The Exception
Unveiling Internal Conflicts
Lyrics
What’s the matter with you?
Expressing concern or frustration about someone's behavior or attitude.
Ya never wanna discuss anything difficult
Criticizing a lack of willingness to engage in challenging conversations.
But the fella we knew
Referring to a person from the past, highlighting a change in their character.
Might never know that his own ambivalence
Suggesting that the person may not be aware of their own indecision.
Was a lie that he told to himself in the moment, only
Pointing out self-deception, where the person lied to themselves momentarily.
To find that he might have been right to begin with and mostly
Reflecting on the possibility that the person was initially correct in their stance.
I denied I
Admitting to a previous denial of making an exception for someone.
Ever made an exception for you
Stating the denial of making an exception for the person in question.
Oh but I might’a
Suggesting a potential willingness to make an exception if known earlier.
If I’d a have known you’d have wanted to
Expressing regret for not making an exception if the person desired it.
Did ya find yourself dreaming maybe ya got
Asking if the person has daydreamed about missed opportunities or possibilities.
Hung up on a what could have been
Speculating on lingering thoughts about what could have been.
And ya might have
Indicating that the person may have come to a realization.
Realised that
Highlighting a moment of understanding or clarity.
Enough is Enough
Stating that a limit has been reached, emphasizing the need for change.
Enough is Enough
Reiterating the idea that a situation has become intolerable.
What’s the matter with me?
Pondering personal shortcomings or issues.
I go ballistic shouldn’t have ever said
Expressing anger or frustration, acknowledging a mistake in expressing desires.
That I want ya to leave
Admitting a wish for the person to leave, possibly regretting the statement.
Why do I say those things I never meant
Questioning the reasons behind saying things that were not meant.
If a truce is depending on somebody rolling over
Discussing the importance of compromise in resolving conflicts.
Then truthfully not to be obstinate I should have told ya
Recognizing the need for honesty rather than stubbornness in communication.
