All I've Ever Wanted to Say
Unveiling the Heart's Struggle: All I've Ever Wanted to Express
Lyrics
This is all I ever wanted to say
This expresses the singer's intention to convey a specific message.
The words always come out the wrong way
Despite the desire to communicate, the singer struggles with articulating their feelings accurately.
I say go when I really want you to stay
There's a tendency to push people away ("go") when the true desire is for them to stay.
Say I'm fine when I am not ok
The singer often pretends to be fine when, in reality, they are not okay.
This is all I ever wanted to say
Reiteration of the singer's primary desire to express themselves.
My thoughts are always 100 miles away
The singer's thoughts frequently wander and are not present in the moment.
It's black or white with me there is no grey
The singer tends to see things in extremes, lacking middle ground ("black or white").
This is all I ever wanted to say
Repeat of the singer's overarching desire to communicate their thoughts.
I'm sad even on a good day
Even on good days, the singer experiences sadness.
When I'm mad it's my way or the highway
The singer asserts their strong opinions, especially when angry, possibly causing conflicts ("my way or the highway").
It feels like all I do is sit and wait
The singer feels stuck in a routine of waiting and longing.
Still I manage to turn up late
Despite the waiting, the singer tends to be late.
This is all I ever wanted to say
Reiteration of the singer's primary desire to express themselves.
This is all I ever wanted to say
Emphasizing the importance of the message the singer wants to convey.
Sometimes I don't appreciate
The singer acknowledges occasional failure to recognize and value what they have.
What I have until it is to late
Realization of the importance of things only after they are lost or too late.
If you get to close I won't stay
The singer tends to avoid intimacy and may leave if someone gets too close emotionally.
I always want to run away
Expresses a persistent desire to escape from situations or responsibilities.
I'm so glad that you don't look the other way
Gratitude for someone not turning away despite the singer's flaws or struggles.
Im so glad that you love me anyway
Expresses appreciation for being loved despite shortcomings.
Maybe I will learn all this someday
Hopeful reflection on the possibility of learning and growing in the future.
But for now its all I wanted to say
Acknowledging the present limitation and acceptance of it being all the singer can express for now.
This is all I ever wanted to say
Reiteration of the singer's primary desire to express themselves.
This is all I ever wanted to say
Final affirmation of the singer's longing to convey their feelings.
