The singer starts by talking about how life feels repetitive and boring now, like every day is the same. They feel like they are just going through the motions without excitement, and they wonder if the other person feels the same way. Even though there isn’t much to complain about, the singer misses the chaos and unpredictability of the past, realizing that comfort sometimes comes at the cost of adventure.

They remember the fun times they had when everything felt new and full of possibilities. Back then, they could create their own story and do whatever they wanted without worrying about consequences.
