My Turn
Unheard Echoes: Selflessness Lost in Love
Lyrics
Why is it only about you
Expressing frustration about the focus being solely on the other person.
It's only ever me if you have something to prove
Highlighting a pattern where the speaker only matters when there's a need for validation or proof.
Anything I would help you through
Commitment to support and help the other person in any situation.
You know I'll be there on the double nothing I wouldn't do
Assuring unwavering loyalty and readiness to do anything for the other person.
But when do I get a turn
Expressing a desire for their own opportunity or chance.
Please before we crash and burn
Pleading for attention or consideration before the relationship deteriorates.
I'll listen to advice it can't be saved
Recognition of the futility of advice; the situation seems beyond repair.
I'm tired of all the fucking games we're through
Declaring the end of exhausting and hurtful games in the relationship.
It's only ever about you
Reiterating the one-sided nature of the focus in the relationship.
Always going separate ways
Describing a constant divergence in paths or goals.
You tell me I'm the problem and I'm stuck in a haze
Attributing problems to the speaker and feeling trapped or confused.
Saying that I'm in need of change
Acknowledging a need for personal change as suggested by the other person.
A change is what I'll take and now I'm not afraid to say that
Embracing the idea of change and expressing newfound fearlessness.
I'm never gonna get a turn
Resignation to the fact that the speaker may never have their chance or opportunity.
It's time I'll never get returned
Reflecting on the time lost that will never be recovered.
I'll listen to advice it can't be saved
Repeating the futility of advice, emphasizing its inability to salvage the situation.
I'm tired of all the fucking games we're through
Declaring the end of the hurtful games in the relationship.
It's only ever about you
Reiterating the frustration that the relationship revolves solely around the other person.
Oh, oh, oh
Expressing a sentiment about the constant focus on the other person.
About you
Reinforcing the theme that the narrative is consistently centered around the other person.
