Yeah
I be tryna understand
I be tryna understand yo thoughts
And I ain't really liking what I see
I'm sorry that I always trip a lot
I feel I'm in the dark and it's hurting me
Yeah I know I cannot restart

We gon be strong if you stay here with me
Sometimes I just feel like you ain't get it
You always on my mind and the only thing I mention
So I don't understand why I I'm out here feeling distant

Line by Line Meaning

I remember the nights we spent under city lights
I recall the evenings we shared under the bright lights of the city


This feelings got the best of me
This emotion has taken over me completely


We were floating along to the sounds of a dead end town
We were aimlessly drifting along, listening to the noises of a hopeless place


But now that's just a memory
But now, it's just a recollection of the past


I can't figure you out, you've got more fight in you
I cannot comprehend you; you have a lot of determination in you


Than anybody else
More than everyone else


And here's the part where I started to make my own damn decisions
This is the time when I began to make my own choices


And make a name for my self
And build a reputation for myself


I'll never be what you want
I will never be who you desire me to be


I wouldn't change any part of me
I wouldn't alter any aspect of myself


Just to make you stay
Just to keep you around


You had a piece of my heart
You had a place in my heart


But not enough to just run away
But it wasn't sufficient to prevent me from leaving


'Cause I know what's best for me
Because I am aware of what is most beneficial for me


Take all your big plans and throw them away
Discard all your significant plans


I've got something in mind before we go separate ways
I have an idea before we part ways


We ask the questions baby, Who provides the answers?
We're questioning, baby, Who offers the solutions?


I'm scared to death and it shows
I'm extremely scared, and it's evident


The flame burned out, but it glows
The flame has gone out, but it still shines


And the look in your eyes says things I don't wanna know
The expression in your eyes tells me things I'd rather not hear


It's time to go!
It's time to leave!


Come closer!
Come nearer to me!


And I can't say anything, everything comes out the wrong way
I'm unable to express anything properly; everything that comes out, is off-base


Just try, just try a little harder
Just give it a shot, try a little bit more


I'll do my best explaining all the things I'm going through
I'll try my best to clarify all that I'm experiencing


This is why I can't adjust for you
This is the reason I can't change for you


You can't say
You cannot declare


The look in your eyes says things I don't wanna know
The expression in your eyes conveys things I'd rather not hear


No you, you can't stay
No, you cannot remain


I wanna be with you, and no one else
I want to be with you and no one else


I need you to feel the way that you felt that summer night
I require you to feel the identical way you felt that summer evening


When you found that puzzle piece missing for eight straight weeks
When you found that problem piece absent for eight continuous weeks


You're not the perfect fit
You're not the ideal match
