Confession
Unveiling Heartbreak: Anna Makula's 'Confession' Echoes Love's Pain
Lyrics
It hurts a lot more than I care to say
Expressing emotional pain that goes beyond what is communicated
But oh I hope you hear me
Expressing a desire for the listener to understand and acknowledge the pain
It's been a year or two since I last saw you
Indicating a significant amount of time since the last encounter
And I hope you miss me
Expressing a hope that the absence is felt and missed by the listener
And I know
Acknowledging a current awareness or realization
I'm not a part of you anymore
Stating the singer's exclusion from the other person's life
And I know
Acknowledging a loss of deserving the listener's love
I don't deserve the love that you hold anymore
Expressing a recognition of not being worthy of the love once held
And I hoped we would be closer
Expressing a desire for a closer relationship
And I knew this would be different
Acknowledging an expectation of a different outcome
I didn't see this one coming
Expressing surprise or realization about an unforeseen situation
That I would leave you so frightened
Acknowledging causing fear or distress in the listener
Closer
Repeating the desire for closeness
Different
Repeating the expectation of a different situation
Coming
Repeating the surprise or realization about an unforeseen situation
Frightened
Repeating the acknowledgment of causing fear or distress
Letting you know might have been a mistake
Suggesting that informing the listener might have been a mistake
I'd take it back
Expressing a willingness to take back the revelation
If ever you could look me in the eye again
Expressing regret and a desire for eye contact
Letting you in was the biggest mistake
Acknowledging a significant mistake in letting the listener into the singer's life
And I know now
Expressing a current understanding or realization
And I know now
Repeating the acknowledgment of current understanding or realization
(We could have been closer)
Expressing a lament for a missed opportunity for closeness
And I hoped we would be closer
Reiterating a desire for a closer relationship
And I knew this would be different
Reiterating the expectation of a different outcome
I didn't see this one coming
Repeating the surprise or realization about an unforeseen situation
That I would leave you so frightened
Repeating the acknowledgment of causing fear or distress
Closer
Repeating the desire for closeness
Different
Repeating the expectation of a different situation
Coming
Repeating the surprise or realization about an unforeseen situation
Frightened
Repeating the acknowledgment of causing fear or distress
