Happily Ever After
Unraveling Bonds: Navigating Regret and Lost Time
Lyrics
How did I come to become
Reflecting on personal identity and existence
How did we come to become this way
Questioning the transformation of the self and relationships
When we were inseparable
Recalling a time of strong connection with someone
Formula of rituals I have lived
Describing a life governed by established patterns and routines
Lost time - resentment
Feeling the impact of lost time and harboring resentment
I can't forgive when we were inseparable
Expressing an inability to forgive the separation from a close bond
Made a commitment to resentment
Making a commitment to holding onto resentment
You will never forget it
Assuring that the memory will persist
Side by side oblivious protected
Being together yet oblivious and protected
Someone to hide behind
Having someone to rely on for support
Situation of security
Describing a situation of security
Foundation of stability
Referring to a foundation of stability
Happily ever after
Ironically mentioning the idea of "Happily ever after"
I won't but that shit
Rejecting the notion of a perfect ending
Happily ever after
Repeating skepticism towards a perfect ending
Sacrifice my freedom
Expressing reluctance to sacrifice personal freedom
My precious time
Highlighting the preciousness of time
For money and security
Questioning the trade-off between money and security
For my senile state of time
Describing a state of aging and declining mental faculties
Look in the future
Looking ahead to the future
Save all my money
Emphasizing the importance of saving money
While life slips away
Acknowledging the passage of time
Slip away unchallenged
Allowing time to slip away without challenge
Happily ever after
Repeating the ironic mention of "Happily ever after"
Stagnating ill choking on
Describing a stagnant and unhealthy state
A bitter pill something went
Experiencing the bitterness of a situation gone wrong
Wrong this is not how I am
Denying conformity to the negative feelings
Supposed to feel there must
Expressing a sense of emotional dissonance
Be something seriously wrong
Suspecting a serious issue with personal well-being
With me I've gone out and
Reflecting on past actions and experiences
Done all the things that
Completing expected life milestones
Were supposed to bring me
Questioning the promised harmony from these actions
Harmony still not
Expressing continued dissatisfaction despite efforts
Satisfied someone must
Positing a deception about achieving contentment
Have lied about this
Suspecting dishonesty in societal expectations
Formula formula of
Repeating the formulaic nature of lived rituals
Rituals I have lived
Reiterating a life governed by routines
So busy so involved in your lie
Being deeply involved in a deceptive existence
That I forgot to even try
Forgetting to strive for personal fulfillment
Only alive to do what's
Existing solely to fulfill prescribed expectations
Prescribed?
Raising a question about the authenticity of one's life
Living a sacrifice?
Reflecting on the possibility of living a sacrificial life
