Lyrics

I can't close my eyes

I am unable to avoid confronting a situation or reality.

I can't shut my eyes to you

I cannot ignore or turn away from you.

I can't close my eyes

Reiteration of the difficulty in avoiding or escaping a situation.

I won't shed a tear for you

I will not cry for you this time.

Not this time

Emphasizing the determination not to be emotionally affected in the current situation.


No matter how hard I try

Despite efforts, I cannot sever emotional connections.

I break all the ties

I willingly break all emotional bonds or connections.

Heartbreak is forever

Expressing a belief that heartbreak is a lasting and perpetual experience.

Land of the lost

Metaphorically referencing a state of confusion or emptiness.

I found myself in nothing

Feeling lost and devoid of purpose or identity.

This time

Reiteration of the determination not to be emotionally affected in the current situation.

Promises broken

Past commitments or assurances have been violated.

Find me clutching to you

In difficult times, seeking support or holding onto someone or something.

For something

Desiring something meaningful or significant.

Something that you're not

Recognizing that the sought-after thing is not authentic or genuine.


Believing in what you say

Expressing skepticism about the truthfulness of spoken words.

Makes me lie awake at night

Truth causes sleepless nights when believed in.

The truth is not what scares me

Fear does not come from the truth itself, but from the necessity to lie.

It's why you have to lie

Questioning the constant need to be untruthful.

All the time

Highlighting the frequency of dishonesty.


Heartbreak is forever

Belief that heartbreak is an enduring and perpetual experience.

I found myself with nothing to believe in

Discovering oneself with a lack of faith or trust in anything.

This time

Reiteration of the determination not to be emotionally affected in the current situation.

The promise is broken finally

A commitment or assurance has been definitively violated.

Clutching you for something

Seeking support or holding onto someone or something persistently.

All the time

Highlighting the perpetual nature of seeking support or holding on.


I can't close my eyes

Reiteration of the difficulty in avoiding or escaping a situation.

I can't shut my eyes to you

I cannot ignore or turn away from you.

I can't close my eyes

Reiteration of the difficulty in avoiding or escaping a situation.

I won't shed

Interruption or break, possibly indicating an emotional pause or hesitation.


Not this time

Emphasizing the determination not to be emotionally affected in the current situation.


Cause heartbreak is forever

Reiteration of the belief that heartbreak is a lasting and perpetual experience.

Heartbreak is forever

Repetition for emphasis on the enduring nature of heartbreak.

Heartbreak is forever

-

Heartbreak is forever

-

Heartbreak is forever

-

But nothing lasts forever.

Nothing, including pain or heartbreak, lasts indefinitely.
