Junipers in Bloom: Finding Closure Amidst Betrayal
Lyrics
I feel the pressure building and it's weighing on my mind
The speaker senses increasing pressure that is mentally burdensome.
Are there deluded reasons behind each and every lie?
Questioning if there are misguided motivations behind every lie.
I can't escape the feeling now that there's more to this somehow
A feeling that there is a deeper layer to the situation.
When every time we stand we fall I can't see reason anymore
Despite efforts, there's a repeated pattern of failure and a loss of understanding.
So how did we get to this again? Giving up and giving in
Reflecting on a cycle of giving up and surrendering.
We're throwing our hands up in surrender
Expressing frustration and resignation, raising hands in surrender.
Facing away to save face. The sweet embrace of a bitter taste
Choosing to ignore reality to save face, with bitter consequences.
Giving up on our morals to stay together. I've had enough of it
Abandoning moral principles to maintain a relationship, and the speaker has reached a breaking point.
So give me a break. Don't frame this like you're helping me
Pleading for a break from a misleading and unhelpful framing.
when this is all about your ego in the end
Accusing someone of selfish motives disguised as assistance.
And the junipers are blooming like the did when you left me
Reference to junipers blooming symbolizing a past significant event.
I'm doing better now. How's this for closure?
Claiming personal improvement after a challenging experience, seeking closure.
Used to think you're a fallen angel, here to help and make me stable
Initial admiration turned into realization of harm caused by the person.
All you've done is make me unable to help myself
Acknowledging the negative impact on the speaker's self-reliance.
You turn the screw when it best suits you, make me wonder if I can pull through
Highlighting manipulation and doubts about overcoming difficulties.
But I guess that all I can do is just move on
Acceptance that moving on is the only option.
Spinning the thoughts around my head, forever cursed by what you said
Continued mental turmoil caused by hurtful words.
How could you do that
Expressing disbelief and shock at someone's actions.
Looking to find some peace of mind, you kill my days and waste my time
Searching for peace of mind while feeling time is wasted.
But in the end you're gonna be just fine
Despite struggles, predicting eventual well-being for the other person.
Run away, get away
Desire to escape and find mental relief.
Time to give my mind some space, better nights and better days
Choosing to distance oneself for better mental health.
(Run away, get away)
Reiterating the theme of escaping for mental well-being.
A different road, a brighter place, better nights, better days
Optimism about a different, brighter future.
(Run away, get away)
Reaffirming the decision to seek a better life away from negativity.
So give me a break. Don't frame this like you're helping me
Repeated plea for a fair perspective, emphasizing the other person's ego.
when this is all about your ego in the end
Reiteration that the situation is primarily about the other person's self-interest.
And the junipers are blooming like the did when you left me
Recalling junipers blooming, indicating a significant past moment and reaffirming personal growth.
I'm doing better now. How's this for closure?
Repeating personal improvement and seeking closure.
How's this for closure?
Reiterating the desire for closure, potentially indicating the end of a chapter.
