I hate texas Lyrics Meaning

[Verse 1]
In this verse, the singer is finally preparing to go outside after being cooped up in their apartment for a long time. They’ve been so isolated that their only company has been the stars at night. The stars can see their inner struggles, as they try to motivate themselves to step out and hope they’ll be okay. They acknowledge their imperfections but are determined to take back control of their life. The line about someone losing their shine suggests the person they’re singing about isn’t as influential or important to them anymore. The singer admits to lying to themselves to cope, but it’s a necessary step to say goodbye and move on.

[Pre-Chorus]

[Chorus]
The chorus expresses the singer’s frustration and determination to avoid their ex. They swear that if they run into them, it would be unbearable, and their ex has no idea how much they’ve affected them. Moving to a different state is a way to escape the memories that ruined New York for them. They are extremely cautious, hoping to avoid running into their ex in Austin. Despite disliking Texas, they find solace in its vastness, which provides more space to get away from their past. This part highlights their desperate need to distance themselves from their ex to heal.

[Verse 2]
In this verse, the singer is fed up with their ex, who has angered them for the last time. It’s frustrating that their ex wouldn’t notice the impact they’ve had, even if they tried. Reflecting on their relationship, the singer realizes they missed the warning signs. The reference to HGTV implies that they feel like a project needing significant repair. They’re working hard to forget their ex’s face and want to become someone their ex can’t avoid thinking about. By showing a brave face, they want their ex to know that their pain has driven them to succeed and end up in a better place.

[Pre-Chorus]
In this repetition of the pre-chorus, the singer reaffirms their decision to disconnect from their online life and their ex’s distractions. They’re eager for change and a new beginning, willing to move south for a fresh start.

[Chorus]
