השיר הוא עם הרבה מטפורות והרבה כפלי משמעות, ובעיקרון די מתאר את המצב של ריאן ואמי, לאלה שהתקשו להבין...

shes talking to a boy, she's not gonna do everything he wants her to do, to make the relationship work. he's gotta give her a reason to love

"Head under water

and they tell me to breathe easy for a while

the breathing gets harder, even i know that"

meaning: you're no help. my heads underwater, and you tell me to breathe easy...thanks. you can't always take the easy road.

"You made room for me but it’s too soon to see

if I’m happy in your hands

I’m unusually hard to hold on to"

meaning: it started too soon

Blank stares at blank pages

no easy way to say this

you mean well, but you make this hard on me

meaning: how can I tell you? you mean well i know, but this isn't working for me.

"I'm not gonna write you a love song

'cause you asked for it

'cause you need one, you see

I'm not gonna write you a love song

'cause you tell me it's 

make or breaking this

if you’re on your way

I'm not gonna write you to stay"

meaning: I'm not gonna do what you want me to, just so you'll be with me. Even if he plans on leaving... its not worth it to fight. 

"If all you have is leaving I’m gonna need a better reason to write you a love song today"

meaning: he hasn't given her any reason to love him..or really fight for him.

"I learned the hard way 

that they all say things you want to hear

and my heavy heart sinks deep down under you

and your twisted words, your help just hurts

you are not what i thought you were

hello to high and dry"

meaning: guys tell you want you want to hear. and you get caught up in them telling you what they want you to be. insisting that they are "helping" you. turns out, she wised up. and now she's just kind of like..bummed out. she thought he was more than he is.

"Convinced me to please you

made me think that I need this too

I’m trying to let you hear me as I am"

meaning: for a while, she did all the bs..whatever he wanted...but now he needs to listen.
