Embracing Truth: Confronting Pain and Pride
Be the first to rate this song

Lyrics

Let it die

Expressing a desire for something to end or cease


Sick of all the promises you’ve broken

Frustration with unfulfilled promises

You break them all

Accusation of consistently breaking promises

I get all the blame and you’re the victim

Feeling unfairly blamed while the other person plays the victim

You sell a lie

Accusation of promoting falsehoods


How long will you hold on

Questioning the duration of holding onto a situation

Why can’t I let it go

Expressing difficulty in letting go of the situation

Find a way to escape all the hate

Desire to find a way to escape negativity and animosity


If we only can get over

Expressing a hypothetical scenario of overcoming difficulties

All the pain inside

Desire to move past internal pain

All the wasted pride

Acknowledging wasted pride

If we only, if we only

Expressing a wish for a better outcome

Could just face the truth

Desire for facing and accepting the truth

Give up the fight and let it die

Suggesting surrendering in a conflict for resolution


Tell me why you drown me with your silence

Questioning why there is silence and emotional suffocation

You make me sick

Expressing disgust or disappointment in someone's actions

Tell me why I’m always craving violence

Questioning personal tendencies towards violence

Tell me why

Repetition of the question, emphasizing confusion or seeking clarification


How long will you hold on

Repetition of questioning the duration of holding onto a situation

Why can’t I let it go

Reiteration of the struggle to let go

Find a way to escape all the hate

Reiteration of the desire to escape negativity


If we only can get over

Reiteration of the hypothetical scenario of overcoming difficulties

All the pain inside

Reiteration of the desire to move past internal pain

All the wasted pride

Reiteration of acknowledging wasted pride

If we only, if we only

Reiteration of the wish for a better outcome

Could just face the truth

Reiteration of the desire for facing and accepting the truth

Give up the fight and let it die

Reiteration of suggesting surrendering in a conflict for resolution


Let it die

Reiteration of the expression to let something end or cease


I’m done with this

Strong emphasis on being done with a situation or relationship

I’m done with this

-

I’m done with this

-

If we only can get over

Repetition of the desire for resolution and a better future

All the pain inside

-

All the wasted pride

-

If we only, if we only

-

Could just face the truth

-

Give up the fight and let it die

-

If we only can get over

Continued repetition of the desire for resolution and a better future

All the pain inside

-

All the wasted pride

-

If we only, if we only

-

Could just face the truth

-

Give up the fight and let it die

-

Let it die

Final emphasis on letting something end or cease

Let it die
