What Did I Do
Heartache Unveiled: Cruelty in Love's Disarray
Lyrics
Such a beautiful beginning
Reflecting on a positive start or beginning.
I can't believe it was a lie
Expressing disbelief that something believed to be true was actually a lie.
Now the world is cold because I'm sick inside
Feeling a sense of emotional coldness in the world due to inner turmoil.
You've been gone for too long
Acknowledging the absence of someone for an extended period.
I don't think I can stay strong
Expressing emotional vulnerability and doubt in one's ability to endure.
What did I do to make you be so cruel to me?
Pondering the actions or behavior that led to cruelty from the other person.
What did I do to make you wanna leave me lonely?
Questioning the reasons for the desire of the other person to be alone.
You used to say to me, hey baby
Recalling a time when sweet endearments were exchanged.
Now you won't return my calls
Noticing a lack of response to attempts at communication.
I gave too much
Feeling that excessive giving has resulted in having nothing left.
Now I have nothing left at all
Experiencing a sense of loss and emptiness.
I'm reaching out in vain
Describing futile attempts to connect with the absent person.
There's no answer
Noticing the absence of a response, leading to a sense of hopelessness.
Just this horrible pain
Describing intense emotional pain.
What did I do to make you be so cruel to me?
Repeating the question about the cause of the other person's cruelty.
What did I do to make you wanna leave me lonely?
Repeating the question about the desire to be left alone.
I found your voice on a tape
Discovering a voice recording, possibly holding sentimental value.
The only letter that I saved
Highlighting the significance of the only saved letter from the person.
And a polaroid of you
Listing physical mementos, such as a polaroid and a drawing.
And a drawing that you made
Further emphasizing personal items left behind by the absent person.
You left it in my car
Recalling the unexpected discovery of a memento in the car.
I never knew I had it
Expressing surprise at not previously knowing about the discovered item.
What did I do to make you be so cruel to me?
Reiterating the plea for understanding the cause of cruelty.
What did I do to make you wanna leave me lonely?
Reiterating the plea for understanding the desire for solitude.
What did I do?
Persistently seeking an explanation for the situation.
Just tell me something, anything, because I don't understand
Expressing a desperate need for any information to comprehend the situation.
