From what i gather, the song is about rejection (“i want you, you don’t want me”) and then possibly the singer kidnaps their crush and makes them spend the night with them. (unsure but possible)
[Intro]
Haha!
Haha!
[Verse 1]
The way I broke your heart, very literally
This ghost haunts me more than it should be
I'm not gonna walk away or turn my head in shame
I never thought it could kill me
[Pre-Chorus]
A clean slate, one more day, further away
[Chorus]
I want you, you don't want me
My mistake for wasting yours and mine
I want you, but will you stay
With me today? With me today?
[Interlude]
Ch-ck-cha
[Verse 2]
Just let me make some time to take it back a little
The way you smile shines the heavens above me
(Heavens above me)
Never gonna let you go, I want you all the time
I gotta prove you can trust me
[Pre-Chorus]
A clean slate, one more day, further away
[Chorus]
I want you, you don't want me
My mistake for wasting yours and mine
I want you, but will you stay
With me today? With me today?
I need you, you don't need me
When you are low, I am not okay
I want you, but will you stay
With me today? With me today?
With me today? With me today?
[Instrumental Bridge]
[Pre-Chorus]
A clean slate, one more day, further away, yeah
[Chorus]
I want you, you don't want me
My mistake for wasting yours and mine
I want you, but will you stay
With me today? With me today?
I need you, you don't need me
When you are low, I am not okay
I want you, but will you stay
With me today? With me today?
With me today? With me today?
[Outro]
Ch-ck-ch-ka
