Brave Youth
Farewell Echoes: Navigating Love's Contradictions with Kept Close
Lyrics
Time and time again
Expressing repetition and the passage of time.
We find ourselves here
Reflecting on finding oneself in a familiar situation.
With nothing left to gain
Acknowledging a lack of tangible benefits or progress.
And I'm not sure if I'm able to say
Uncertainty about the ability to express thoughts.
What it is I'm thinking
Describing difficulty verbalizing feelings or ideas.
But you swear this time, "It'll all be different"
Someone promises a positive change this time.
We'll be more than co-deficient
Aspiring to be more than merely adequate or lacking.
I don't think there's more left to say
Suggesting a sense of conclusion or resignation.
Nothing left to do
Emphasizing the absence of actions or options.
Nothing left to say
Reiterating a sense of finality or hopelessness.
So many times, I've tried to make things right but here again we stand
Attempts to rectify past mistakes, standing in the same situation.
All over again, I've done all I can
Acknowledging efforts that have been expended.
It's hard to fake this, it's overrated
Expressing difficulty in pretending or misleading.
You've made a fool out of me
Feeling deceived or made a fool of.
I know this may come as surprise
Surprise at a revelation or realization.
But I see nothing in your eyes
Perceiving emptiness or lack of emotion in someone's eyes.
I have tried everything I can just to make sense of this mess
Struggling to make sense of a chaotic situation.
But you always seem to think that you know what's best
Noticing a pattern of the other person thinking they know what's best.
Look at the time that you have wasted on this
Highlighting the time wasted on the relationship.
Look at the life that you have made
Reflecting on the life created amidst the struggles.
So many times, I've tried to make things right but here again we stand
Repetition of attempts to make amends without success.
All over again, I've done all I can
Reiterating the exhaustion of efforts.
It's hard to fake this, it's overrated
Emphasizing the difficulty in pretending or misleading.
You've made a fool out of me
Feeling deceived or made a fool of (repeated).
I want to make sense of this
Expressing a desire to understand the situation.
But I guess you'll always know best
Recognizing the other person's confidence in their judgment.
In this game made for you and I
Referring to a relationship as a game, acknowledging contradictions.
You lead a life that's so contradicting with all your selfish lies
Pointing out a life led with conflicting actions and selfish lies.
I guess this is goodbye
Acceptance of the end of the relationship.
So many times, I've tried to make things right but here again we stand
Repetition of failed attempts to make things right.
All over again, I've done all I can
Reiterating the exhaustion of efforts (repeated).
It's hard to fake this, it's overrated
Emphasizing the difficulty in pretending or misleading (repeated).
You made a fool out of me
Feeling deceived or made a fool of (repeated).
Out of me
(Repetition of feeling made a fool of)
Out of me
-Out of me
-Goodbye
Acknowledging and expressing farewell.
