Lyrics

You've got something to say to me, I know

You have something to communicate to me, and I am aware of it.

I see you running away from me to him

I observe you avoiding me and seeking solace with someone else.

You shouldn't kick a man when he's down

It's not advisable to harm someone when they are already facing difficulties.

But you didn't know I was on the ground

You were unaware that I was already in a challenging situation.


Nothing happens the way I want, I know

Things don't unfold as I wish them to.

And something better will come along, I'm told

I am told that something better will eventually happen.

Can't see the future for what it could be

It's challenging to envision the future for what it might become.

All I see is I'm not changing

All I can perceive is that I am not undergoing any positive transformation.


Back down and step aside

Retreat and make way for others; advice is to overlook certain issues.

They tell me let it slide

I am urged to let things go without reacting strongly.

I can't do anything

Feeling powerless, unable to take any action.

I won't just push you away

I won't simply distance myself from you; I will not reject you outright.


I guess you're happy the way that this turned out

Seemingly, you are content with the way circumstances have unfolded.

All of your sorrow you think you'll be without

You believe you can escape all the pain and sadness.

It's been a struggle to watch you fade away

It's been difficult witnessing your decline.

But I'm still here, my heart's still beating

Despite the challenges, I remain present, and my heart continues to beat.


Back down and step aside

Similar to line 11, suggesting the need to step back and not confront.

They tell me let it slide

Reiterates the advice to let things pass without strong reactions.

I can't do anything

Expressing the feeling of helplessness and inability to act.

I won't just push you away

I won't completely distance myself from you; I won't outright reject you.


I watched you walk away

I observed you leaving, and the uncertainty of whether things will be okay.

Will it ever be okay?

Raising the question of whether the situation will eventually improve.


Back down and step aside

Repetition of the idea to step back and not engage in confrontation.

They tell me let it slide

Reiterates the advice to let things pass without strong reactions.

I can't do anything

Expressing the feeling of helplessness and inability to act.

I won't just push you away

I won't completely distance myself from you; I won't outright reject you.


You will be running away from him and then

You will distance yourself from the other person, and eventually, you'll desire a connection with me again.

You know you'll want to fall into me again

Anticipating that you will realize the need to return to me.

It's just a matter of time before you see

It's just a matter of time before you recognize that I am here and have been patiently waiting.

That I am here, and I've been waiting

Emphasizes the enduring presence and patient waiting for a connection to be reestablished.
