A Better Man Than Me
Unveiling Betrayal: A Better Man's Redemption in Sound
Lyrics
Now that I've come to see
Reflecting on a realization.
That it was you, not me
Acknowledging that the issue was the other person's, not the speaker's.
All these lies believed
Noticing the deception and falsehoods believed.
Although it never occurred to me
Realizing the speaker was unaware of certain things.
that you'd come undone
Discovering the other person's emotional breakdown.
You thought I'd lost and you'd won
Perceiving the other's miscalculation in thinking they won.
Your bridges burned, you're shunned
Seeing consequences with damaged relationships.
And now it's time to pay. . .
Time for the other person to face consequences.
Only One thing left to say
Expressing there's only one thing left to say.
And be it as it may
Accepting the situation as it is.
Can't WAIT for judgement day
Anticipating the reckoning or justice.
My life was given back to me
Reclaiming one's life.
How does it feel?
Asking the other person how it feels.
You look at me, you kneel!
Observing the other person's humility.
I don't need anyone
Asserting independence, not relying on others.
To tell me it's real.
Believing in the reality without external validation.
Fuck you don't tell me
Expressing defiance and resentment.
I can see he's a better man than me
Acknowledging someone else as superior.
What you want.
Asking about the other person's desires.
What you need.
Recognizing the difference in wants and needs.
It's not the same, I tried.
Admitting an attempt at understanding without success.
I never questioned why.
Having no doubts or questions about past actions.
I always felt that I
Always feeling that the best was done for the other person.
Had done the best I could for you.
Expressing commitment and effort in the relationship.
But now without me
Noting the impact of the speaker's absence.
Albeit painfully
Acknowledging the pain caused by the speaker's departure.
I guess that you can't seem
Recognizing the other's difficulty in understanding.
To get this clearly
Expressing frustration at the lack of comprehension.
Fuck you don't tell me
Reiterating defiance and resentment.
I can see he's a better man than me.
Reaffirming the acknowledgment of someone else's superiority.
What you want.
Asking again about the other person's desires.
What you need.
Reiterating the distinction between wants and needs.
Fuck you don't tell me.
Repeating defiance and resentment.
