RATHER BE LONELY
Embracing Solitude: Elijah Kyle's Heartfelt Reflection on Love and Loss
Lyrics
It's been a few years since we used to talk wonder if you think about me at all
Reflecting on the passage of time since the last communication, wondering if the person still thinks about the speaker.
About me at all
Reiteration of the thought about whether the person still thinks about the speaker.
No matter where I go you'll have my heart
Expressing a commitment that, no matter the physical distance, the person will always have the speaker's heart.
Been holding In this pain for way too long
Acknowledging enduring emotional pain and the difficulty of letting go.
And I've been tryna move on
Expressing efforts to move forward and overcome the pain.
I wonder how you sleep at night
Expressing curiosity about the person's well-being, particularly their emotional state during sleep.
I wonder if he treats you right
Wondering about the current partner's treatment of the person.
Knowing no matter what I won't be there by your side
Acknowledging the impossibility of being there for the person regardless of the situation.
I wonder if he knows your sides
Questioning whether the current partner truly knows all aspects of the person.
You always got to think you're right
Highlighting a tendency for the person to always believe they are right.
Taking everything that's mine is something I don't like
Expressing displeasure about someone taking away possessions.
Hiding from your selfish ways again Almost made me lose the way I am
Describing avoidance of the person's selfish behaviors, which almost led to a negative impact on the speaker.
Almost took away my fam and friends
Referring to the potential harm to the speaker's family and friends caused by the person's actions.
And I know you're not sorry
Asserting that the person is not sorry for their actions.
And I love you but I'd rather be lonely
Expressing love for the person but stating a preference for loneliness over the pain caused by the relationship.
Maybe that's the reason I don't ever play for keeps push away the people who mean Everything to me
Suggesting that past experiences of betrayal or disappointment lead to a guarded approach in relationships.
Crazy how many are just never what they seem flawless outside but it's dark underneath
Highlighting the contrast between external perfection and internal darkness in people.
I just want somebody who will love me for me never switch sides only be on my team
Expressing a desire for genuine love and loyalty in a relationship.
Thinking way back talking summer 16 with the view of the sun and it's you in my seat
Recalling a specific moment from the past (summer 16) and the desire to reclaim what was lost.
I want it all back everything that we had but I know that your hearts trash
Expressing a desire to regain everything from the past, despite acknowledging the person's negative qualities.
Bright blue eyes but I saw black and I really hope that you don't ever call back
Describing a discrepancy between the person's outward appearance and their true nature.
Hiding from your selfish ways again Almost made me lose the way I am
Reiteration of avoiding the negative impact of the person's selfish behavior.
Almost took away my fam and friends
Reiterating the potential harm to the speaker's family and friends caused by the person's actions.
And I know you're not sorry
Reasserting that the person is not sorry for their actions.
And I love you but I'd rather be lonely
Expressing love for the person but stating a preference for loneliness over the pain caused by the relationship.
And I know you're not sorry

But I'd rather be lonely
Repeating the preference for loneliness over the pain caused by the relationship.
I know you're not sorry
