Lyrics

I had felt that this was wrong from the start

The speaker has felt that something was incorrect or not right from the beginning.

And I had felt that I was giving too much of myself

The speaker felt they were giving too much of themselves in a situation.

What'll it take to make you see that this is just some silly dream

Asking what it will take for someone to realize that the current situation is just an unrealistic or impractical dream.

That I don't want to be in anymore?

The speaker expresses the desire to no longer be a part of the situation or relationship.


You can't see what's right in front of you

There's something evident or obvious that the person being addressed cannot see or acknowledge.

Some things are better left unsaid

There are things that are better not expressed or communicated.

But what do you do when this is wrong for all of us?

Questioning what should be done when the situation is not right for everyone involved.


I don't want to

The speaker expresses a lack of desire.

Be the one who

Doesn't want to be the individual responsible for conveying that it's the end of the situation.

Has to tell you it's all over now

Expresses the reluctance to be the one to declare the end of the situation.


You have dealt with this all on your own

Recognition that the person addressed has handled the situation alone.

And you have dealt with this all for far too long

The person has been dealing with the situation for an extended period and it's been too long.

What'll it take to make you see that we just want you to succeed?

Asking what it will take for the person to understand that others want them to succeed.

Well I'm not so sure anymore

The speaker expresses uncertainty about their own feelings or perspective.


You can't see what's right in front of you

Reiteration that something obvious is not being perceived by the person being addressed.

I know you gave it your best shot

Acknowledging the efforts made by the person being addressed.

But what do you do when this is wrong for all of us?

Questioning what to do when the situation is not suitable or right for everyone involved.


I don't want to

Repeats the lack of desire to be involved.

Be the one who

Reiterates the reluctance to be the one to declare the end of the situation.

Has to tell you it's all over now

Expresses the sentiment of having to communicate that it's the end of the situation.
