Lovely
Navigating Love's Maze: A Poignant Tale by Painted Pillars
Lyrics
Why would someone like me I don't like myself
Expressing self-dislike and questioning why someone would like the speaker.
And I guess for someone like me there won't be no help from
Anticipating no assistance or support from others due to self-perceived issues.
Others because others, well they do not know
Not expecting understanding from others as they don't comprehend the speaker's self-awareness.
The way I know myself because I really don't
Highlighting a gap between self-perception and how others perceive the speaker.
Well it's true
Acknowledging a truth about the speaker.
What they say
Reflecting on common sayings about love.
Love is such a lovely cliché
Describing love as a cliché.
Ever since I met her that day
Recalling a positive experience when troubles disappeared after meeting someone.
All my troubles melted away
Expressing the positive impact of love on the speaker's life.
Oh no
Indicating a negative change in the speaker's situation.
Now the trouble's back and it's because of her
Attributing renewed troubles to the person introduced earlier.
She did the thing I dreaded most and it could not be worse I
Revealing a feared action by the person causing distress.
Can't believe she's done it and I hate to say that
Expressing disbelief and frustration at the person's actions.
Before we worked it out she left and went away
Noting the departure of the person before resolving issues.
Well it's true
Reiterating the cliché nature of love.
What they say
Reflecting on the positive impact of love despite its clichés.
Love is such a lovely cliché
Repeating the idea that love is a cliché.
Ever since she left me that day
Recalling the departure of the person and its impact on the speaker.
All I wish she is would've stayed
Expressing a wish for the person to have stayed.
Oh no
Reacting to the departure of the person with concern or regret.
Why would someone like me I don't like myself
Repeating the sentiment of self-dislike and questioning why someone would like the speaker.
And I guess for someone like me there won't be no help from
Anticipating no assistance or support from others due to self-perceived issues (repeated).
