In this emotionally charged track, the artists delve into themes of self-deception and relational turmoil. The recurring refrain, "I'm so good at lying about why I'm alone," suggests a deep-seated habit of denying or rationalizing one's feelings of loneliness and relationship failures. The lyrics portray a cycle of conflict and reconciliation, highlighting the difficulty of honest communication in strained relationships. Through metaphors like being "half insane" and comparing emotional defense to a sports strategy, the song captures the complexity and pain of trying to maintain a connection when both parties are hurting. Ultimately, it reflects on the struggle to confront personal flaws and the yearning for resolution and companionship.
