blackbear Feat. Travis Barker Lyrics

Maybe we could talk tomorrow
The singer suggests talking to the addressee tomorrow when they are less hungover.

When I'm not so hungover
The singer wants to talk to the addressee when they feel better and more coherent.

I miss you at the worst times
The singer misses the addressee the most when they feel low or vulnerable.

I miss you even though it's over
Despite the end of the relationship, the artist still misses the addressee.

You cared when it was convenient
The artist feels that the addressee only cared when it was easy or practical for them to do so.

You said that you didn't mean it
The addressee claimed they didn't mean something they said, but the singer suspects they actually did.

You'd rather be alone, you'd rather be a ghost
The addressee prefers being solitary and barely present, emotionally or physically.

And I don't wanna believe it, yeah
The artist has trouble accepting the addressee's emotional stance.

(Na, na, na, na) I miss you even though that it's over
The artist still misses the addressee despite the end of the relationship.

Got me feelin pathetic for myself
The artist feels self-pitying and low.

I just don't get it
The singer doesn't understand why things have turned out the way they have.

I could be empathetic
The artist could show empathy, but struggles to do so.

We sleep in the same bed, feels like we're on different planets
Even though they sleep together, the singer and addressee feel completely disconnected from each other.

I gotta protect myself from something I'll just regret
The singer needs to protect themselves from actions they might later regret.

I'm holding a knife and running, not knowing where I'm headed
The singer feels like they are in a dangerous or unstable situation with no clear direction.

Forgive me for what I've done wrong
The artist wants forgiveness for any mistakes they have made in the relationship.

I wanna say sorry but it's been so long
The artist has difficulty expressing their remorse due to the amount of time that has passed.

I'm up all night, but sleepin' in late
The singer is having trouble sleeping and is oversleeping when they finally do rest.

I know that you'll be gone when I'm awake
The singer expects the addressee to be absent when they awaken from sleep.

We feel the same way, don't know how to fuckin' express it
Both the artist and addressee share similar emotions, but struggle to articulate them.

We wanna save each other from something we'll both regret
Both parties want to protect each other from potential pain or heartbreak, but may not know how to do so effectively.

It's like running with scissors, pretending we're gonna learn our lesson
The artist feels like they are engaging in risky behavior without fully acknowledging the potential consequences.

Forget I said it
The singer wants to retract what they just said and move on from the conversation topic.

(Na, na, na, na) I miss you even though that it's over
The artist still misses the addressee despite the end of the relationship.

So
The singer may be trailing off or leaving something unsaid.
