LYRICS:
You hid me in your dorm room
It was Halloweekend, I just flew
across the globe, 22 hours just to see you
Just to barely fit on your twin-sized bed
and talk about your cool new friend
who I never met
who you dated as soon as I left
Carolina autumn
It had been a year since I saw you,
since we ended it, had a year to grow into the girl you always wanted
Now we’re holding hands, as not quite friends, but not quite lovers, well, we’ll just pretend
You say, “It’s complicated to make amends”
Well, is that the way that we’re headed then?
And you couldn’t answer me
Though you could pull me in while I brushed my teeth and let your hands both freely speak like I wasn’t ever gonna leave
You were all I’d ever known
And now I’m supposed to love you from a distance,
like it’s nothing, like it’s instant
and you say, “Let’s just see where this goes”
And I don’t know how or why you seem just fine
cause I’m having to grasp that you’re somehow not mine anymore
It’s so cruel how things are only almost like they were before
Like they were before
Like they were before
Like they were before
We walk downtown and it’s charming
You’re alarmingly disarming
Yeah, we’ve got 48 hours left
before I fly back to my death
while you stay just fine and feel alive
South of the Mason-Dixon line
where everyone closes shop at 9,
where you could somehow finally find
what you were desperately looking for
Funny how you thought that was gonna be New York
with our chalkboard walls and slanted floors
Oh, we could’ve had that and so much more
Ask your new lover what it’s like to be given
a real fighting chance before you wish her good riddance
Did anything ever really count
or was I just a two-year practice round?
You were all I’d ever known
And now I’m feeling stupid, you’re forbidden
They say yeah we were something, too bad we were children
Oh, I don’t know where to go
and I don’t know how or why you seem just fine
cause I’m looking at you and God knows you’re not mine anymore
It’s so cruel how things will never be the way they were before
Like they were before
It’s almost just like how it was before
But it’s not anymore

    GOD LOVES you REPENT and TRUST in JESUS before it's too late. Romans 10:9 if you declare with your mouth that, "Jesus is Lord" and believe in your heart that God raised Jesus from the dead you will be saved. brothers and sister repent and trust in God cause there is nothing in this world that can make you whole and save you EXEPT for God so brothers and sister ponder about what i commented here today and make your own judgement ok bye God Loves you repent and trust in Him (GOD) before it's too late...

    I know this is supposedly about a failed long-distance relationship. But somehow i relate to this song as two separated lovers reuniting after a bad breakup, maybe for a quick catch up or try to see if things could work out again, “holding hands as not quite friends but not quite lovers,” “who you dated as soon as i left,” “we could’ve had that and so much more,” idk thats just how i interpret the song. I’ve loved it the second i heard it and honestly it’s stuck in my head. I love you NIKI

    i think this is exactly what the song is about! It connects with High School in Jakarta and Oceans & Engines. It seems the first 2 years together didn't work out, and they were apart for 1 year. "Since we ended it, had a year to grow into the girl you always wanted " but she decided to give it another chance, and it turns out it's just not gonna work. So you were right on the money!

    Lirik dalam lagu² yg di nyanyikan niki tidak pernah gagal untuk menceritakan suasana yang related to much people. Me too.. makna lagu ini sangat dalam. Bagaimana suasana yang semakin hari semakin canggung. Hanya karna menyayangkan hubungan yg sudah terlanjur berjalan lama menjadi alasan utama untuk memaksa terus bersama. Setelah LDR kemudian bertemu kembali semua menjadi sangat berbeda. Dia sudah sibuk dgn dunia dan teman baru nya. Sedangkan aku hanya menjadi pelepas rindu sesaat karna masih menjadi kekasihnya yang bahkan hampir terabaikan karna hampir seperti tidak memiliki hubungan apapun... 😪😪

    What I love about Niki's latest songs, "Every Summer Time", "Split", and this one remind me of bittersweet cinematic experiences. Like "La La Land" or studio Ghibli movies like "From up on Poppy Hill". Truly Niki your tracks have become absolute masterpieces. Split especially is the song I relate to the most, albeit in a different way. Alot better than most of the popular music I hear too much on the radio these days. Thank you Niki for your wonderful music in these hard times.

    The writing emphasizes story and intricate details over melodicism and falling on beat. These kinds of songs are not that common and are usually crafted more to tell a story with great detail and accuracy than to be a "good and catchy" song. Which is why I appreciate NIKI a lot because this road is not commonly walked on, especially by young, up-and-coming artists. It usually takes an "established" career to express this kind of artistry.

    "It's so cruel how things were only almost like they were before" relate to me so hard. We spent college years together for almost 2 years and when I graduated i had to go back to my hometown and that's when we have to breakup. Idk how many times we go back together, i dont count it anymore. And last week we broke up again after 6 months start talking again in long distance relationship. But everything just doesn't seem right anymore even if we were still together now. That's also why "You were all i'd ever known, and now im feeling stupid" and "I dont know where to go" is related to me also. I really dont have or know where to go anymore but him😿
