What's the meaning of expression "only got so long''
What do these phrases mean? (from the lyrics of Troye Sivan Bloom)
Maybe our time has come
Maybe we're overgrown
Even the sweetest plum
Has only got so long
baby, we're barely holding on
even the sweetest plum
has only got so long

This means "nothing lasts forever" or "time is running out".
In this song, I took it to mean that two lovers are coming to an end (breaking up). The sweetest plum has only got so long means that even though the relationship is good, it is coming to an end.
