How U Really Feel
Unveiling Heartbreak: Emotions Unraveled in 'How U Really Feel'
Lyrics
I would've loved you for a lifetime
I had the intention of loving you for a lifetime.
But I guess it wasn't meant to be
Our love was not destined to last.
And maybe I was indecisive
I may have been uncertain or hesitant.
So you made your mind up for me
You made decisions on my behalf because of my indecisiveness.
And now it hurts just to breathe
Experiencing pain just to breathe after the relationship ended.
How the hell can something beautiful turn so ugly
Expressing disbelief at how something beautiful turned ugly.
I wish I was stronger
Wishing for greater emotional strength.
Wish I could accept this straight-faced
Desiring the ability to accept the situation without emotional display.
Wish you the best
Wishing the best for the ex-partner.
You can take the photos off of your wall
Suggesting the removal of photos from the wall.
But you can't take away the way that you really feel
Emphasizing that the emotional impact remains despite removing physical reminders.
Act like you're just fine, but you're just lying
Pointing out the pretense of being fine when actually lying emotionally.
No, you can't take away the way that you really feel
Reiterating that the true feelings cannot be erased.
And in a way I'm feeling guilty
Feeling guilt for taking a while to realize the lack of love in the relationship.
'cause I know it took you quite a while
Acknowledging the ex-partner's struggle to admit the lack of love.
To get the courage to admit that
Recognizing the time it took for the ex-partner to confess.
You hadn't loved me for some time
Acknowledging that the ex-partner hadn't loved for some time.
You said my mental health was stressful
Recalling the ex-partner labeling mental health as stressful.
Well, how do you think I feel?
Expressing the emotional toll of dealing with mental health issues.
I didn't wreck my head on purpose
Asserting that personal struggles were not intentional.
I won't apologize for this
Refusing to apologize for personal challenges.
And though you still, now and then,
Despite occasional appearances in dreams, feeling better now.
Show up in my dreams like nothing's changed
Noting that the ex-partner appears unchanged in dreams.
I feel so much better now
Expressing a significant improvement in emotional well-being.
So much better now
Reaffirming the positive emotional state.
And I keep asking myself if I should feel bad about it
Questioning whether feeling better should be a source of guilt.
You can take the photos off of your wall
Repeating the idea of removing photos from the wall.
But you can't take away the way that you really feel
Stating the inability to erase the genuine emotions.
Act like you're just fine, but you're just lying
Highlighting the contrast between outward appearance and true feelings.
No, you can't take away the way that you really feel
Emphasizing the permanence of true emotions.
I try, oh, I try
Expressing efforts to be around despite not being wanted.
You don't want me around
Feeling defeated due to rejection.
And I feel so defeated
Conveying a sense of loss and emotional exhaustion.
I tried but you're leaving
Acknowledging the attempt to prevent the ex-partner from leaving.
Maybe this is good for me
Suggesting that the separation might be beneficial for personal growth.
Maybe I deserve a love that really wants to love me back
Believing in deserving a love that reciprocates.
You can take the photos off of your wall
Reiterating the idea of removing photos but not the true feelings.
But you can't take away the way that you really feel
Affirming the persistence of genuine emotions despite pretense.
Act like you're just fine, but you're just lying
Highlighting the contradiction between appearance and true emotions.
No, you can't take away the way that you really feel
Emphasizing the lasting nature of authentic feelings.
