Heartbreak Echoes: Lise Kintz's 'Newspaper' Unraveled
Lyrics
I was standing every night
I stood every night.
Clinging and always thinking about
Clung to thoughts of the mess you made in my heart and head.
All the mess that you made
Reflecting on the emotional turmoil you caused.
In my heart in my head
The impact on my heart and mind.
But inside of me
Despite this, internally, I recognized it was too late.
I knew it was too late
A realization that the relationship couldn't endure.
Could last more than a dream
Doubts that the love could surpass mere dreams.
Now I'm crying in my bed
Presently, I cry in my bed.
So why did you play with me
Questioning why you played with my emotions.
You broke my heart you see
You caused significant emotional pain.
When I see you walking down the street
Seeing you in the street is challenging.
I should pretend my heart doesn't bleed
I pretend my heart isn't hurting.
And why did you promise you'd stay mine forever
Questioning why you promised everlasting commitment.
But you're already back with her
Discovering you've already returned to someone else.
I just drowned in the water
Feeling overwhelmed, drowning in emotional distress.
And I know it's over for us
Accepting the relationship is over.
But I'm still seeing you and trust me that shit hurts
Despite this, still encountering painful reminders of you.
And why can't I forget
Unable to forget.
And I can't move on yet
Struggling to move on.
Do you think about me?
Questioning if you think about me.
I wonder every time
A constant wonder about your thoughts.
'Cause I didn't know fear
Recalling a time when fear was unknown.
When you held me in your arms
A memory of security in your embrace.
So why did you play with me
Reflecting on the emotional games played.
You broke my heart you see
The aftermath of a broken heart.
When I see you walking down the street
Seeing you brings back painful emotions.
I should pretend my heart doesn't bleed
Pretending not to be affected.
And why did you promise you'd stay mine forever
Questioning unfulfilled promises of eternal commitment.
But you're already back with her
Discovering you've returned to someone from the past.
I just drowned in the water
Feeling overwhelmed, as if drowning.
And I hold my breath
Holding breath in distress.
Crying my bad thoughts
Crying over negative thoughts.
My heart is dead you let him on the ground
Heartache leading to emotional numbness.
I am down with this fucking open wound
Suffering from an exposed emotional wound.
I am down with this fucking open wound
Enduring the pain of an open emotional wound.
