Lyrics

i prove myself wrong

I have proven myself wrong.

denied reality for far too long

I ignored reality for an extended period.

i shudder to think

I am hesitant or fearful to consider something.

but it's no surprise at all

The outcome is not surprising to me.

i was living in the hope

I used to live with the hope of sharing a certain feeling.

of a feeling to be shared

This feeling was something I desired.

that's all i've ever wanted

All I ever wanted was that feeling.

that's all i've ever dared

This feeling was the only thing I dared to want.

now things have changed

Now, circumstances have changed.

attitudes are dearranged

Attitudes have become disordered or confused.

it seems that it's uncool

It appears that expressing one's feelings is not considered cool.

to say what you feel

There's a societal reluctance to openly express emotions.

once i believed

Once, I believed in certain values.

in respect, trust and loyality

These values include respect, trust, and loyalty.

this was what used to be

These values used to be prevalent.

it always made sence to me

They always made sense to me.

there's nothing left

There's nothing left of those values.

the flame's gone in their eyes

The passion or enthusiasm has disappeared from people's eyes.

no one seems to care

No one seems to care about these values.

or is willing to share

People are unwilling to share these values.

just choose to ignore

People choose to ignore these values.

and comfort in shallow lies

People find comfort in shallow lies.

clutching at straws

Desperately trying to find solutions, even if they are unlikely to succeed.

drowning in their own disguise

Drowning in their own deceit or false appearance.

once i believed

Once, I believed in certain values.

in respect, trust and loyality

These values include respect, trust, and loyalty.

this was what used to be

These values used to be prevalent.

it always made sence to me

They always made sense to me.

once i believed

Once, I believed in other values.

in honor, faith and dignity

These values include honor, faith, and dignity.

this was what used to be

These values used to be prevalent.

but nothing makes sence to me

But now, nothing makes sense to me.

...makes sence to me

Nothing makes sense to me.

i look at you

I observe you.

i look at me

I observe myself.

and hold back all i want to say

I restrain myself from saying what I truly feel.

it's so hard to betray... yourself!

It's difficult to betray oneself.


...so hard

It's incredibly difficult.

...so hard

-

...so hard to betray

It's incredibly difficult to betray oneself.

...myself!

-

once i believed

Once, I believed in myself.

in me!

Now, I question that belief in myself.
