loved out loud
Unspoken Love's Melancholy Echo
Lyrics
You never told your family
You kept a secret from your family.
But mine were there to watch me bleed
My family witnessed my suffering and pain.
Paper cuts and poetry
Experiencing emotional wounds through creative expression, like poetry.
Pull the rug from underneath
Unexpectedly losing support or stability.
Then blame it on astrology
Shifting blame to external factors like astrology.
"The stars were out of line you see
Excusing actions by claiming celestial misalignment.
it's not my fault you fell for me"
Denying responsibility for someone falling in love.
Lay it out in lowercase
Expressing feelings in a diminished manner.
You couldn't say it to my face
Avoiding direct confrontation or communication.
Then join the list of things i hate
Becoming part of a list of disliked things as compensation.
That merely overcompensate
Overcompensating for unresolved issues.
For things i haven't figured out
Struggling to understand certain aspects of life.
Like how to make somebody proud
Difficulty in earning someone's pride.
And why i'm never loved out loud
Feeling a lack of love expressed openly.
Why i'm never loved out loud
Reiterating the absence of outwardly expressed love.
Take back all your compliments
Rejecting compliments received.
Your kindness has a consequence
Consequences of kindness being misunderstood.
Don't think i live by common sense
Not adhering to conventional wisdom.
These silent nights have violent ends
Nights of internal turmoil leading to potential conflicts.
Then come back when i'm on the mend
Returning when emotionally healed.
You'll be alright and i'll pretend
Putting on a brave front while concealing true feelings.
and then i'll fall in love again
Anticipating a cycle of falling in love again.
Then i'll fall in love again
Repeating the pattern of falling in love.
And it's hard to breathe
Experiencing emotional difficulty.
And i hardly sleep
Sleep deprivation due to emotional distress.
And my heart fell off my sleeve
A metaphorical expression of vulnerability.
Will you walk me home?
Requesting support or companionship on a difficult journey.
Will you break my bones?
Asking for honesty or facing harsh realities.
Will i let you leave?
Questioning the choice to let someone go.
Sing a song and cue the rain
Using music to evoke emotions.
I'll melt if you just say my name
Desiring recognition through a simple act.
A puddle by the window pane
Becoming emotionally vulnerable and fragile.
Dissolving in your last refrain
Disintegrating emotionally with each repeated expression.
A victim of the waiting game
Being a casualty of waiting for someone.
I feel so old and you're to blame
Feeling aged and holding someone accountable.
What a pity what a shame
Expressing regret or disappointment.
Your silence blew the candles out
Loss of hope or romantic atmosphere.
A smokey room a haunted house
Metaphor for a haunted emotional state.
Nothing left to cry about
Acceptance of emotional emptiness.
Only room for dying now
A sense of finality or resignation.
Still things i haven't figured out
Unresolved issues regarding earning pride.
Like how to make somebody proud
Reiteration of the difficulty in making someone proud.
And why i'm never loved out loud
Repeating the theme of not being openly loved.
Why i'm never loved out loud
Emphasizing the absence of outwardly expressed love.
