On the surface a rejection of love in favour of personal ambition. Beneath that layer, a rebuke of a lover. One layer beneath that: A criticism of my own lies and hypocrisy.

lyrics

It's not worth it,
is it
really now?

I would rather play guitar
than ever play
with you again

Fingering positions
and the utmost pleasure
of a song that's sung
in unison with friends

I am always finding
new chords to play,
even if they are actually
always the same.

I am forever in
the position of
pushing fingers onto strings
and I

am never wanting
of anything
more than this
and that's everything.

I just love this more than I ever really loved you.
I just love this more than I ever really loved you.

When I'm playing with myself
I find myself
in ways you never could
find me.

I can push on these strings
in ways you never could.
at least not quite in
the right way.

You pluck and
twist and turn and you
BREAK and you
twist and turn and it

always spirals down
into something ugly
and discordant
something I would never wanna play

Ahhhh-AHHHHHH

Playing all the lines...
making up the words...
I can never find the right
ones to say to you.

And this is how I'll always wanna spend my time.
And this is how I always wanna spend my time.

I have a natural
talent for expressing my opinions
in the form of
chorus and a verse

and in some universe
you actually appreciate
the things that I can do
with a simple melody.

And I can never find
the right way to express
my feelings to a
wretched being such as you.

And in the strangest way
I don't really care.
Well, I don't really care!
I'm playing my guitar.

And that's all I really need.
And that's all I really need.
And that's all I really need.
