The Worst In Me
Unveiling Life's Reflections
Lyrics
I knew a girl when I was young
I reminisce about a girl from my youth
She lived across the street
She resided nearby
When I was bored for a little fun
Engaging in mischievous acts for amusement when bored
I'd put drawing pins on her seat
I would play pranks like placing drawing pins on her chair
We were all in love with her
We, along with others, had affection for her
She was kind and she was sweet
She possessed kindness and sweetness
But she always seemed to see the worst in me
Despite positive qualities, she perceived my flaws
I met a girl in my college years
In my college years, encountered another girl
Filled with hope and filled with grace
Filled with optimism and grace
When I'd had too many beers
Under the influence, uttered offensive words to her
I'd curse her to her face
Despite love, I displayed hurtful behavior
I was so in love with her
I deeply loved her
She was all I'd ever need
She fulfilled all my needs
But she always seemed to see the worst in me
Yet, she saw the negative aspects in me
I met a girl and I married her
Married a girl, committed to a settled life
Settled on settling down
Chose stability over adventure
I was too weak to carry her
Admits personal weakness in carrying her burdens
But I could always put her down
Found solace in belittling her
I was so in love with her
Despite profound love, faced the harshness of love
But love can be so mean
Love can be unkind
And she always seemed to see the worst in me
She consistently perceived my flaws
People always telling me
Others advise against leading a solitary life
Don't lead a lonely life
Receive counsel not to be alone
When I'm dead you can bury me
Upon death, suggested burial next to someone else's spouse
Next to someone else's wife
Ironically referencing unconventional desires
When I'm at the pearly gates
Contemplating the afterlife, hoping for understanding
Heading for eternity
Heading towards eternity
I hope they don't see the worst in me
Expressing concern about being judged negatively
