Unforgivable
Embracing Darkness: A Tale of Unforgivable Desires
Lyrics
There's not a manual for this kind of thing but I've been doing some reading
Expressing the lack of guidance in handling such situations, despite seeking information.
There have been people like me since they could slither through Eden
Acknowledging the existence of individuals with similar traits or tendencies throughout history.
And I can try real hard to go against my nature, but there's only so much I can do
An admission of limitations in changing inherent traits despite efforts to resist them.
I am still a scorpion, and then there's you
Highlighting the contrast between the speaker's nature and the person they're addressing.
I'm scared that I am gonna ruin your life
Fear of negatively impacting the other person's life due to the speaker's actions or nature.
And you'll still try to forgive me for the unforgivable
Anxiety about committing acts that may seem unforgivable, yet hoping for forgiveness despite this fear.
I know it seems like I'm always picking fights
Admitting to a pattern of conflict initiation.
I just want you to confirm what I already know
Seeking validation or confirmation of negative beliefs or self-perceptions.
No one who has known me has loved me
Expressing doubt about receiving genuine love from those who've known the speaker.
I am evil, it's not worth the debate anymore
Acceptance of being perceived as inherently evil, with a sense of resignation.
Do you want to spend your precious time taking care of me
Questioning whether it's fair for the other person to invest their time and care in the speaker.
When I can't stand myself anymore
Acknowledging a point where self-loathing becomes unbearable.
I wouldn't ask you to do that
Asserting that the speaker wouldn't want to burden the other person.
Frankly, I don't deserve your grace
Feeling undeserving of the kindness or forgiveness being offered.
I wouldn't ask you to do that
Reiterating the reluctance to burden the other person with the speaker's issues.
God, please take this burden away
An appeal or prayer for relief from the burdens carried.
In my defense, I tried to warn you what I'm capable of
Attempting to warn the other person about the speaker's capabilities or tendencies.
I guess it's not the kind of thing you believe until you see it in action
Realization that warnings about the speaker's nature might not be believed until witnessed firsthand.
I tried my best to leave you out of it, but the dark always bites back
Efforts to keep the other person away from negative aspects, but the darkness inevitably affects them.
Until suddenly you're part of the aftermath
The other person becoming involved in the aftermath despite efforts to protect them.
I'm scared that I am gonna ruin your life
Repetition of the fear of causing harm to the other person.
And you'll still try to forgive me for the unforgivable
Hope for forgiveness despite the perceived unforgivable actions or nature.
I know it seems like I'm always picking fights
Recognition of a recurring tendency to instigate conflicts.
I just want you to confirm what I already know
Desire for confirmation of negative beliefs about oneself.
No one who has known me has loved me
Doubt about receiving genuine love from those familiar with the speaker.
I am evil, it's not worth the debate anymore
Acceptance of being seen as inherently evil without room for debate.
Do you want to spend your precious time taking care of me
Questioning the fairness of the other person investing time and care in the speaker's well-being.
When I can't stand myself anymore
Expression of unbearable self-loathing.
I wouldn't ask you to do that
Reassurance to the other person that the speaker wouldn't want to burden them.
Frankly, I don't deserve your grace
Feeling unworthy of the kindness or forgiveness being offered.
I wouldn't ask you to do that
Reiteration of not wanting to burden the other person.
I am a burden, God, take me away
Viewing oneself as a burden and expressing a wish to be relieved from it.
