Lyrics
Sorry if I've been quiet lately
Apology for recent silence and introspection
I've been lost up in my thoughts
Acknowledgment of being deeply lost in thoughts
And I'm not sure whether I should share them or not
Uncertainty about sharing inner thoughts
Sorry if I get defensive
Apology for becoming defensive when questioned
When you ask what's on my mind
Defensiveness when asked about thoughts
But that question makes me run and hide
Feeling of evasion and hiding from the question
'Cause I can't tell you
Expressing difficulty in sharing certain thoughts
The things that keep me up at night
Unrevealed thoughts causing sleeplessness
So I'll just smile until you think that I'm alright
Choosing to appear fine with a smile
'Cause I'm a people pleaser through and through
Self-identification as a people pleaser
I don't wanna hurt you
Avoiding causing harm intentionally
'Cause it's just not the right thing to do
Moral restraint from hurting others
Maybe I don't always tell the truth
Admission of occasional dishonesty
But you know I would never leave you
Commitment to not abandoning others
'Cause I'm a people pleaser through and through
Reiteration of being a people pleaser
Through and through
Emphasizing the persistent nature of being a people pleaser
Through and through
Repetition for emphasis
Choosin' my words like they're made of concrete
Choosing words carefully, as if they are permanent
Thinking that they're permanent
Mistaken belief in the permanence of words
I guess that's to my detriment
Recognizing the potential negative consequences
Call me a manipulator
Self-labeling as a manipulator
But I'm standin' here on the detonator
Acceptance of a potentially explosive situation
'Cause honesty has honestly
Honesty not proving beneficial in the past
Never quite worked out for me
Reiteration of being a people pleaser
So I'm a people pleaser through and through
Restating the commitment to pleasing others
I don't wanna hurt you
Avoidance of intentional harm reiterated
'Cause it's just not the right thing to do
Moral stance against causing pain
Maybe I don't always tell the truth
Admission of occasional lack of truthfulness
But you know I would never leave you
Pledge to remain loyal despite shortcomings
'Cause I'm a people pleaser through and through
Reiteration of being a people pleaser
Through and through
Emphasizing the persistent nature of being a people pleaser
Through and through
Repetition for emphasis
Maybe you should find somebody new
Suggesting finding someone new due to struggles
'Cause you know I would never leave you
Reassurance of not abandoning despite difficulties
I'm a people pleaser through and through
Final reiteration of being a people pleaser
