Broken Harridan: Love's Deception Unveiled
Lyrics
For the first time I feel like I have won
Expressing the feeling of victory for the first time.
This emotional game of push and shove
Describing the emotional struggle as a game of push and shove.
You loved me like a broken harridan
Characterizing the love received as that of a damaged or troubled woman.
If you win, I'll have no one to blame it on
If the partner wins, the speaker won't have anyone else to blame.
Through the lies
Emphasizing the experience of deception.
Through the stress
Highlighting the stress in the relationship.
Those conversations
Referring to significant conversations in the relationship.
With the words
Describing the impact of spoken words.
On your breath
Suggesting insincerity through the words spoken.
You don't love anyone
Alleging that the partner doesn't truly love anyone.
Through the lies
Reiteration of the lack of genuine love in the relationship.
Through the stress
-Those conversations
-With the words
-On your breath
-You don't love anyone
-When you close your eyes to fall sleep
Imagining finding solace while asleep but being lost in eternity.
You'll find me I'm lost in eternity
Continuation of the theme of being lost in eternity during sleep.
With a broken riffle on my back
Visualizing a person with a broken rifle on their back, searching for something elusive.
Searching for that rabbit in that hat
Metaphorical quest for something difficult to attain.
Through the lies
Repetition of the idea that the partner doesn't truly love anyone.
Through the stress
-Those conversations
-With the words
-On your breath
-You don't love anyone
-Through the lies

Live that lie

Reiterating the theme of insincere love and deceptive conversations.
Through the stress
-Those conversations
