Verse 1

Girl I'm around you but you don't care
Feeling so awful, missing your hair
La-la, la-la-la, la-la-la-la-la
I'ma wake up in a miserable mood
I hate her eyes and attitude
I heard her talking 'bout me
She said she's tired of me
I barely ever go to bed
I'm so afraid of sleep, oh
La-la, la-la-la-la-la
Scared to dream about her again
Last summer I was a mess, you know,

In this verse, the singer starts off by expressing his frustration about being around someone who doesn’t reciprocate his feelings. He misses her physical presence, which adds a layer of intimacy to his sadness. The repeated "la-la" gives a sense of a light-hearted melody, contrasting with the darker themes of his thoughts. He reveals how little sleep he gets, hinting at anxiety and a fear of facing his dreams, especially if they involve her. The mention of being a “mess” last summer suggests a history of emotional struggles that have not improved.

Chorus

Girl I'm around you but you don't care
Feeling so awful, missing your hair
La-la, la-la-la, la-la-la-la-la
I'ma wake up in a miserable mood
I hate her eyes and attitude
I heard her talking 'bout me
She said she's tired of me
I barely ever go to bed
I'm so afraid of sleep, oh
La-la, la-la-la-la-la
Scared to dream about her again

The chorus repeats the main sentiments from the verse, emphasizing the singer's feelings of neglect and sadness. The repetition drives home how stuck he feels in this emotional state. He’s caught in a cycle of longing and disappointment, and the “miserable mood” he describes suggests that he can’t escape these thoughts. The fear of dreaming about her again shows how deeply affected he is by their past and how it haunts him even in his sleep.

Verse 2

Last summer I was a mess, you know
I never thought you would stoop so low
But that's how it go
Wake up in the morning with coke still in my nose
I'm wasting my life to the blow
Still standing here getting broke by the hoe

This verse takes a darker turn as he reflects on a time when he was struggling. The phrase “stoop so low” implies betrayal, perhaps suggesting that he feels let down by her actions. The imagery of waking up with “coke still in my nose” starkly reveals his attempts to cope with pain through substance use. It paints a vivid picture of his chaotic lifestyle, showing that he feels trapped and is wasting his life away. The term “broke by the hoe” is a harsh way to express his feelings of being used or discarded, adding to the emotional weight of the song.

Chorus

Girl I'm around you but you don't care
Feeling so awful, missing your hair
La-la, la-la-la, la-la-la-la-la

I hate her eyes and attitude
I heard her talking 'bout me
She said she's tired of me
I barely ever go to bed
I'm so afraid of sleep, oh
La-la, la-la-la-la-la
Scared to dream about her again

The chorus returns, reinforcing his feelings of despair and longing. The repetition serves to highlight how stuck he feels in this emotional loop. Each line resonates with the pain of feeling unloved and unwanted. His insistence on being “afraid of sleep” shows the depth of his anxiety and unwillingness to confront his feelings, even in his subconscious.
