Things I Gave to You
Unveiling Hearts: A Soul's Struggle in 'Things I Gave to You'
Lyrics
I know there's something wrong
I acknowledge that something is not right.
But I just look away
Instead of confronting the issue, I choose to ignore it.
I look at all the things
I examine all the obstacles in my life.
Standing in my way
There are things blocking my path.
And I know that all the reasons
I understand that the reasons for these obstacles are unclear.
Are not clear
It seems like I may have lost faith in someone (possibly the listener).
I guess you think I've lost my faith in you
There is a perception that I doubt or question your intentions.
Baby am I being selfish and unfair
I wonder if my actions are self-centered and unjust.
By taking back the things I gave to you
I am reclaiming things I previously gave to you.
I know that in your heart it's true
I believe that deep down, you genuinely care for my well-being.
You want what's best for me
You desire what is best for me.
And in my heart
There is a heartfelt sentiment within me.
I want
My desire is...
In my heart
...in my heart...
I want
...I want...
What's best for you
...what's best for you.
I never meant to push you away
I never intended to distance you from me.
I only wanted you to see
I simply wanted you to understand.
I only ever wanted to do right by you
My sole intention was always to act morally towards you.
And I wanted you to do right by me
I expected reciprocal moral actions from you.
By giving back the things I gave to you
Now, I'm reciprocating by taking back what I gave.
I know that in your heart you believe
I trust that, in your heart, you believe...
That I want what's best for you
...that I desire what's best for you.
So I won't lie
I won't deceive or pretend.
And say that
I won't falsely claim...
I won't lie
...that I won't deceive.
And say that
I won't falsely claim...
It's me
...that the issue lies with me.
