Ego
Fragile Hearts and Shattered Egos: Kaeley Jade's Emotional Journey
Lyrics
Stop and think how I could have avoided
Reflecting on how the speaker could have avoided a certain situation.
You if I’d just stayed home, heard the warnings
Regretting not heeding warnings and now dealing with the consequences.
Now I’m a little drunk, and I’m vibing in the corner with the coats
Currently feeling a bit intoxicated and enjoying a solitary moment in the corner among coats.
Was a minor thing I turned to something
Originally a small issue that escalated into something significant.
Looming, crashing over, and I’m drowning
Feeling overwhelmed by a looming and crashing situation, metaphorically drowning.
But since it’s not my style, I’m trying not to make a scene
Trying not to create a scene because it's not the speaker's usual behavior.
My heart proved more fragile than your ego
Comparing the fragility of the speaker's heart to the strength of the other person's ego.
All the words that I hurled didn’t bite, didn’t tear you apart
Words thrown at the person didn't have the intended impact, didn't break them emotionally.
Ten deep breaths and I’ll scatter like the snow
Planning to leave or disperse like snow after taking ten deep breaths.
If I could let it go then I would, but it’s so damn hard
Expressing difficulty in letting go of the situation despite the desire to do so.
Thousand lights are flashing, pulsing, blinding
Describing a chaotic scene with numerous flashing lights, feeling like the center of it.
I’m the epicentre, and I’m finding
Acknowledging the voices around, possibly critical, loud, and affecting the speaker.
The voices speaking out laugh too loud, ripping through my veins
Intense emotions and reactions, likened to ripping through the speaker's veins.
My heart proved more fragile than your ego
Reiterating the vulnerability of the speaker's heart compared to the other person's ego.
All the words that I hurled
Continuation of the impact of words thrown, emphasizing their ineffectiveness.
didn’t bite, didn’t tear you apart
Words didn't cause emotional damage or break the other person apart.
Ten deep breaths and I’ll scatter like the snow
Repeating the intention to disperse or leave after taking deep breaths.
If I could let it go then I would, but it’s so damn hard
Reiterating the difficulty in letting go despite the strong desire to do so.
I wish you hated me, over apathy
Expressing a wish for the other person to hate the speaker rather than be indifferent.
I had crowned you with fears and my childish hopes
Acknowledging that the speaker had placed fears and hopes on the other person.
I wish you hated me, over apathy
Repeating the desire for the other person to feel hate instead of apathy.
I don’t care how you feel but it kills me that you don’t
Indifference from the other person hurts the speaker, regardless of the speaker's feelings.
My heart proved more fragile than your ego
Recalling the fragile nature of the speaker's heart compared to the other person's ego.
All the words that I hurled didn’t bite, didn’t tear you apart
Reiteration of the ineffectiveness of words thrown at the other person.
Ten deep breaths and I’ll scatter like the snow
Planning to disperse or leave after taking ten deep breaths.
If I could let it go then I would, but it’s so damn hard
Expressing the ongoing difficulty in letting go of the situation.
Ten deep breaths and I’ll scatter like the snow
Repeating the intention to disperse or leave after taking deep breaths.
If I could let it go then I would
Reiterating the difficulty in letting go despite the strong desire to do so.
