Where I was raised there was no streetlights
Just pitch black and passing headlights
And where we met, there must have been dark signs
Omens in your skies
Most days, you reach for safety
Remain calm, forget that you know me
And when we met, I could see dark signs
Alarm bells in your eyes
And I miss the man I was (I won't break and bend to my basic need)
The moment we left off (to be loved and close to somebody)
(I won't break and bend to my basic need)
(To be loved and close to somebody)
And I hate who I have become (I won't break and bend to my basic need)
(To be loved and close to somebody) Every time I wake up
(I won't break and bend to my basic need)
(To be loved and close to somebody)
And if you saw the marks on my dashboard
The new scars that I didn't ask for
And would you call asking for answers?
Tear my arms off
And most days, you reach for safety
Remain calm, forget that you know me, no-oh
When we met, I could see dark signs
Alarm bells in your eyes
And I miss the man I was (I won't break and bend to my basic need)
The moment we left off (to be loved and close to somebody)
(I won't break and bend to my basic need)
(To be loved and close to somebody)
And I hate who I have become (I won't break and bend to my basic need)
(To be loved and close to somebody) Every time I wake up
(I won't break and bend to my basic need)
(To be loved and close to somebody)
And I miss the man I was
The moment we left off
And I hate who I have become
Every time I wake up
(I won't break and bend to my basic need)
(To be loved and close to somebody)
(I won't break and bend to my basic need) When we met, I could see dark signs
(To be loved and close to somebody) oh-oh
(I won't break and bend to my basic need) When we met, I could see dark signs
(To be loved and close to somebody) oh-oh
(I won't break and bend to my basic need) When we met, I could see dark signs
(To be loved and close to somebody) oh-oh
(I won't break and bend to my basic need) When we met, I could see dark signs
(To be loved and close to somebody) oh-oh
(I won't break and bend to my basic need) When we met, I could see dark signs
(To be loved and close to somebody) oh-oh
Just pitch black and passing headlights
And where we met, there must have been dark signs
Omens in your skies
Most days, you reach for safety
Remain calm, forget that you know me
And when we met, I could see dark signs
Alarm bells in your eyes
And I miss the man I was (I won't break and bend to my basic need)
The moment we left off (to be loved and close to somebody)
(I won't break and bend to my basic need)
(To be loved and close to somebody)
And I hate who I have become (I won't break and bend to my basic need)
(To be loved and close to somebody) Every time I wake up
(I won't break and bend to my basic need)
(To be loved and close to somebody)
And if you saw the marks on my dashboard
The new scars that I didn't ask for
And would you call asking for answers?
Tear my arms off
And most days, you reach for safety
Remain calm, forget that you know me, no-oh
When we met, I could see dark signs
Alarm bells in your eyes
And I miss the man I was (I won't break and bend to my basic need)
The moment we left off (to be loved and close to somebody)
(I won't break and bend to my basic need)
(To be loved and close to somebody)
And I hate who I have become (I won't break and bend to my basic need)
(To be loved and close to somebody) Every time I wake up
(I won't break and bend to my basic need)
(To be loved and close to somebody)
And I miss the man I was
The moment we left off
And I hate who I have become
Every time I wake up
(I won't break and bend to my basic need)
(To be loved and close to somebody)
(I won't break and bend to my basic need) When we met, I could see dark signs

This song seems to be written from the perspective of someone who was neglectful or at least in some way hurtful in a relationship. It appears as though the narrator is reflecting upon mistakes previously made. Perhaps including how their partner’s lack of knowledge towards this may have been predetermined by ‘dark signs’.
The lyrics are described with the following – “Arrogant and bitterly alone. Acknowledging that you have become a poisonous influence in the lives of others.”
