A pair of high heels

They ain′t gonna say it but you bet your ass I will
Yeah buddy she's a buzzkill

The relationship is fragile and unstable, yet they keep trying to hold together, but it never seems fully secure like “loose strings.”

The lyrics talk about moments of tension, like fights fueled by alcohol, mixed with tender reflections on the little things that keep one partner attached to the other.

So I staggered home alone, still thinking about you

With these loose strings

All I ever do
Is make you blue baby blue
Blue baby blue
Blue baby blue
Blue baby blue
