Athena
Unrequited Echoes: Athena's Tale of Love and Loss
Lyrics
I was part of your destiny and you didn't fight it
I believed I was meant to be a part of your life, and you didn't resist that fate.
I guess now I know that sometimes love is unrequited
Now I understand that love can sometimes be unreciprocated.
That doesn't mean you didn't love me to begin with
This doesn't imply you never loved me initially.
But you sure as hell didn't the night that we ended
But on the night we ended, it seemed like you didn't love me at all.
Oh, I love you so
Expressing deep affection, despite the challenges.
Please don't go, I'm home
Pleading for you to stay because this is where I belong.
Sometimes all I want from you is a half-assed apology
Desiring a minimal effort apology from you.
Saying that you never ever really even wanted me
Wanting you to admit you never truly wanted me, even if it's not entirely true.
We know that's not the truth coming from your lips
Acknowledging that your words might not reflect your true feelings.
But I completely disappeared and you never fucking noticed
I vanished from your life, and you never noticed my absence.
Oh, I love you so
Reiterating deep love despite the pain.
Please don't go, I'm home
Repeating the plea for you to stay because I consider this place home.
And momma always told me to watch out for the bad guys
Recalling advice from mom about avoiding harmful individuals.
But if I'm being honest I don't know what they look like
Admitting uncertainty about recognizing those who might cause harm.
You caught me by surprise on that dreadful summer night
Caught off guard by you on a fateful summer night.
And now I know
Reflecting on the experience and gaining understanding.
Oh, I love you so
Despite everything, expressing profound love.
Pretty please don't go
Pleading once more for you to stay, emphasizing the sense of home.
I'm home
Reiterating the plea for you not to leave because this is where I belong.
And oh, I love you so
Restating deep affection and attachment.
Pretty please don't go
Repeating the plea for you to stay, underlining the importance of being home.
I'm really home
Affirming the sense of being truly home and not wanting you to leave.
