In this emotionally charged ballad, the artist grapples with the painful reality of a relationship that has lost its spark. The lyrics reflect an internal struggle, where the protagonist is torn between her affection for her partner and her need for personal growth and happiness. The 'dark' symbolizes a love shrouded in denial and fear of confronting the truth about their failing relationship. The 'oceans apart' signifies emotional distance that has grown over time. Despite acknowledging their shared history and appreciating the impact they've had on each other's lives, she realizes the importance of living authentically rather than merely surviving within a loveless union. The song serves as a poignant reminder that self-love should not be compromised for the sake of maintaining relationships.
