Back to Back Lyrics

My mind has left the building
and I shouldn't be speaking,
but now I can so I will
and I'll tell you the truth
I said these terrible things
that she's done to me
tend to creep into my dreams
and it's impossible to sleep

To my left is a...

    In my eyes, this song is kind of showing that he’s in an abusive relationship. Not physically abusive, but mentally this girl is not good for him. He acknowledges that it’s bad, but instead of leaving like he knows he should, his subconscious knows he’d just go back to the girl. Often in any sort of abusive relationship, people will make the best of their situation or make excuses for the other person’s actions, especially if they love them or cannot get out of the situation. Either from being used to it or because of the mindset I previously mentioned, is what leads him to come up with reasons to stay, trying to convince himself he likes it, or that it doesn’t bother him. Not knowing what to do and/or being unable to do what he knows he should, he’s stuck in this circle, going “back to” this girl. He knows he can’t leave because he’ll go right back, so he is trying to fall “back to back to back” in love with her. The line “What else can I do? I’ve got nothing left to lose.” again shows how helpless he feels in this situation and how he feels stuck in this circle with her.

    I think the guy fell in love with a 'Tsun dere' who is constatntly beating him up!
    In case you dob't know what a tsundere is here's a from the urban dictionary definition: Therefore, "Tsundere" is a female character who is usually cold, but she becomes spoony on her lover. Or, she is cold to the main character at first, but she becomes lovestruck later.

    It sounds like a drug.

    He's in love with a girl, who'd messing him up. He couldn't bring himself to leave her because he knows he'd only go back to her anyway. He can't get her out of his head but he knows that she'ss hurting him. In a way he's gotten used to it and convinces himself he likes it.
