"Navigate" is about the phenomenon of someone only wanting someone or something when it’s gone. (very much tied into the same time-frame as Don’t Tell Her) It’s about the magnetic force that makes toxic lovers so hard to separate, the push - pull dynamic, and internal agony of waiting for someone to stop being confused and “see the light”, see the good things. It’s also about the psychic feeling that the love interest has someone else hence the lyric “ something in the way of it” - something in the way of the connection, or in the way of the relationship having a proper start, or environment to flourish in. So navigating a space of trying to be carefree and understanding, but also being frustrated and exhausted, struggling with the power and force of the connection. It was about a guy who was always looking for greener grass while he had good things, and ultimately deciding to leave this unforgettable, powerful, magnetic and chaotic chemistry to just be a memory.
