[Verse 1]
In this verse, the singer expresses feeling lost and unfocused, as if their attention is being manipulated. They’re overwhelmed by the pressure of the situation, which is growing more intense. The repeated “suffocating” suggests the discomfort and emotional strain they’re feeling. They’re also facing a façade of boring, fake expressions, adding to their sense of frustration.

[Pre-Chorus]
The singer acknowledges that they’re in a losing battle, aware that this emotional game isn’t in their favor. Even though they’re scared of being hurt, they still want the other person, feeling as if they have no choice but to give in. The other person pulls them in with charm, making them feel dizzy, yet they can’t resist wanting them more, despite the emotional turmoil.

[Chorus]
The chorus highlights the singer’s intense emotional conflict. The person they’re involved with has completely captured them, leaving them breathless, suffocated, and controlled. The repeated line “got the best of me” reflects how this person is overpowering them with charm, lies, and manipulation. The singer feels trapped, unable to break free from their hold, even though they know it’s not healthy.

[Verse 2]
In this verse, the singer admits that they can’t let go of the person, even though they’re being tricked again. They feel as though they’re being slowly destroyed by this person’s actions, but the person’s captivating appearance keeps them hooked. The singer feels like a puppet, controlled by the other’s charm and addiction, and it’s like they’re in a destructive relationship with no escape, even imagining themselves at the “end of the world.”

[Pre-Chorus]
Here, the singer can’t seem to forget the other person, despite how close they are to falling apart. They feel caught in a cycle of trying to reach out, struggling to keep up with this intense, all-consuming relationship. Even though things seem to be breaking, their desire for the other person remains strong, and they’re trapped in their world.

[Chorus]
The chorus is repeated, emphasizing the hold the other person has over the singer. The cycle of manipulation and suffocation continues, with the singer feeling like they’re losing themselves completely. The lines reinforce the sense of being overwhelmed, trapped by lies and deceit, and losing control of their own feelings and actions.

[Interlude]
This short section repeats the line “Got the best of me,” emphasizing the ongoing impact the other person has on the singer. It highlights the depth of emotional manipulation and the singer’s complete loss of control.

[Bridge]
In the bridge, the singer expresses a breaking point, realizing that the relationship could’ve been something meaningful, but now feels like a lost cause. They know they’re not the only one in the other person’s life and plead for it to stop. The singer is caught in a toxic cycle, but it’s clear they feel devastated and trapped, wanting the other person to leave, but still desiring their attention and control. The line “ruin me so only you can see me” suggests an unhealthy, possessive dynamic.

[Chorus]
The final chorus repeats, showing the continued emotional control and suffocating effect the other person has. The singer is still trapped in the same cycle, unable to break free despite the damage being done. The intensity of the emotions has reached a point where the singer feels completely consumed, with no way out.
