[Chorus]
Trust issues got me being cautious
Not friendly – niggas rolling swishers
Do I wanna hit it – not really
Blood in the streets for any one of my niggas
I’m ridin solo – …
[Hook:]
I’m kissing styrofoam
You know what I be on
Thats what I be on
She know what I be on
Who know what I be on
Thats what I be on
Baby move along
I keep moving …
He’s still driving that 1970 hand-me-down truck
And he’s still wearing that red and black jersey
Waiting for the band to start up
He’s still showing up twenty late, finding hearts and rules …
You know I’m gonna hit it on the radio
You know I’m gonna put it on my video
I know you gon’ be turning up the volume
I know you wanna split me …
I’d rather go blind, blind, blind
Than to see you with her tonight
I’m done with your lies
But I can’t say goodbye
So, I’d rather go blind
[Verse 1]
See I remember, I remember that …
We’re like fireworks and symphonies exploding in the sky.
With you, I’m alive1
Like all the missing pieces of my heart, they finally collide.2
So stop time right here in the moonlight,
Cause I don’t ever wanna close my eyes.3
Without you, I feel broke.
Like I’m half of a whole.4
Without you, I’ve got no hand to hold.
Without you, I feel torn.5
Like a sail in a storm.6
Without you, I’m just a sad song.
I’m just a sad song.7
With you I fall.
It’s like I’m leaving all my past in silhouettes up on the wall.8
With you I’m a beautiful mess.
It’s like we’re standing hand in hand with all our fears up on the edge.9
So stop time right here in the moonlight,
Cause I don’t ever wanna close my eyes.
Without you, I feel broke.
Like I’m half of a whole.
Without you, I’ve got no hand to hold.
Without you, I feel torn.
Like a sail in a storm.
Without you, I’m just a sad song.
You’re the perfect melody,
The only harmony
I wanna hear.10
You’re my favorite part of me,
With you standing next to me,
I’ve got nothing to fear.11
Without you, I feel broke.
Like I’m half of a whole.
Without you, I’ve got no hand to hold.
Without you, I feel torn.
Like a sail in a storm.
Without you, I’m just a sad song.
Without you, I feel broke.
Like I’m half of a whole.
Without you, I’ve got no hand to hold.
Without you, I feel torn.
Like a sail in a storm.
Without you, I’m just a sad song.
I’m just a sad song.12

To me this song isn’t necessarily about two lovers, although it could be taken that way. So here is my thought on this song:
1. This song is about two people that were very close (i.e best friends, sisters, brothers, etc.) but something happens between them like they got into a large fight, someone died. They’re explaining how terrible it is to be without them.

and calming

To me this song means a lot. I see it as a relationship between two people whether it be boyfriend and girlfriend ,friendship, or family; something happened between the two of them and they don’t want to be apart. I relate to it with my dad. Without him I’m nothing and things would be so different. I can be myself around him and I don’t have to be alone. With him next to me I don’t have to be afraid. Without him I’m a mess

I agree with the explanation it gives here. Everywhere I go people comment on how this song reminds them of a fight they had with a friend or how someone they know died. I thought I was the only one that actually saw it as a happy song, a song about finding your other half. There is no mention of a fight or a loss or a falling out in the lyrics. It’s just two people saying to each other: “You complete me. If you left, I would be very sad.”
