Truth
Decoding Heartbreak: Unraveling the Truth in Sophia Wells' 'Truth'
Lyrics
I made my decision
I have made the decision to leave.
I'm leaving since you've left me too
I'm leaving because you have already left me.
But I can't pretend I don't have any questions for you
I can't pretend not to have questions for you.
Spent three years building this castle
I spent three years building something significant.
Took three minutes to burn down
It took only three minutes for it to be destroyed.
You lit the match with no rhyme or reason
You initiated the destruction without any apparent reason.
I watched it all fall to the ground
I witnessed everything collapsing to the ground.
Made a fool of myself trying
I made a foolish effort in trying to salvage the situation.
At least I went out fighting
Even though I failed, I went down fighting.
It's not even that you're lying
It's not that you're dishonest, but you refuse to share the truth.
You just won't tell me the truth
Your unwillingness to be truthful is the issue.
Is this the end of our story
Is this the conclusion of our shared narrative?
It's all pain and no glory
Our story seems to end with pain and without any glory.
You must've never really known me
You may not have truly understood who I am.
Am I not worth the truth
Am I not deserving of the truth?
We still haven't said it
We haven't explicitly stated it, but it's evident that we're finished.
But I guess it's clear that we're through
The end is clear even if unspoken.
I left all the ashes
I left behind all the remnants of our relationship.
The rubble
The wreckage, the ruins.
Every trace of you
Every reminder of you is gone.
When you start to feel haunted
When guilt sets in, you'll try to absolve yourself.
You'll try to clear your conscience
However, there's nothing left for you to return to.
But there's nothing left to come back to
There's no redemption or reconciliation possible.
Spent three years building this castle
I spent three years building this significant structure.
Took three minutes to burn down
Once again, it took only three minutes for it to be destroyed.
You lit the match with no rhyme or reason
You initiated the destruction without any apparent reason.
I watched it all fall to the ground
I witnessed everything collapsing to the ground.
Made a fool of myself trying
I made a foolish effort in trying to salvage the situation.
At least I went out fighting
Even though I failed, I went down fighting.
It's not even that you're lying
It's not that you're dishonest, but you refuse to share the truth.
You just won't tell me the truth
Your unwillingness to be truthful is the issue.
Is this the end of our story (It's all pain)
Is this the conclusion of our shared narrative? (It's all pain)
It's all pain and no glory
Our story seems to end with pain and without any glory.
You must've never really known me
You may not have truly understood who I am.
Am I not worth the truth
Am I not deserving of the truth?
Am I not worth the truth
