Cause my heart responds to every reflection
Connecting emotional responses to self-reflection and external opinions.

Declaring an aversion to dishonesty and a preference for truth.

Reflecting on personal challenges and resilience.
When I was younger saw everything as magical
Recalling a time of innocence and wonder during youth.
Then he sat me down and told me I was beautiful
Receiving a compliment about beauty and the impact of such words.
Told me love can never be that sinful
Advising against seeing love as inherently sinful.
Took advantage of how I was raised too dutiful
Acknowledging vulnerability due to a dutiful upbringing.

Transitioning to a quote or statement from someone.
Girl you'll be a woman you gotta know how to play

Then I got older saw everything as tragical
Transitioning to a perspective of seeing life as tragic.
Everybody lying faking all of their chronicles

Tried drinking down the pain and cutting emptiness that mapped me
Using unhealthy coping mechanisms to deal with pain and emptiness.
Slowly going insane thinking they might strap me
Fearing a descent into insanity and potential restraint.

Questioning the speaker's choices in a critical manner.

Why you allowed yourself to be controlled
Questioning the speaker's perceived lack of control.
Why you let yourself be pushed into a victim role
Challenging the acceptance of a victim role.
Maybe cause i was confused and alone
Offering a possible explanation for past actions.
Maybe cause I was just like what well 8 years old
Reflecting on a state of confusion and vulnerability at a young age.
At least for the first time the first time
Emphasizing the significance of a particular experience in childhood.
