Trying To Stay
Navigating Turbulent Tides: Andrea Shelly's Journey Through Relationship Struggles
Lyrics
Turning in circles
Feeling stuck in a repetitive cycle or routine.
Circles of trouble
Facing difficulties and challenges in life.
Always thinking that we're going down
Constantly fearing a negative outcome or failure.
I don't know you do I really
Expressing uncertainty about understanding the other person.
You don't even listen to me
Feeling unheard or disregarded by the other person.
All that matters to you is what you believe
Emphasizing the other person's strong belief system.
And that I agree
Highlighting the pressure to agree with the other person.
I'm tired of riding on these waves
Being exhausted from dealing with challenges.
Keeping everything at bay
Struggling to keep problems under control.
Tired of angry things you say
Dealing with hurtful and negative comments.
Turning my cheek and walk away
Choosing to avoid conflict by turning away.
I'm just tired
Expressing overall fatigue and weariness.
Tired of trying to stay
Being tired of making an effort to endure.
I'm staying for something
Remaining in a situation without clear conviction.
I don't even stand for
Staying for reasons that lack personal significance.
Every once in a while
Occasionally feeling a sense of disbelief.
You'd think we believe
Questioning shared beliefs and values.
Believe in the same thing
Desiring alignment in beliefs, as in the beginning.
Like in the beginning
Reflecting on the initial phase of the relationship.
After all this time you'd think I'd see
Realizing a lack of progress despite the passage of time.
I'm tired of riding on these waves
Continuing to endure challenges and difficulties.
Keeping everything at bay
Battling to keep negative influences at a distance.
Tired of angry things you say
Being worn out by hurtful comments.
Turning my cheek and walk away
Choosing to turn away from conflict.
I'm just tired
Expressing a general sense of exhaustion.
Tired of trying to stay
Weary from continuously trying to endure.
Tired of trying to stay
Reiterating the exhaustion from trying to stay.
I did what I could do but baby we lost too much
Regret over losing too much in the relationship.
And we can't go back again
Acceptance that returning to the past is impossible.
I did what I could do but maybe we want too much
Realizing unrealistic expectations led to disappointment.
And oh no I won't pretend
A refusal to pretend or fake emotions.
I won't pretend
Reiterating a commitment to honesty and authenticity.
I'm tired of riding on these waves
Continuing to endure challenges and difficulties.
Keeping everything at bay
Battling to keep negative influences at a distance.
Tired of angry things you say
Being worn out by hurtful comments.
Turning my cheek and walk away
Choosing to turn away from conflict.
I'm just tired
Expressing a general sense of exhaustion.
Tired of trying to stay
Weary from continuously trying to endure.
Tired of trying to stay
Reiterating the exhaustion from trying to stay.
Tired of trying to stay
Expressing the ongoing struggle to endure.
