Disposable Echoes: A Heart's Struggle with Deception
Lyrics
When we first met
Initial encounter with positive feelings.
It was good, it was easy
The beginning was enjoyable and trouble-free.
And all our friends
Friends approved; having a great time.
Ate it up, I was having so much fun
Public perception was positive, and enjoyment was high.
So I told you how I felt
Expressed feelings to the partner.
And you said you felt the same
Partner reciprocated the feelings.
So why did you tuck your tail and run away
Partner unexpectedly withdrew and left.
Well that's the last time I
Expressing disappointment and decision not to accept less than deserved.
Justify getting less
Rejecting compromises that undervalue oneself.
Than what I deserve
Asserting the right to fair treatment.
You treated me conveniently
Partner treated the person conveniently, portraying them negatively.
And it made me look pathetic
Resulted in looking desperate and pathetic.
Fucking desperate
Expressing frustration and desperation.
Why'd you have to go
Questioning why the partner left.
And make me feel disposable
Feeling unimportant and easily discarded.
Sometimes I feel like a child
Comparing oneself to a naive child regarding reality.
So naive to reality
Awareness of being naive to the partner's intentions.
Why did I let you drive my car
Regretting allowing the partner to use personal belongings.
When I knew you were using me
Realization of being exploited by the partner.
Yeah, I'm so confused
Confusion and inner turmoil.
Cause I let you over and over again
Repeatedly allowing the partner into one's life.
Over and over again, and
Continued repetition of the cycle.
Well that's the last time I
Reiteration of not accepting less than deserved.
Justify getting less
Rejecting compromises again.
Than what I deserve
Insisting on fair treatment.
You treated me conveniently
Partner's convenient treatment negatively affecting self-perception.
And it made me look pathetic
Resulting in a negative self-image.
Fucking desperate
Expression of frustration and desperation.
Why'd you have to go
Questioning the partner's decision to leave.
And make me feel disposable
Feeling easily replaceable and unimportant.
Oooh, ooh
Expressive vocalization of emotion.
Well full offense
Taking a strong stance against the partner's actions.
Cause I think you really fucked it up this time
Acknowledging a serious mistake by the partner.
I'm sorry you're afraid to feel
Empathizing with the partner's fear of genuine emotion.
That you don't know what's real
Questioning the partner's grasp on reality.
Well I guess you won this one since
Acknowledging the partner's victory in the situation.
Here I am with this song
Creation of a song as a form of expression and coping.
Realizing that (That) you (You)
Realization that the partner never cared.
Never even cared at all
Confirmation of the partner's indifference.
Well that's the last time I
Final rejection of wasting time on mediocrity.
Choose to waste my time
Choosing not to invest time in unworthy pursuits.
On mediocrity and you
Rejecting mediocrity and the partner.
You treated me (Oh, you treated me)
Reiteration of convenient treatment.
Conveniently (So fucking conveniently)
Emphasizing the partner's convenient actions.
And it made me look pathetic
Resulting in a negative self-perception.
Fucking desperate
Expression of frustration and desperation.
I think you should know (Oh, I think you should know)
Asserting the partner's disposability.
That I think you're disposable (Yeah, you're disposable)
Final declaration of the partner being disposable.
