I should've known

The speaker looks back on a painful relationship and repeatedly blames themself for not seeing its ending coming. They admit that they ignored warnings and became emotionally involved anyway. The mood combines regret and hurt with a sense of survival: despite the damage, the speaker is “still standing here.” Forgiveness remains out of reach, though the repeated “yet” leaves open the possibility that this may change.

“Heart gone deaf” suggests that strong feelings made the speaker unable or unwilling to listen to warnings. “Dove right in” presents the relationship as a risky plunge taken without enough thought. The image of being left with a “heart in debt” implies an emotional cost that has not been repaid or resolved; it is not a literal debt.

The lyrics hold two ideas together: the speaker feels betrayed by the other person, but also recognizes their own role in overlooking signs and repeating a familiar mistake. “Maybe you was right” hints at an argument or a point the speaker now partly accepts, without explaining what it was. The song does not say whether the relationship is fully over or whether reconciliation is possible. Its focus is the speaker’s unresolved mix of blame, longing, and self-reproach.
