We’ve all been fools at some point. Some of us more recently than others.
To me, this song is about learning that things change. People change. It’s totally natural for this to happen! Embrace it. I’ve felt myself change a ton over the last five years honestly. A TON. I still have my stuff to work on, as we all do, but, I know I’m a better person than who I was five years ago, and that’s the goal.
This song talks about what that change did to a relationship.
“I liked you better in college, I thought I knew what I wanted, back then, I was a fool, it was love and it was hate, it was real, but it was fake, we were never gonna make it out in time, we were barely getting by, now we’re caught in between, getting old and getting free, we were never gonna make it out alive, we’re still barely getting by”
The fact that lyrics with such heaviness are put to such a poppy and bubbly beat is something that is so odd that it works in this instance. Ashe’s voice is so sweet as she coos “I was right and you were smart, I was high and you were art”. That description of falling head over heels for someone being like a lightning strike is great I think. I picture a friendly debate between the two that ends with her realization that she’s viewing “art”.
The fun part of this song for me, is we don’t know where these two are going at the end. They’ve both made these realizations but are…“still fallin'”. There’s some poetry there.
“I’m still there fallin’, we’re still lost darlin’, I’m still there fallin’, we’re still lost darlin'”
Get yourself a treat today. Doesn’t have to be a sweet something to eat, but just treat yourself to something today!
Be good, do good. Love ya.
everything, etc. 
Very on theme!
