I'm Not Getting Better
Breaking Free: Unveiling the Journey of Healing in 'I'm Not Getting Better'
Lyrics
I'm tired of lying to you
I'm tired of being dishonest with you
I'm sick of being lied to
I'm weary of being deceived by others
I guess you can't hide the truth
It seems the truth cannot be concealed
After all this time I should be over
Despite the passage of time, I should have moved on
You got me round the bend
You have significant influence over me
Of your finger like a ring indent
Metaphorically, I'm under your control like a ring indentation
Can't let go of the things you did to me
I can't forget the impact of your actions on me
You think I'd fall apart by now
You expected me to be broken by now
I'm not gonna turn it back around
I won't revert to the past
Guess I'm learning how to move on by myself
I'm learning to move on independently
By myself
Emphasizing self-reliance
I'm not getting better
I'm not experiencing improvement
I'm not getting better
Reiteration of lack of progress
I'm not getting better
Emphasizing the stagnant state
I'm not getting better
Repeated confirmation of lack of improvement
I thought you saw the best in me
I believed you saw the best in me
'Til you found attention, then you left me
Until you sought attention elsewhere and abandoned me
You were preoccupied with your image in your town
You were overly concerned with your image in your community
So I left by myself
I chose to leave on my own
I took what's left, you set out just to break it
I took what remained after you deliberately broke it
But that will never be enough to slow me down
Your actions won't be sufficient to hinder my progress
Yeah you got me wrapped round the bend
You still have control over me
Of your finger like a ring indent
Reiteration of being under influence
Can't let go of the things you did to me
Unable to forget the impact of your past actions
You think I'd fall apart by now
You expected me to be emotionally broken by now
And I'm not gonna turn it back around
I won't revert to the past
Guess I'm learning how to move on by myself
Continuing the journey of moving on independently
By myself
Reiteration of self-reliance
I'm not getting better
No improvement in my emotional state
I'm not getting better
Repetition of lack of progress
I'm not getting better
Stressing the absence of improvement
I'm not getting better
Emphasizing the static condition
I've got an addiction and I can't forget her
Acknowledging an addiction and inability to forget
I'm coming to terms that I'm not getting better
Acceptance of the reality of not getting better
I've got an addiction and I can't forget her
Reiteration of struggling with an addiction
I'm coming to terms that I'm not getting better
Acknowledging the difficulty of improvement
Got an addiction and I can't forget her
Repeating the acknowledgment of an addiction
Coming to terms that I'm not getting better
Acceptance of the ongoing challenge of getting better
Got an addiction and I can't forget her
Repeating the acknowledgment of an addiction
Coming to terms that I'm not getting better
Acceptance of the ongoing challenge of getting better
