Broken
Embracing Brokenness: A Tale of Resilience and Growth
Lyrics
Can we just stop the pointing fingers
Expressing a desire to end accusations and blame.
Tell me when will you realize
Questioning when the other person will understand a certain truth.
I never wanted to end up strangers
Reflecting on not intending to become strangers.
I just wanted to make it right
Expressing a wish to make things right.
Cause pushing and pulling is all that we did
Describing a relationship marked by conflict and tension.
We were pushing up daisies to see who would win
Using the metaphor of "pushing up daisies" to illustrate the intensity of the conflict.
It's mostly my fault because I let it go
Admitting responsibility for the situation and letting go.
You wanted it faster but I took it slow
Highlighting a difference in pacing preferences between the individuals involved.
Broken
Stating the condition of being broken.
But we feel no pain
Emphasizing the absence of pain despite the brokenness.
Broken
Reiterating the broken state with no associated pain.
But we feel no
Continuing to express the absence of pain despite being broken.
Let it bleed cause I learn from the pain
Choosing to let emotions bleed and learning from the pain.
Another Saturday spent with out you
Describing a Saturday spent without the other person.
Another passenger by my side
Mentioning the presence of another person as a passenger.
We can drive all night if we want to
Offering options to spend time together, possibly on the road or in bed.
Or we can lay in my bed all night
Suggesting an alternative of spending the night together in bed.

That's the way it should

That's the way it should
