On “17250,” glaive sings about a break-up that left him desperate for a girl. glaive uses the main idea of being cauterized as a way to describe his pain after the breakup, with the chorus and bridge symbolizing his pain and regret in the mistakes he’d made.
The track was formerly known as “cauteri...
[Verse 1]
I never hoped for the best
But I'd be surprised if it got any worse, I swear
I never told you the truth, I realized
That you never cared at all
[Pre-Chorus]
I woke up this morning
On someone else's mattress
Don't mean to be a bother
But what the fuck just happened?
[Chorus]
And I fell apart in your driveway, like, a thousand times
Past few months, my dear, I've lived a thousand lives
I knew from the start that I, I should've drawn the linе
You're hot to the touch, my dear, I keep gеtting cauterized
[Verse 2]
I'm letting the blood build up in my mouth
I'm so damn scared of just letting it out
I'm so damn scared of the sound it'll make on the ground
[Pre-Chorus]
I woke up this morning
On someone else's mattress
Don't mean to be a bother
But what the fuck just happened?
[Chorus]
And I fell apart in your driveway, like, a thousand times
Past few months, my dear, I've lived a thousand lives
I knew from the start that I, I should've drawn the line
You're hot to the touch, my dear, I keep getting cauterized
[Bridge]
17-250 (Fuck me, why did I do that?)
17-250 (I can't stand myself but you knew that)
17-250 (250, 250)
17-250 (250, 250)
[Outro]
I woke up this morning
On someone else's mattress
Don't mean to be a bother
But what the fuck just happened?

17250 is the code used for chemical cauterization. In the song, glaive repeats this in the bridge, tying into the end of the chorus, where he says:
You’re hot to the touch my dear, I keep getting cauterized
So lore on this one, which this is some knowledge, this is some crazy shit that nobody even knows about. In the line, I say, ‘Hot to the touch my dear, I keep getting cauterized.’ Great lyric, everybody—. He’s so talented, he’s so talented. Um, and then my, my smartass was like, ‘What do you think t...
