Love's Cruel Twist: The Bitter Symphony of 'Left Out' by Chris LaRocca
Lyrics
I can see a smile on you when you're cruel,
I can perceive a sense of satisfaction on your face when you act unkindly,
When you roll your eyes
Specifically, when you express disdain by rolling your eyes,
I could bust the doors wide open,
I have the potential to reveal hidden truths or secrets,
Throw hands on your wedding night, yeah
I'm willing to confront and engage in conflict, even on the night of your wedding,
And I can see the smile on you, play it cool
Observing a pleased demeanor in you, maintaining a nonchalant attitude,
When you're killing my pride
Especially when you undermine or damage my self-respect,
Waiting at the end, at best
Anticipating an unfavorable outcome, at best,
I'm a consolation prize
I feel like a secondary or inferior reward,
Just when I thought I couldn't miss you more
Just as I believed my longing for you couldn't intensify any further,
Alone tonight, you got me feeling
Being by myself tonight, you evoke a specific emotional state in me,
Left out!!
Experiencing a strong sense of exclusion!!
I can't keep my mind off you
I struggle to divert my thoughts away from you,
Been stuck like a thorn in my side
I feel trapped or stuck, much like a persistent irritation in my life,
Thirty one years in this bitch I been pissed, not a day goes by
Having spent thirty-one years in challenging circumstances, I have been consistently angry; not a day passes without resentment,
I'm always reaching out for you, but what's waiting at the finish line?
Continuously trying to connect with you, but uncertain about what awaits me at the end of this pursuit,
If I make it to the end at best I'm a consolation prize
If I manage to reach the conclusion, the best outcome I can hope for is being a secondary or inferior reward,
Just when I thought I couldn't miss you more
Similar to the previous sentiment, just when I believe I couldn't long for you more,
Alone tonight, you got me feeling
Isolated tonight, you elicit a distinct emotional response in me,
Left out!!
Experiencing a profound sense of exclusion!!
