Casualty of You
Love's Fallout: A Soul Ravaged by Compulsion
Lyrics
How could I tolerate looking you in the eyes
Feeling unable to face you directly, possibly due to changes in your character or behavior.
How you've evolved, no tears at heart
Noticing a lack of emotional vulnerability or sadness in your heart.
It's not fair, shouldn't be like this
Expressing the injustice or undesirability of the current situation.
You shouldn't be so compulsed
Advising against being overly driven or obsessed with something.
I know, you should be more awkward
Suggesting a preference for a more awkward or genuine demeanor.
I hate you for bringing this up
Expressing resentment for bringing up a topic that triggers conflicting emotions.
Making me feel what I know just isn't true
Feeling conflicted emotions, being made to feel something known to be false.
You've ruined me, you're a terrorist
Accusing the person of causing harm and describing the emotional impact as terrorism.
I'm a casualty of you
Identifying oneself as a casualty, implying emotional damage caused by the person.
Your sister called today, I heard the phone ring
Recounting a phone call from the person's sister and expressing reluctance to respond.
Really, why should I answer? She's so critical
Describing the sister as critical and questioning the necessity of answering her call.
I wasn't surprised to hear a single word message
Anticipating a negative message and setting the stage for a brief, impactful communication.
Just said, "Stop"
Reporting the content of the message received, a simple command to "Stop."
You stole something from me, can't say what
Alleging the theft of something important without specifying, leading to a sense of loss.
Just know it's gone now, everything is wrong
Expressing a general feeling of everything being wrong as a consequence of the perceived theft.
Everything is wrong, everything is wrong
Reiteration of the sentiment that everything is wrong, emphasizing the impact of the situation.
I'm a casualty of you
Reaffirming the self-identification as a casualty, summarizing the emotional toll of the relationship.
