Lyrics

I was called cold hearted many times

I've been labeled as cold-hearted multiple times.

I was judged for my past

I've faced judgment for my past actions.

Hide a lot of pain behind my smile

I conceal a lot of pain behind my smile.

I gave up now I don't give a fuck

I gave up, and now I don't care about the consequences.

I was told I had to be alone

I've been advised to be alone, suggesting love makes one vulnerable.

That the love would make me weak

There's a belief that love could make me weak.

When I see you I always want more

Despite seeing you, my desire for more persists.

But you keep running away from me

You keep avoiding me despite my feelings.

People are gonna talk, depends on you how u react

People will talk, and my reaction will influence the impact of their words.

Tried to give you my all, enough for you to break my heart

I tried to give my all, risking heartbreak.

Will I be able to love again?

Questioning the possibility of loving again.

When you're not next to mine

The absence of your presence affects my sense of completeness.

Life just doesn't feel right

Life feels incomplete without you.

If you were on my side

If you were supportive, everything might be different.

Maybe you'd understand

If you were on my side, you might comprehend my struggles.

That I try and I try, but It's never enough

Despite my continuous efforts, it seems insufficient.

And I'm not sure I'm gonna make it

Uncertain if I can overcome the challenges.

I tried, I tried, I tried

Expressing the effort made, repeatedly saying 'I tried.'

I tried,

Reiteration of the acknowledgment of trying.

I tried I tried

Continued emphasis on the attempts made.

You can live without having a soul

Highlighting the importance of a heart for existence.

But you need a heart to breath

When you're present, I feel under your influence.

When you're here I'm under your control

Aware of potential emotional harm but determined to protect myself.

You could hurt me deep, won't let you in

I won't let you deeply hurt me despite your capacity to do so.

Couldn't feel a thing for anyone

I became emotionally numb towards others.

Didn't want to accept the truth

Resisting acceptance of a painful truth.

When I first met you I fell in love

Fell in love initially, but lacked self-love.

But I didn't love me, how could you?

If I don't love myself, how can you love me?

People are gonna talk, depends on you how you react

People will talk, and my response matters.

Tried to give you my all,

Continuing efforts to give my all.

Will I be able to love again?

Questioning the possibility of future love.

Hundreds of thoughts come through my mind

Overwhelmed by numerous thoughts.

I overthink, I'm gonna explode,

Experiencing intense overthinking, feeling on the verge of exploding.

I've cried too many times my heart's not longer mine

Experienced too much pain; my heart feels no longer mine.

When you're not next to mine

The absence of your presence affects my sense of completeness.

Life just doesn't feel right

Life feels incomplete without you.

If you were on my side

If you were supportive, everything might be different.

Maybe you'd understand

If you were on my side, you might comprehend my struggles.

That I try and I try, but It's never enough

Despite continuous efforts, it seems insufficient.

And I'm not sure I'm gonna make it

Uncertain if I can overcome the challenges.

It's so hard to know why

Expressing the difficulty in understanding why things are the way they are.

When you're not next to mine

The absence of your presence affects my sense of completeness.

Life just doesn't feel right

Life feels incomplete without you.

If you were on my side

If you were supportive, everything might be different.

Maybe you'd understand

If you were on my side, you might comprehend my struggles.

That I tried and I tried, And I'm not sure I'm gonna make it

Repeated emphasis on efforts made, uncertainty about success.
