Tenfooled
A Decade's Confession: Love, Mistakes, and Redemption in 'Tenfooled'
Lyrics
What's left to say
Expressing a sense of emptiness or exhaustion in communication.
That can help me now
Seeking assistance or guidance in a difficult situation.
Cuz I've fucked it up
Admitting mistakes or failures from the beginning.
Since the first day out
Acknowledging ongoing difficulties since the start.
And how am I still here
Reflecting on personal resilience despite challenges.
Cuz you deserve better
Recognizing that the other person deserves better treatment.
Than I've ever been
Admitting past shortcomings and inadequacies.
And my main fear is
Expressing fear of the consequences of past actions.
After all these tears
Highlighting a history of emotional pain and regret.
You wouldn't be here
Expressing concern that the other person might not stay despite the years of tears.
You wouldn't be here, you wouldn't be here...
-After 10 long years
Reflecting on a significant period of time and questioning continued interest.
Do you still wanna hear
-Me tell you that I'm
Affirming love and hope despite past mistakes.
In love with you
-I still hope that you do
-It's never been more true
Emphasizing the sincerity of the current feelings.
What's one more try
Considering another attempt at the relationship, despite previous challenges.
If we bottomed out
-We can get it right
-It's never thought about
Reflecting on the past difficulties and the inability to be apart.
And we've only ever proved
-That we can't be without
-But you deserve better
Acknowledging personal doubts and expressing concern for the other person.
Than my world of doubt
-And my main fear is
Reiterating fear of potential consequences despite the passage of time.
After all these tears
Recalling a history of tears and emotional struggles.
You wouldn't be here
Expressing doubt about the other person's continued presence.
You wouldn't be here, you wouldn't be here...
-After 10 long years
Questioning the other person's enduring interest after a long period.
Do you still wanna hear
-Me tell you that I'm
Reaffirming love and the hope for reciprocation.
In love with you
-I still hope that you do
-It's never been more true
Emphasizing the truthfulness of current feelings.
And I'm afraid I'm not made to be perfect
Expressing self-doubt, fear of inadequacy, and concern about negative impact on the other person.
I'm afraid I'm not built for this stuff
-And I'm afraid yeah that I'll only ruin you
-And you never will see it come
-A decade to learn my ways
Highlighting a long period of personal growth and learning.
And how to deal with me at all
-And you deserve better
Acknowledging the other person's worth but pleading for understanding.
But I'm begging you
-And my main fear is
Repeating the fear of consequences after a history of emotional turmoil.
After all these tears
Reflecting on the impact of past experiences and expressing doubt about the other person's presence.
You wouldn't be here
Reiterating uncertainty about the other person's continued commitment.
You wouldn't be here, you wouldn't be here...
-After 10 long years
Asking if the other person still wants to hear declarations of love after a decade.
Do you still wanna hear
-Me tell you that I'm
Expressing continued love and hope for reciprocation.
In love with you
-I still hope that you do
-It's never been more true
Stressing the truthfulness of current feelings.
