Lying
Emotional Struggle Unveiled: Ben Hazlewood's 'Lying' Revelations
Lyrics
Speaking with no words hoping you can feel what I’ve said
Expressing thoughts without verbalizing, hoping for emotional understanding of my unspoken words.
That I’m lost losing my head
Feeling disoriented and overwhelmed, possibly in a state of confusion or distress.
Pulling on the truth, start unraveling what I meant
Attempting to reveal the truth and clarify my intentions, starting to untangle the complexity of my feelings.
I’ll collapse into regret
Anticipating a sense of deep remorse or guilt, fearing the consequences of my actions.
Are you close enough to feel me now
Asking if the listener is emotionally close enough to perceive my current state.
If I open up will you hear me out
Contemplating opening up emotionally and wondering if the listener will listen attentively.
I could tell you that I’m doing better but I’m lying
Admitting to falsehood about personal well-being, confessing to lying about my condition.
I can see I’m pushing you further
Acknowledging the negative impact of my actions on the relationship, realizing I'm pushing the listener away.
But I’m trying, still fighting
Expressing effort to improve despite challenges, continuing to fight for a better situation.
Just keep loving me like you do
Pleading for continued love and support from the listener despite my struggles.
If you keep loving me I’ll pull through
Believing that the listener's love can help me overcome difficulties and challenges.
Won’t be in your sight ‘cause I’m never steady for long
Expecting to be absent from the listener's view due to personal instability and lack of constancy.
When chaos becomes my home
Describing chaos as a familiar environment, suggesting a tendency to find comfort in disorder.
Facing down with lies ‘cause they’re easier to explain
Confronting situations with lies as they are easier to explain than the complex truth.
Honesty could never numb this pain
Acknowledging that honesty cannot alleviate the emotional pain I'm experiencing.
Are you close enough to feel me now
Repeating the question about emotional closeness, emphasizing the importance of being understood.
If I open up you’ve only got this one chance to hear me out
Stating that if I choose to open up, the listener has a limited opportunity to truly hear and understand me.
My only truth lies in the fear that I could lose you
Revealing that the only certainty in my life is the fear of losing the listener.
Oh, my only truth lies in the fear that I could lose you
Reiterating the fear of losing the listener as the only undeniable truth in my current situation.
