Deserving
Yearning for Redemption: Unveiling the Depths of 'Deserving' by John Smith
Lyrics
How come you haven't left me?
The speaker wonders why their partner hasn't left them.
Why'd you never let me go?
Questioning why their partner has never allowed them to leave.
When I could feel you yearning
Expressing a sense of awareness about their partner's desire for a part of them that remains hidden or unexposed.
Oh for the side I never show
Yearning for acceptance despite hiding an undisclosed aspect of themselves.
You always say there's time to learn
Recognizing the possibility of learning and personal growth.
So many corners yet to turn
There are many opportunities for change and progression.
Raging and hurting
Feeling intense emotions, possibly anger and pain.
Am I deserving of your love?
Questioning if they are worthy of their partner's love due to their inner turmoil.
Crashing and burning
Experiencing a metaphorical "crash and burn" situation, possibly in the relationship.
Am I deserving of your love?
Doubting their worthiness of receiving love because of their struggles.
The years are passing quicker
Noting the passage of time and how it feels slow and burdensome.
And my days are twice as long
Reflecting on a sense of not having progressed as expected in life.
I should have settled down by now
Regretting not having settled into a stable life by this point.
I thought the anger would be gone
Expected anger to diminish but finding it still present.
You always say there's time to grow
Acknowledging the potential for personal growth despite lacking knowledge.
So many things that I don't know
Realizing there are many things they are yet to learn or understand.
Yes and I insist I know my mind
Asserting confidence in knowing one's own mind and beliefs.
But honey I'm hanging on for dear life
Despite claiming confidence, holding on desperately to the relationship.
I am deserving of your love
Expressing a desire for validation and affirmation of deserving love.
