Times come when relationships go through turbulence of one form or another. Such are the flames which test the strength of our commitment to each other. This is the case in this song; the two lovers have just come out of a serious disagreement "so bruised."
From it, the girl has come up with a lot of new rules; adjustments she wants the two of them to make, which are bound to turn the tables and rearrange their whole life. Earlier on she had said she was comfortable with the man calling the shots; now, with the changes she's proposing, her actions beg the question: was she really honest with herself when she settled for the way things have been?
Among them, she wants them to stay low key, especially on social media, yet she wasn't as loud as the guy was. She also doesn't want him to tell her what to do, but had earlier said she wanted him to guide her, given he's older and has a lot more experience with relationships. She is also not comfortable with them going for hang outs at the guy's brother's place, where she had been comfortable before. Beside all that, she requires much more attention, raising issues with the guy being online and not talking with her, while he's there trying to find a job, which is something she had been pushing to do. Now she's left him "fears for the trust" he had before. What are her intentions? Is she putting one leg out? Or is she just taking it slow?
