Better Without You
Rising from the Ashes: Embracing Life After Heartbreak
Lyrics
Look upon the sun rise it's so bright that it shines
Reflecting on a bright and vivid sunrise.
We we're happy I thought we we're fine
Initial happiness and the belief that the relationship was fine.
But you chose to go
The partner's decision to leave.
Chose to go
Reiteration of the choice to leave.
Afraid so scared to give one more chance that would have been
Fearful hesitation to provide another chance.
I wanted this but it looked like you found the one
Expressing desire for the relationship, but it seems the partner found someone else.
I won't forget what you did to me
Commitment to remembering the negative actions of the partner.
My life which you have treated so wrong
Acknowledgment of mistreatment in the past.
Has broken into two
The impact of the relationship breakdown, likened to a broken life.
Like the ocean is blue
A metaphor comparing the broken life to the vastness of the ocean.
It is so true
Confirmation of the metaphorical truth in the situation.
One day you'll realize the damage you have done
Anticipation of the partner realizing the harm caused over time.
This peaceful life i will live now that your gone
Expression of finding peace in the absence of the partner.
I'm better without you
Declaration of personal improvement and well-being without the partner.
Take this like a book this is the journey of our end
Comparison of the relationship to a book, emphasizing its end.
I'm sorry that it came down to this
Expressing regret about the situation coming to this point.
But you chose this
Affirmation of the partner's active role in the current state of affairs.
You chose this
Reiteration of the partner's responsibility for the outcome.
Now that life has sent us on our own separate ways
Recognition of the separation and the beginning of individual paths.
Please forget me of who i am to you
A request to be forgotten in the eyes of the partner.
I don't know you anymore
Declaration of a lack of recognition for the partner.
My life which you have treated so wrong
Reiteration of past mistreatment in the relationship.
Has broken into two
Confirmation of life being shattered due to the broken relationship.
Like the ocean is blue
Reiteration of the metaphor comparing life to the vastness of the ocean.
It is so true
Confirmation of the metaphorical truth in the ongoing situation.
One day you'll realize the damage you have done
Anticipation of the partner realizing the harm caused, echoing a similar sentiment from earlier in the song.
This peaceful life i will live now that your gone
Expression of finding peace in the absence of the partner, echoing a similar sentiment from earlier in the song.
I'm better without you
Reiteration of personal improvement and well-being without the partner, echoing a similar sentiment from earlier in the song.
