Sounds like Kimbra is singing about one of her first loves, holding them ‘like a present in that childhood bed’.
Maybe the relationship ended with little closure, hence the lines:
‘You want a reason for the way I left’,
‘why did we grow apart and fall like dominos?’
Afterglow Lyrics
[Verse 1]
You want an answer for the way we parted
I know, I know
Time goes so slow
The lull of our afterglow
You want a reason for the way I left
I know, I know
Why did we grow far apart
And fall like dominoes?
[Chorus]
One by one
I heard you like a present in that childhood bed
That time we met
One with a loneliness
I begin to touch you with my restlessness
One by one
Air is heavy
The dust commits
I guess I was high maintenance
High maintenance
Oh, oh, oh
[Verse 2]
Don't forget the feeling of remembering
A home, a home
It leads you forward like the light in a corridor
Did we give up or did we give in?
No way to know
Everything calls us to hold our breath and let it go
[Chorus]
One by one
I heard you like a present in that childhood bed
That time we met
One with a loneliness
I begin to touch you with my restlessness
One by one
Air is heavy
The dust commits
I guess I was high maintenance
High maintenance
