Lyrics
I can't control
I lack control over a situation or emotion.
I can't explain
I'm unable to provide a satisfactory explanation.
The thoughts you burn
Your thoughts deeply affect and imprint on my mind.
Into my brain
These thoughts are etched or engraved into my brain.
You wanted life
You desired a fulfilling life.
You loved to laugh
You enjoyed laughter and joy.
Now write it on
Now, these aspects of your life are to be memorialized in writing on your epitaph (a commemorative inscription).
Your Epitaph
This is a continuation of the epitaph idea, emphasizing the finality of life.
You never did
You never took certain actions or made specific choices.
I gave my best
I put forth my utmost effort.
I tried for you
I made an attempt for your sake.
You paid me less
Your compensation or acknowledgment was inadequate, less than what I deserved.
Than half my due
You didn't fulfill even half of what was owed to me.
What can I say
This expresses a sense of helplessness or resignation.
What can you do
There is a question about what can be said or done in the current circumstances.
I'm needing more
I require more, and this is an honest statement.
And that's the truth
Emphasizing the truthfulness of the need for more.
You never did
Reiteration of the earlier line, highlighting the absence of certain actions or choices.
Oh but it's like
A comparison or simile indicating the inevitability of something.
I can't stop it
Expressing the difficulty of stopping or preventing something.
Can't pretend I didn't want it to ever end like this But you never did
Despite the desire for a different outcome, it's acknowledged that the end is as it is.
You never did
Reiteration of the absence of specific actions or behaviors.
