Lyrics

Have faith in us

Expressing the need for trust or belief in a relationship.

I know you wanted more

Acknowledging the desire for more from the relationship.

Is faith enough?

Raising doubt about whether faith alone is sufficient in the relationship.


Don't say too much

Advising not to communicate excessively, possibly due to past experiences.

I've heard it all before

Indicating familiarity with previous words or promises made.

Say what you must

Encouraging open expression despite reservations.


Life's so cold and so sweet

Contrasting the harshness and sweetness of life.

Still you're selling me sympathy

Feeling emotionally manipulated or deceived.

Bought your story but now I see

Having believed a narrative but now realizing its insincerity.

All you ever wanted was a piece of me

Realizing the other person's true motive was to take advantage.

A fool to follow, a lie to lead

Being misled by someone unworthy of trust.

Words I swallow down sicken me

Expressing discomfort or disgust with swallowed words.

You're not giving me what I need

Feeling unfulfilled or neglected in the relationship.

'Cause all you ever wanted was a piece of me

Reiterating the realization that the other person sought personal gain.


I'm waking up

Waking up to a new understanding or perspective.

Yet still you offer more

Despite awakening, the other person continues to offer more false assurances.

It's not enough

Recognizing that what is being offered is insufficient.


My faith is gone

Losing faith in the relationship.

With all you've said and done

Acknowledging the negative impact of the other person's words and actions.

I know too much

Feeling burdened by excessive knowledge about the other person.


Life's so cold and so sweet

Repeating the contrast between life's harshness and sweetness.

Still you're selling me sympathy

Continuing to receive insincere sympathy from the other person.

Bought your story but now I see

Confirming the realization that the other person's story was false.

All you ever wanted was a piece of me

Understanding that the other person sought to exploit.

A fool to follow, a lie to lead

Being foolish to follow the deceptive lead provided.

Words I swallow down sicken me

Expressing disgust with the lies that were accepted.

You're not giving me what I need

Not receiving the emotional support needed in the relationship.

'Cause all you ever wanted was a piece of me

Reiterating that the other person's intention was to exploit.


Life's so cold and so sweet

Repeating the contrast between life's harshness and sweetness.

Still you're selling me sympathy

Continuing to receive insincere sympathy from the other person.

Bought your story but now I see

Confirming the realization that the other person's story was false.

All you ever wanted was a piece of me

Understanding that the other person sought to exploit.

A fool to follow, a lie to lead

Being foolish to follow the deceptive lead provided.

Words I swallow down sicken me

Expressing disgust with the lies that were accepted.

You're not giving me what I need

Not receiving the emotional support needed in the relationship.

'Cause all you ever wanted was a piece of me

Reiterating that the other person's intention was to exploit.
