Breaking Up Inside
Heartfelt Reflections: Breaking Up Inside by Nathan Fultz
Lyrics
I'm breaking up inside
I am experiencing emotional turmoil within myself.
Yes I'm breaking up inside
Reiteration of internal emotional struggle.
Oh I'm breaking up inside
Continuation of expressing emotional distress.
You are what I need
You, the other person, are essential to me.
Time takes its hold so I’m told
Time has a significant impact, and I acknowledge its influence.
Lies I believed hurt you most
Deception I believed in has hurt you the most.
And I just didn’t try enough
I failed to make sufficient effort.
Life lifts you up lets you down
Life has ups and downs.
All your mistakes find you out
Mistakes catch up with you eventually.
And I don’t want to stay here like this
I don't want to remain in this state of emotional turmoil.
I am breaking up inside
Reiteration of breaking up emotionally.
I can't tell the truth from the lies
Difficulty in distinguishing truth from lies.
You are the only one I have
You are the only person I have.
So tell me what you see in me
Seeking understanding of what the other person sees in the speaker.
'Cause I'm breaking up inside
Repetition of emotional breakdown.
Oh I'm breaking up inside
Continuation of expressing emotional distress.
Yes I'm breaking up inside
Reiteration of internal emotional struggle.
And You are what I need
You, the other person, are crucial to the speaker.
All my regrets remind me
Regrets serve as reminders of the cost paid.
The price that You paid was not free
The sacrifice made was not without a price.
And I can't ever pay You back
The speaker feels unable to repay the kindness received.
Love that You show I don't get
Difficulty in understanding the love shown by the other person.
'Cause You haven't left me just yet
Recognition that the other person has not left yet.
I wanna know that You still love me
Desire for reassurance of continued love from the other person.
I am breaking up inside
Reiteration of emotional breakdown.
I can't tell the truth from the lies
Struggling to discern between truth and lies.
You are the only one I have
You are the speaker's sole source of support.
So tell me what you see in me
Seeking insight into the qualities appreciated by the other person.
You gave me back life
Recognition of a second chance at life provided by the other person.
A chance to rewind
Opportunity to start anew and correct past mistakes.
So I won't throw this all away
Commitment to not squander the given chance.
I am breaking up inside
Reiteration of emotional breakdown.
I can't tell the truth from the lies
Struggling to discern between truth and lies.
You are the only one I have
Dependence on the other person for emotional support.
So tell me what you see in me
Seeking understanding of the qualities admired by the other person.
'Cause I'm breaking up inside
Repetition of emotional turmoil.
Oh I'm breaking up inside
Continuation of expressing emotional distress.
Yes I'm breaking up inside
Reiteration of internal emotional struggle.
And You are what I need
You, the other person, are still essential to the speaker.
