held out
Enduring Love: Holding On Amidst Heartbreak
Lyrics
Let it rush straight to my head
Expressing a desire for intense emotions or experiences to affect the person deeply.
For a second thought I was dead
Temporary confusion or disorientation, possibly due to intense feelings or situations.
Took a while to find my breath Again
Recovery after a challenging or overwhelming experience, regaining composure.
Never fell, fell so hard
Emphasizing the emotional impact of a romantic relationship, with enduring consequences.
For a girl now I got these scars
Physical and emotional wounds resulting from a deep romantic involvement.
She don't want me like she did
Not reciprocating the same level of affection or interest as before.
I held out for the longest time
Persisting in one's emotional investment or commitment over an extended period.
She never changed her mind
Highlighting the lack of change in the other person's feelings despite persistence.
And I won't change mine
Asserting personal resolve and determination to maintain one's emotional stance.
Let it bleed like I knew it would
Allowing emotions to flow freely, acknowledging the inevitability of emotional pain.
All my friends never understood
Expressing the difficulty in explaining or justifying one's attraction to the person.
What I ever saw in her
Questioning the perception of others regarding the attractiveness of the romantic interest.
But I could see in those eyes
Perceiving honesty and authenticity in the eyes of the romantic interest.
A truth there behind the lies
Recognizing a genuine quality beneath apparent falsehoods or challenges.
Something worth fighting for
Finding a meaningful and worthwhile aspect in the romantic relationship worth fighting for.
I held out for the longest time
Persisting in emotional commitment despite challenges or lack of reciprocation.
She never changed her mind
Reiterating the lack of change in the other person's feelings despite persistence.
And I won't change mine
Reaffirming personal commitment to maintaining emotional integrity.
I've still got so much love to give
Expressing an abundance of love still available to offer despite past experiences.
It really didn't have to end
Reflecting on the unnecessary or avoidable nature of the relationship's end.
Let it go I tell myself
Advising oneself to let go of the emotional attachment and move forward.
Put your heart on the shelf
Suggesting a protective measure of guarding one's emotions temporarily.
Try to forget about her
Attempting to consciously forget about the romantic interest.
I try, but it never lasts
Acknowledging the difficulty in maintaining emotional distance and moving on.
Just can't get passed the past
Struggling to overcome or let go of the emotional impact of past experiences.
I wonder if I'll ever will
Pondering the possibility of eventually overcoming the lingering emotional attachments.
I held out for the longest time
Persisting in emotional commitment despite challenges or lack of reciprocation (repeated).
She never changed her mind
Reiterating the lack of change in the other person's feelings despite persistence (repeated).
And I won't change mine
Reaffirming personal commitment to maintaining emotional integrity (repeated).
