Lyrics

Conversations haunt me like the body that wouldn't think.

Conversations linger in my mind, much like the persistent memory of a lifeless body.

If I could I'd take back some things that I have said.

If possible, I would retract certain words I uttered in the past.

I put a lot on you, it was good for sympathy,

I burdened you with my problems, seeking sympathy, but in reality, I was just as flawed.

But the truth is that I was as bad.

The truth is, my actions were not commendable.

When I say nothing, when I do nothing.

There are moments when I remain silent and inactive, yet the thoughts I suppress eventually resurface.

All the things I sit with come flying out.

I carry a multitude of emotions that burst forth unexpectedly.

Try responsibility, not pacifism.

Suggesting embracing responsibility over avoiding conflict (pacifism).

Don't take comfort in that you are damaged, just find a way.

Discouraging finding comfort in one's own damage, instead encouraging finding a solution.

Find a way to release the excess.

Encouraging finding a way to let go of excess baggage.

You'll find yourself better off.

Suggesting that releasing burdens leads to personal improvement.

Jump in. Don't slow down.

Advocating for taking risks and not slowing down in life.

You don't think of me.

Expressing a lack of consideration from someone else.

I won't retract what I've done for her, on behalf of her.

Committing to actions taken for someone, defending those actions on their behalf.

Don't take that away. I won't deny the time of it.

Refusing to relinquish experiences and not denying the impact of time.

Someone said, "Take the past. You're not a reactionary."

Quoting advice to embrace the past without reacting impulsively.

I never had it hard

Denying a personally challenging life experience.

You held that to me

Acknowledging that someone else held a certain standard or expectation.

As a warrant of

Describing a commitment or guarantee.

Perpetual happiness

Associating the commitment with sustained happiness.
