Face Value
Face Value Unveiled: Navigating Doubt in Love
Lyrics
Forgive me,
Expressing remorse and seeking forgiveness.
I must be out of rope.
Feeling a sense of desperation or hopelessness.
We built a life, in the blink of an eye.
Reflecting on the rapid formation of a life or relationship.
Now it's torn apart, and my hands are tied.
Acknowledging the destruction of the relationship and a sense of powerlessness.
You give me,
Receiving only the minimum needed to continue, possibly in the relationship.
Just enough to keep going,
Desiring physical closeness and connection.
I'm reaching for your hand to keep you close.
Expressing a longing to hold onto the relationship.
How long do you think this can go?
Pondering the sustainability of the current situation.
Tell me how,
Requesting guidance or insight.
Tell me how,
Seeking advice on trusting the partner despite emotional barriers.
Tell me how to take you at face value,
-When I put the walls around you.
-Tell me how.
Reiteration of the plea for guidance.
Don't let me,
Fearing mistreatment or misunderstanding.
Treat you like I don't know you.
Expressing a desire not to treat the partner poorly.
We built a life, you can see it in my eyes.
Indicating the existence of a shared life, visible in one's eyes.
That I'm torn apart, and I don't think I can fight.
Conveying inner turmoil and doubt about the ability to continue.
But if this house is burning down,
Metaphorically addressing a crisis and contemplating separation.
Then you should save yourself.
-Don't reach for me, can you let me go?
-Before we finally go up in smoke.
-Tell me how,
Repeated plea for guidance and understanding in taking the partner at face value despite barriers.
Tell me how,
-Tell me how to take you at face value,
-When I put the walls around you.
-Tell me how.
-Tell me how,
-Tell me how,
-Tell me how to take you at face value,
-When I put the walls around you.
-Tell me how to take you at face value,
Struggling with persistent doubt in the relationship.
When all I ever do is doubt you.
-Tell me how,
Continued plea for guidance in trusting the partner, despite ongoing doubt.
Tell me how,
-Tell me how to take you at face value,
-When I put the walls around you.
-Tell me how to take you at face value,
-When all I ever do is doubt you.
