Rather Be Alone
Embracing Solitude: Healing from Love's Flames
Lyrics
It's 3am, I'm wide awake
Expressing wakefulness at 3 am, setting the scene for contemplation.
That's when my thoughts run to you
Thoughts naturally gravitating towards a specific person.
I tell myself that I'm ok
Self-reassurance of emotional well-being despite inner struggles.
But lies to turn into truth
Acknowledging that self-deception can transform into reality.
I'm still trying heal from your poison
Still recovering from the emotional impact of someone's harmful influence.
Led me through the flames, through the fire
Reference to enduring a challenging experience, possibly a tumultuous relationship.
But I'm not trying to fill, fill the void cause
Not seeking to fill the emotional void left by the person.
I won't let love burn me twice
Determined not to let love cause further emotional harm.
I'd rather be alone, nothing to fix
Prefer being alone rather than attempting to fix something.
Cause even broken bones don't hurt like this
Comparing emotional pain to physical pain, highlighting the severity of the former.
I'd rather love myself, my loneliness
Prioritizing self-love and solitude over dwelling on emotional scars.
Than count up all the scars, the scars you left
Choosing self-care over counting and dwelling on the emotional wounds inflicted.
I'd rather be alone
Reiterating the preference for solitude and self-love.
It's
Repeating the scene of contemplation at 3 am.
3am, I'm wide awake
Restating the time and the state of wakefulness.
And memories flood my mind
Recalling memories that flood the mind, likely connected to the person.
It's you again I can't escape
Expressing difficulty in escaping thoughts of a specific person.
Why can't I leave this behind? (no, no)
Questioning the challenge of moving on from the past.
I'm still paranoid by your voice cause
Still affected by the echoes of the person's voice.
You made me believe all your lies
Reflecting on the deceptive nature of the person's words and lies.
But I'm not trying fill, fill the void no
Not inclined to fill the emotional void left by the person.
I won't let love burn me twice
Reiterating the determination not to let love lead to further emotional pain.
I'd rather be alone
Reaffirming the preference for solitude.
Nothing to fix
Emphasizing the lack of desire to fix or mend things emotionally.
Cause even broken bones don't hurt like this
Continuing the metaphor of emotional pain compared to broken bones.
I'd rather love myself, my loneliness
Choosing self-love and embracing loneliness over dwelling on emotional scars.
Than count up all the scars, the scars you left
Prioritizing personal well-being over counting and dwelling on emotional wounds.
