the better part
Discovering Selfless Strength: 'the better part' by Always Tired Unveiled
Lyrics
You didn't have to stay
You had the choice to leave.
But you did it anyways
Despite the option to go, you chose to stay.
And now I can see
Now, I understand the situation better.
It was never up to me
The decision wasn't within my control.
You are selfish but you are strong
Acknowledging that you possess selfish qualities but also strength.
And you were right all along
Your convictions were correct from the beginning.
And now I can see
Realizing my insignificance in the relationship.
That I was nothing
I wasn't noteworthy or exceptional.
To write home about
I lacked qualities that make one remarkable.
Set in my ways
Firmly set in my habits and behavior.
But you still stayed
Despite this, you chose to remain with me.
And I am no one without
Without you, I am nobody.
The better part
Referring to the significant and positive aspect you bring to my life.
That you bring to me
Expressing gratitude for the positive impact you have on me.
You didn't have to stay
Reiterating that your choice to stay was not obligatory.
But you did it anyways
Emphasizing that your decision was voluntary.
And now I can see
Confirming that the outcome was beyond my control.
It was never up to me
Repeating the idea that the decision wasn't mine to make.
You are selfish but you are strong
Acknowledging your self-centered traits and resilience.
And you were right all along
Acknowledging the accuracy of your initial judgments.
And now I can see
Realizing my lack of significance in the grand scheme.
That I was nothing
Affirming my lack of exceptional qualities.
to write home about
Similar to line 9, reiterating my lack of noteworthy traits.
Set in my ways
Reiterating my resistance to change.
But you still stayed
Despite this, you chose to stick with me.
And I am no one without
Without you, I am devoid of identity.
The better part
Reiterating the importance of the positive influence you bring.
That you bring to me
Expressing gratitude for the valuable contribution you make to my life.
And now I can see
Reaffirming the realization of your significant role.
You are the better part of me
Acknowledging that you constitute the better part of me.
And now I can see
Reiterating the acknowledgment of your positive influence.
You are the better part of me
Reaffirming that you are the superior and more valuable part of my being.
