Unveiling Betrayal: Decoding Beth Hardaker's 'Last Message'
Lyrics
When were you gonna tell me
Expressing frustration or disappointment about not being informed earlier.
That you knew
Acknowledging that the person was aware of something.
That I wasn't special
Feeling not special or important to the person being addressed.
I wasn't the one for you
Realizing that the speaker was not the chosen one for the person.
I guess it was all just
Suggesting that everything was a facade or pretense.
All just for show
Reiterating that it was all a show or act.
So that you could get me
Implying a manipulative intention to gain control over the speaker.
Under your complete control
Highlighting the desire for complete control over the speaker.
And you didn't like it
Indicating dissatisfaction when the speaker caught on to the manipulation.
When I caught on
Recalling a specific incident when the speaker ignored the person.
Cos the night that I ignored you
Resulting in the person deciding to move on from the speaker.
You decided to move on
Reflecting on the speaker's resilience in the face of deception.
But now the more that you lie
Observing an increase in lies from the person being addressed.
And the more that you ignore my eyes
Pointing out the person's avoidance of eye contact.
The more I'm fine
Expressing emotional resilience despite the lies and deception.
So tell me all about her
Asking for information about the new person in the person's life.
Is it true
Seeking confirmation about the existence of someone special.
That you found your someone special
Questioning whether the person also controls the new individual.
Or do you control her too
Noting physical attributes of the new person, like blue eyes.
I see why you might like her
Speculating on the reasons for the person's attraction to the new individual.
Eyes a pretty shade of blue
Describing the attractive features of the new person's eyes.
Someone who's more your type
Questioning if the new person is more compatible with the individual.
Or did you just want something new
Considering the possibility of the person seeking something new.
And I could have helped it
Expressing regret for not heeding warnings about the person.
My god I was warned
Acknowledging an awareness of potential harm from the person.
But something told me different
Indicating a gut feeling that differed from warnings.
Your hurt it something to be learned
Recognizing that the person's hurt is a lesson to be learned.
And it's not the games, that I hate
Clarifying that it's not the games but the person's actions that are disliked.
Or the words that you say
Emphasizing that hurtful words don't affect the speaker negatively.
That make me fine
Reiterating emotional resilience in the face of negativity.
So I'll tell you about it
Introducing a narrative about another person, a boy.
A boy who doesn't have a clue
Describing the boy as clueless about a situation.
He's even tried to hide it
Noting the boy's attempt to hide something.
But his colours run right through
Indicating that the boy's true colors are visible.
And sometimes I miss you
Admitting occasional feelings of missing the person despite negativity.
Even after all the shit you've spread
Recognizing the difficulty in letting go of the past.
But I can confine it
Asserting the ability to contain or control emotions related to the person.
Cos all you really are is a dickhead
Summarizing the person as someone undesirable or unpleasant.
So you can talk and you can lie
Acknowledging the person's ability to deceive and lie.
You can try and be another guy
Highlighting the person's attempt to be someone else.
But I'm fine
Reiterating emotional resilience and well-being despite the person's actions.
