing with a broken heart. The singer is left confused and hurt and their longing for the past is evident.
