Lyrics
It's not an accusation, I freeze when I see you and I can still feel
Expressing a reaction, not an accusation; feeling a freezing sensation upon seeing the person, recalling their breath.
You breath
Focusing on the impact of the person's presence, emphasizing the breath as a tangible element.
You say I spread lies for attention as you play victim
Addressing accusations of spreading lies for attention, with the other person playing the victim; a conflict of perspectives.
Their minds set on who to believe
Noting the influence of others' opinions on who to believe in the conflict.
I can't sit here pitied and self absorbed
Rejecting a pitied and self-absorbed stance.
But I can't scrub this scent clean
Acknowledging an enduring mark or scent that cannot be easily removed.
I've tried before adn I'm sure I can't explain in words
Expressing difficulty in explaining the internal struggles through words.
Or thoughts the way I've kicked and fought
Describing the intense internal conflict, physically and mentally.
And fought myself to be sane to come clean and
Fighting against oneself to achieve sanity and confess past actions.
Begin at last again
Expressing a commitment to start anew after coming clean.
Sure I could give up and those I praise
Contemplating giving up, acknowledging potential indifference from those admired.
Wouldn't give a fuck
Highlighting potential lack of concern from praised individuals.
So much for friends, so much for feelings now
Reflecting on the betrayal of friendship and emotions.
Why don't you spit in my face
Challenging the other person to express disdain openly.
For bringing shame to your name
Acknowledging the brought shame to the other person's name.
You and I know for sure
Asserting a shared understanding between the speaker and the other person.
Behind closed doors
Describing a conflict that occurred privately, behind closed doors.
It was you against me
Asserting a previous opposition between the speaker and the other person.
I won't sit here blamed and ignored
Refusing to be blamed and ignored.
As I rinse the stains clean without support
Cleaning stains without support, implying a challenging process.
And I'm sure I can't explain in words or thought
[Repetition] Difficulty in expressing lessons learned.
The lessons I was taught
Reflecting on the unspoken lessons experienced.
As I fought while you used force for gain
Highlighting a personal struggle against force used by the other person.
And I was skin deep in shame
Being immersed in shame, possibly due to external actions.
Now I won't let up
Expressing determination not to relent or give up.
I'll tread the heals of your every step
Following the other person closely, possibly metaphorically.
So much for friends, so much for feelings now
[Repetition] Betrayal of friendship and emotions.
Why don't you spit in my face
Challenging the other person to openly express disdain again.
For bringing shame to your name
[Repetition] Acknowledging shame brought to the other person's name.
You and I know for sure
[Repetition] Shared understanding behind closed doors.
Behind closed doors
[Repetition] Previous opposition behind closed doors.
It was you against me
[Repetition]
