Lyrics
Putting yourself first isn't always selfish
Putting your needs before others' isn't always a selfish act.
It's beneficial for both parties
It can benefit both parties involved.
Don't suffer just for her wish
Don't endure suffering just to fulfill someone else's desire.
You know you're not at ease
You're aware that you're not comfortable or content.
Attempt to make everything ok
Trying hard to resolve issues, but some things can't be forced to be fixed.
But these things just can't be forced
There are situations that won't yield to efforts to make them better.
You think you're doing the right thing
You believe you're doing what's right.
Even though you feel deep remorse
Even though you deeply regret or feel sorrowful about it.
Trying to protect the mantelpiece
Trying to protect something important, but inadvertently causing harm.
But you're the one doing the damage
You're the one causing damage despite good intentions.
Times only causing casualties
Time passing only leads to more losses.
When will you finish what you started
When will you complete what you've started?
It's so much easier to let it carry on
Continuing a situation feels easier than resolving it.
You're causing pain and fake
You're creating false happiness but causing pain.
Happiness for some
Some people are only superficially happy due to your actions.
Hurry up and just end it, this ain't no fun
Urging to end a situation as it's not enjoyable anymore.
And be the better one
And strive to be the morally better person in this scenario.
In these times you have to be strong
In challenging times, it's necessary to display strength.
Don't avoid the inevitable
Avoiding the inevitable won't help.
The pain caused will soon be gone
The pain caused will eventually fade away.
You gotta think in the long term
Consider the long-term consequences of your actions.
Put on your mask every morning
Putting on a facade or hiding your true feelings each day.
This can't be good for your mental health
Continuing this might negatively impact your mental well-being.
The cloud just keeps on pouring
The difficulties or troubles persist without relief.
Why are you doing this to yourself
Questioning why you're subjecting yourself to this situation.
If you're not the primary character
If you're not the main character in your own life story, something's wrong.
In your own story
Don't let others completely control your life.
Then something has gone wrong
Assert your own identity and agency.
Don't let anybody take full control
Prevent anyone from taking total charge of your life.
You are your own person
Remember, you are an individual with your own autonomy.
