Lyrics

This plan is only surface

This plan is only superficial or apparent.

And I do not deserve this.

The speaker feels undeserving of a situation or treatment.

I'm wondering if I'll withstand

The speaker is uncertain if they can endure or withstand a challenging situation.

To stand alone and stand to scream to the world:

The speaker contemplates standing alone and expressing their frustration to the world.

I'm through and now I've come to mend

The speaker declares that they are done and now seek to heal.

These wounds that were gored by you through all of them

The wounds inflicted by someone else need mending.


It's too sad that I've got to mediate these faulty sides of you

The speaker expresses sadness at having to mediate or resolve the flaws in the other person.

And I'm wondering whatever did I do

The speaker wonders what they did to deserve this situation.

The only reason that I still remain to you

The only reason the speaker remains in the relationship is their tendency to repeat excuses.

Is I go on repeating the excuse

The speaker acknowledges repeatedly using excuses as a coping mechanism.


This plan is only surface

The plan or situation is revealed again to be only surface-level or superficial.

Maybe I'm lost in purpose

The speaker contemplates being lost in their sense of purpose.

I've stood alone too many days

The speaker has spent too many days standing alone and awaits the right moment to express themselves to the world.

And I'm waiting for my day to say to the world

(Repetition of expressing standing alone and waiting)

Come through with all those promise plans

The speaker expects the fulfillment of promises made in the past.

Those year are lost and you've forgotten them

Years have passed, and those promises are now forgotten.


It's too sad

The situation is described as excessively sad.

It's too sad

(Repetition of excessive sadness)


What if this had not happened?

The speaker ponders an alternate reality where the unfortunate event did not occur.

What if she hadn't gone?

If she hadn't left, things might be different.

What if this had not happened?

(Repetition of pondering alternate scenarios)

She never would have gone

If the event hadn't occurred, she wouldn't have left.


Well I wonder if the same

The speaker wonders if things could have been different.

Things could be any other way

The speaker contemplates the possibility of an alternative outcome.

Still I don't deserve this

The speaker reiterates the feeling of not deserving the current situation.

I've stood alone too long to say

The speaker has stood alone for too long to articulate their feelings.
