Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
In the morning I'm wasted
You I am chasing
You I'm embracing
Right now
In a way I know you
So well it's a shame that we can let go
Right now
What if it is lust?
I long for your touch
Right now
And I never know best
I couldn't care less when your legs wrap around me
Right now
I wonder who you're with
Wonder how you've been
I'm all alone
Right now
Nobody's gonna believe me
When I saw all your secrets and the things you keep hidden
Right now
I wanna be where I wanna be with you
Right now
I wanna be where I wanna be with you
Right now
Yeah and I'm getting impatient
So sick of wasting my time
You don't love me at all
Yeah I want you around me
Want you inside me
I'm loosing my mind
Right now
Yeah I wish you would kill me
Then we could have the time of our lives
Right now
And these drugs taking over
I'm getting closer closer to you
Right now
I wanna be where I wanna be with you
Right now
I wanna be where I wanna be with you
Right now
Meet me after dark
Meet me in my room
I'll meet you at your spot
Right now
Meet me on the beach
Swimming in the sea
Feel the Hennessy
Right now
Meet me in the club
We'll be high on drugs
We don't give a fuck
Right now
Meet me in that place
Between being asleep and awake
Right now
I wanna be where I wanna be with you
Right now
I wanna be where I wanna be with you
Right now

Damn
Expressing frustration or disbelief
In the morning I'm wasted
I wake up feeling lost or drained
You I am chasing
I'm pursuing you with determination
You I'm embracing
I hold onto you tightly
Right now
At this moment
In a way I know you
I understand you to some extent
So well it's a shame that we can let go
Our connection is strong, but we're unable to move on
I don't know if it's love
I'm unsure if what I feel is love
What if it is lust?
Could it just be desire?
I long for your touch
I crave your physical contact
And I never know best
I struggle to make the right decisions
I couldn't care less when your legs wrap around me
I'm indifferent when we're intimate
I wonder who you're with
I ponder who you're spending time with
Wonder how you've been
Curious about your well-being
I'm all alone
Feeling lonely
Nobody's gonna believe me
No one will trust me
When I saw all your secrets and the things you keep hidden
I discovered your hidden secrets
I wanna be where I wanna be with you
I desire to be with you wherever I choose
Yeah and I'm getting impatient
I'm becoming restless
So sick of wasting my time
Tired of wasting time
You don't love me at all
You don't have any feelings for me
Yeah I want you around me
I desire your presence
Want you inside me
Craving intimacy
I'm losing my mind
I'm going crazy
I wish you would kill me
I wish you'd bring excitement into my life
Then we could have the time of our lives
We could experience something incredible together
And these drugs taking over
Substances are starting to control me
I'm getting closer closer to you
I'm growing more attached to you
Meet me after dark
Let's meet when it's nighttime
Meet me in my room
Come to my private space
I'll meet you at your spot
I'll come to wherever you are
Meet me on the beach
Let's meet by the sea
Swimming in the sea
We'll swim together in the ocean
Feel the Hennessy
Experience the effects of alcohol
Meet me in the club
Join me at a social venue
We'll be high on drugs
Intoxicated by substances
We don't give a fuck
We don't care about anything
Meet me in that place
Let's rendezvous in that obscure location
Between being asleep and awake
In a state of consciousness in transition
