Verse 1:
It always ends the same
When it was me and you
But every time I meet somebody new
It’s like déjà vu

Meaning: In this verse, the singer is expressing a sense of déjà vu when it comes to relationships. They’ve been through similar patterns with different people, and every new person they meet reminds them of their past relationship with someone else.

Verse 2:
I swear they sound the same
It’s like they know my skin
Every word they say sounds just like him
And it goes like this

Meaning: The singer feels that the new people they meet resemble their past love. They notice similarities in their words and actions, making it feel like a recurring pattern.

Chorus:
We’ll get in your car, and you’ll lean to kiss me
We’ll talk for hours and lie on the backseat
Uh-huh, uh-huh
Then one random night when everything changes
You won’t reply, and we’ll go back to strangers
Uh-huh, uh-huh

Meaning: In the chorus, the singer describes the familiar routine of getting close to someone, spending time together, and becoming intimate. However, eventually, something changes, and communication breaks down, leading them back to being strangers.

Verse 3:
It’s something that I hate
How everyone’s disposable
Now every time I date somebody new
I feel vulnerable
That it’ll never change
And it will just stay like this
Never-ending dating, breaking up
And it goes like this

Meaning: The singer expresses frustration with modern dating dynamics, where people seem disposable and relationships don’t last. They feel vulnerable and worry that this cycle of dating and breaking up will never change.

Verse 4:
When we spoke for months, did you ever mean it?
How can they say that this is love?
When it goes like this

Meaning: The singer questions whether the long conversations and connections they had with someone actually meant something. They doubt the authenticity of these relationships and wonder how they can be considered love when they consistently follow the same pattern.

Chorus (repeated):
We’ll get in your car, and you’ll lean to kiss me

Then one random night when everything changes
You won’t reply, and we’ll go back to strangers
Uh-huh, uh-huh

Meaning: The chorus repeats the description of the routine and the sudden change in relationships that leads to becoming strangers once again.
