The narrator is returning to the home and arms of a past lover, whose feelings for each other (and the narrator’s own status of sobriety) wax and wane, dip and rise, peak and trough.
I've been sleeping around your house all week
Stone cold sober and I still don't wanna leave
And try as I might to burn slow, not too bright
The swarms up above like a bee with a buzz
I've been sleeping around your house for a month
And I've been made to feel so welcome, thank you very much
And I'll try to forget, and I'll try to forget
That we grew up that summer we grew arms, we grew legs
And I wipe the slate clean and forget where I've been
It all tumbles above and I peak and I trough
I've been sleeping around for your house all week
Slowly edging yourself closer to me
And I've been keeping a safe distance, I didn't need
I'm stone cold sober and I still don't wanna go
And I'll try to forgive, and I'm trying to forget
And a constant reminder I'm a bee with a buzz
And I've wiped the slate clean, I still know where I've been
It all tumbles above, and I peaked and I troughed
And I learn to forgive you and I'll try to forget
That we grew up that summer we grew arms, we grew legs
I'm a constant reminder I'm a bee with that buzz
And I'll try to forget you, and I try to forget
And I wipe the slate clean, I still know where I've been
It all tumbles above me, and I peak and I trough
