Lyrics
I’ve been waiting
I have been patiently anticipating something.
For so long
This waiting has been for an extended period.
It simply gets me
It deeply affects me emotionally.
When I’m alone
This emotional impact is more pronounced when I am by myself.
And now that you’re gone
Now that you have departed.
You left me behind
You have left me behind.
Laying broken in pieces
I am emotionally devastated and in disarray.
I feel shattered, I am shattered
I feel completely broken into pieces, and my emotional state is shattered.
Shattered
Emphasizing the emotional devastation by repeating the word "Shattered."
You pretended like nothing happened
You acted as if nothing significant occurred.
How do you think that made me feel?
Expressing the emotional impact of the other person's actions on the speaker.
And you said we don't need to cry anymore
You assured that there's no need for tears.
But i can't seem to stop the tears
Despite the reassurance, the speaker is unable to stop crying.
I’ve been waiting
Reiteration of the prolonged waiting.
For so long
Continuation of the theme of extended anticipation.
It simply gets me
The waiting continues to have a deep emotional impact.
When I’m alone
Similar to line 4, the emotional impact is felt more strongly when alone.
Laying broken in pieces
Repeating the image of being broken into pieces.
I feel shattered, I am shattered
Restating the emotional state of feeling shattered.
Shattered.
Reiteration of the intense emotional devastation with the word "Shattered."
