Because of You
Enduring Pain: Reflecting on Emotional Turmoil in 'Because of You'
Lyrics
Why did you have to leave, make me beg on my knees for you to come back to me
Expressing pain and pleading for the person to return, emphasizing the emotional difficulty of their departure.
You were never nice, you were never patient, you locked my heart down in a dirty basement
Criticizing the person's behavior, describing them as unkind and impatient, and highlighting the emotional confinement caused by their actions.
Beating, only for you
Stating that the heart only beats for the person being addressed.
And now that you're gone, I can't imagine,
Reflecting on the challenge of imagining life after the person's departure.
I can't imagine a life without the pain,
Expressing the difficulty of envisioning a life without emotional pain, shame, heartbreak, and suffering.
All the shame, heartbreak, and suffering
Listing the emotional struggles experienced, including shame, heartbreak, and suffering.
I can't imagine a place where I feel okay, and this is all, all because of you
Highlighting the negative impact of the person on the speaker's life, attributing the emotional challenges to them.
I hate you now and I always will, for putting me on a pedestal where no one else can look at me
Expressing strong negative emotions towards the person, blaming them for placing the speaker in a difficult position.
You lied to my face, you lied every day, you told me no one else makes you feel this way
Accusing the person of lying and misleading, particularly about the uniqueness of their connection.
Deep down, I didn't believe
Admitting a lack of belief in the person's words or promises.
And now that you're gone, I can't imagine,
Reiterating the difficulty of imagining life without the person.
I can't imagine a life without the pain,
Repeating the sentiment of being unable to envision life without emotional pain.
All the shame, heartbreak, and suffering
Reiterating the emotional struggles, including shame, heartbreak, and suffering.
I can't imagine a place where I feel okay, and this is all, all because of you
Reaffirming the negative impact of the person on the speaker's life.
Praying for this day, waiting to see the sun,
Expressing a longing for a better future, symbolized by waiting for the sun and praying for change.
And now that it's come, I don't know what I've done
Reflecting on the confusion and uncertainty felt now that positive changes have occurred.
I've always dreamed in red, I've always lived to survive,
Describing a history of dreaming and living with intensity, with life seeming to favor the speaker.
Life is on my side, I feel so deprived
Feeling deprived despite life appearing to be on the speaker's side.
I can't imagine a life without the pain,
Reiterating the challenge of imagining life without emotional pain.
All the shame, heartbreak, and suffering
Reiterating the emotional struggles, including shame, heartbreak, and suffering.
I can't imagine a place where I feel okay, and this is all, all because of you
Reaffirming the negative impact of the person on the speaker's life.
All because of you
Stating that the challenging circumstances are all because of the person.
All because of you
Repeating the idea that the difficulties are all because of the person.
This is because of you
Emphasizing that the challenges are attributed to the person.
All because of you
Reiterating that the difficulties are all because of the person.
