I Never Should Have Let You In
Heartache Unveiled: Regrets of Love in Cain Kerner's Melody
Lyrics
I never should have let you in
Regretting the decision to allow someone into one's life
Was doing just fine
Life was going well before the entry of the mentioned person
But one night turned into a week
A short encounter extended into a longer period
I keep a pillow on the side you would sleep
Symbolic reference to the presence of the person, keeping a pillow on their side
Lost in all my dreams
Feeling emotionally immersed in one's dreams and thoughts
I can't breathe without you
Expressing emotional dependency on the mentioned person
Knock me off my feet
The person has a profound impact, overwhelming the speaker
I'm so weak around you
Admitting vulnerability and emotional weakness when around the person
Holding on to hurt
Clutching onto emotional pain and negative feelings
Every day it worsens
The emotional distress intensifies with each passing day
She don't see me as a person
Feeling dehumanized or not valued in the eyes of the person
But I still find myself
Despite negative feelings, the speaker is still entangled with the person
Waiting on someone else
Waiting for someone else, possibly indicating a desire for a different connection
I never should have let you in
Reiterating regret over allowing the person into one's life
Was doing just fine
Recalling a state of well-being before the person's presence
But one night turned into a week
Highlighting the extension of a brief encounter into a more prolonged period
I keep a pillow on the side you would sleep
Continuing the symbolic reference to the person's presence through a pillow
Tears in my eyes start to roll down my cheek, yeah
Expressing emotional distress with tears rolling down the speaker's cheek
She got a new dude every other week
Noting the person's frequent changes in romantic partners
I been staying home every weekend
Isolating oneself, avoiding social activities due to emotional turmoil
I don't have a reason to leave
Lacking motivation or purpose to engage in external activities
Gave up faith in what I believe in
Losing faith in personal beliefs and values
I can't take when we ain't speaking
Expressing discomfort when communication with the person is absent
I wish you were laying here beside me
Longing for the physical presence of the person who is not currently there
But you cry every time you're around me
The person seems emotional or distressed when in the speaker's presence
I never should have let you in
Reiterating regret over the decision to allow the person into one's life
Was doing just fine
Reflecting on a previous state of contentment before the person's influence
But one night turned into a week
Emphasizing the elongation of a casual encounter into a more prolonged period
I keep a pillow on the side you would sleep
Continuing the symbolic representation of the person's absence through a pillow
Lost in all my dreams
Reiterating the emotional immersion in dreams without the person
I can't breathe without you
Expressing emotional dependency and difficulty in functioning without the person
Knock me off my feet
Highlighting the overpowering effect of the person on the speaker
I'm so weak around you
Acknowledging the emotional weakness and vulnerability around the person
