the lyrics of the verses of this song describe a relationship with a very different dynamic than ours. and yet as i listen to the words of the choruses and bridge, i have wondered, "is this us, and more particularly is this you in the titular role even a few months hence?" and i close my eyes and my fears trickle out and i see your face with that familiar smirk and i hear you say, "you worry too much." and all i can think in response is, "yes, i do. yes, i do." and i wonder, "shouldn't someone?"
