Intro: - Verse: I dreamt you seduced me just to walk away I dreamt you inspired then rewired what I say I dreamt you spread your bottom wings and pulled me to the bed But then I woke up feeling nauseous you danced around my head Tell me How long how long have I been down? How long how long have I been down? () How long how long have I been down down down? Verse: I dreamt you burned my fingers yes an automatic sting I dreamt you called me beautiful then asked to hear me sing I dreamt you sat invited me to crawl within your space But then I woke up feeling nauseous girl you danced around my face Tell me How long how long have you been down? How long how long have you been down? () How long how long have you been down down down? Bridge: Why can’t we work when we both try? We try we try we try we try. Why can’t this work when we both try? Why can’t it work when we both try? We try we try we try How we try... And how we try... Interlude: - (x3) Verse: I meant to sympathize I meant to be a friend I know apologizing won’t erase the end But I learn that moving on is where I must begin Because when our colors mixed We couldn’t fix the way they wouldn’t blend So Tell me How long how long have we been down? How long how long have we been down? () How long how long have we been down down down? Bridge: And I wish that only greatness follow you around () I hope to God you find a way to keep from down () When you do I hope you share it all with me () Please try to understand yeah to understand me () () Just try to understand me yeah understand me () How long how long have we been down down down yeah Outro:

À propos de la chanson

Cette chanson évoque les sentiments de confusion et de tristesse liés à une relation tumultueuse. Le protagoniste semble se débattre avec des rêves et des désirs d'intimité qui se heurtent à la réalité d'une connexion qui ne fonctionne pas. Les rêves d'amour et de compréhension sont souvent suivis par un réveil douloureux, plongeant l'individu dans la question du temps passé à se sentir au fond du gouffre. Les paroles révèlent une lutte pour comprendre ce qui ne va pas, malgré tous les efforts consentis pour que les choses s'arrangent. Le contexte sous-jacent suggère une lutte émotionnelle intense, où l’on réalise que le chemin du pardon et de l'avancement est souvent semé d’embûches. Cela touche à des thèmes universels comme l'attachement, la perte et la recherche de rédemption, illustrant une quête pour reconstruire une relation ou, à défaut, trouver un moyen de se relever.
