I figured out what can move me
It's trains and hugs, planes and sushi
And I'm sorry, but Boris, I'm leaving
I'm not good for anyone here
He found out what can move him when she moved him. Think about this logically, they were on a date and ended up watching the sunset over the water. They probably had sushi and hugged. A plane probably flew across the sky as they watched. He took the train home. All of it reminds him of that day. And he is leaving London because he is harmful to people he loves.
We reached the end of a decade
Greenwich morphs to an arcade
Suffolk turns into a highway
Up to Hamlet's a tax break
New Islington, a headache
And Richmond's still shit
Notice how he mentioned Greenwich first, where the murder happened. Then he's listing reasons that he is leaving but really.. they all sound like made up excuses, like when someone asks why you cant do something. He is leaving because of the murder, those are all just excuses.
I can't believe that I'm leaving
I can't believe that I'm leaving
I don't think I want to leave you
I don't think I want to leave you here alone
He doesnt want to leave but the guilt is too much. He doesnt want to leave her behind though, rotting at the bottom of the Thames.
But they'll knock down the pubs before helping you
And burn down your towers before helping you
They'll charge for your healthcare before helping you
They'll make you jump under trains before helping you
This is where I think Kai comes in. The editor that knows what happened. Wilbur was panicking, He called whoever came up first in his contacts. According to a tweet from October, Wilbur had been talking to Kai. That contact could have been Kai. But Kai was unable to help or just refused to help.
And even though I'm finished, I'm not quite done with it
No matter how far I run south, I'm always there
My lovers, my colleagues, my best friends and enemies
I don't think I want to leave you
Even though he thinks he is over it, hes not. No matter how far he runs, the guilt is always there. The girl, his friends, and his enemy, Kai. He stil doesnt want to leave her and move on.
