The lyrics evoke nostalgia, reminiscing about carefree moments shared under the sun, highlighting a sense of unity and innocence in past relationships.
A contrast is drawn between safety in avoidance and the desire for connection, suggesting that true emotional engagement comes with vulnerability.
The metaphor of a "train wreck" illustrates the chaos and pain often associated with love, indicating deep emotional turmoil when left alone.
The imagery of being surrounded by echoes signifies how memories linger and affect present feelings, emphasizing the pervasive nature of lost love.
The repeated plea for "something" reflects a yearning for meaningful connection amidst feelings of bruising and brokenness, underscoring the complexity of emotional experiences.

Lyrics:
Remember all the late nights
And when you met my mom
The silly little jokes and
The kiss beneath the sun
Yeah back when we were one
And everybody saw it
But you chose to look away
You’re safer when you’re running
And I will always stay
In case you run my way
And most days I’m okay
But then you leave me like a trainwreck
Darling I
Would have loved you in slow motion
Running deeper than the ocean
Give me something, only something
So I’m not haunted by the echoes of you
Leave me bruised and leave me broken
It don’t matter where it’s going
Give me something, only something
Oh I’m still haunted by the echoes of you
I see you in the sunset
I smell you in the air
The windowshops in my street
Are full of clothes you wear
Oh you are everywhere
And most days I’m okay
But then you leave me like a trainwreck
Darling I
Would have loved you in slow motion
Running deeper than the ocean
Give me something, only something
So I’m not haunted by the echoes of you
Leave me bruised and leave me broken
It don’t matter where it’s going
Give me something, only something
Oh I’m still haunted by the echoes of you
The echoes of you, uh, uh
The echoes of you, uh, uh
The echoes of you, uh, uh
The echoes of you, uh, uh
Darling I
Would have loved you in slow motion
Running deeper than the ocean
Give me something, only something
So I’m not haunted by the echoes of you
Leave me bruised and leave me broken
It don’t matter where it’s going
Give me something, only something
Oh I’m still haunted by the echoes of you
