Too Easy to Hate
Navigating Brokenness: Hannah Blackburn's Tale of Resilience
Lyrics
I gotta move away from the glass,
I need to distance myself from a situation or perspective.
I gotta call my dad up,
I need to contact my father.
Find out where he got stuck,
Find out where he got stuck or faced difficulties.
Before our time is up,
Before our time together is over.
It's hard to tell you,
Expressing difficulty in sharing a personal experience.
About the time that my body got broken into,
Referring to a traumatic incident where the singer's body was violated.
I swear I'm fine,
Assuring others that everything is okay despite personal struggles.
Paying bills but still feel,
Managing financial responsibilities but still feeling emotionally dead.
Dead sometimes,
Expressing a sense of emotional numbness.
Those nights I didn't dream,
Describing nights without dreams, possibly due to trauma.
I'm owed my months just because I didn't scream,
Feeling entitled to a break from life's challenges.
Four days later I finally cried,
Delayed emotional release after a distressing incident.
I'm a bystander mourning my own life,
Feeling like a passive observer in one's own life.
I made this easy for you,
The singer has made it easy for someone to take advantage of their body.
To take this body and to,
Encouraging someone to use the singer's body for their own desires.
Get just what you think you need,
Advocating for meeting the other person's needs without considering the singer's well-being.
Forget your waste when you are looking for a feed,
Forgetting the consequences when fulfilling one's own desires.
Forget your waste when you are looking for a feed,
Repeated emphasis on forgetting consequences when seeking satisfaction.
Forget your waste when you are looking for a feed,
-I looked like waste when you were looking for a feed,
-I am a waste
Repetition of "I am a waste," possibly expressing feelings of self-worthlessness.
I am a waste
-I am a waste
-I am a waste
-I am a waste
-I am a waste
-It's hard to tell you,
Reiteration of the difficulty in sharing a traumatic experience while trying to appear fine.
About the time that my body got broken into,
-I swear I'm fine,
-Paying bills but still feel,
-Dead sometimes,
-It's too easy to hate everybody
Expressing the ease with which hatred towards others is felt.
It's too easy to hate everybody
