Terrified
Eternal Echoes: Navigating Love's Broken Paths
Lyrics
Chose not to head the warning
Choosing to ignore warnings or advice
Can't say we did not know
Acknowledging prior knowledge
This broken past we're mourning will never let us go
Acknowledging a lingering and unresolvable past
Can't come back from this
Irreversible consequences, no turning back
Never let you win
Refusing to allow the other person to succeed
Promises made for breaking
Mention of promises that are destined to be broken
We hide the evidence
Concealing evidence of actions or mistakes
Our lives now for the taking
Our lives are vulnerable and can be taken away
We push it to the edge
Pursuing risky behavior or situations
Can't come back from this
Reiterating the irreversible nature of the situation
Never let you win
Reaffirming the determination not to let the other person win
I never wanted to be the one to make you say goodbye, tell me lies
Reluctance to be the cause of saying goodbye, seeking deception
And make my heart beat again
Desire for reconciliation and healing
Now that it's over I can't move on without you by my side, terrified
Difficulty moving on without the other person, feeling terrified
Show me the way to begin
Seeking guidance on how to start anew
We find new ways to hide it
Finding new ways to conceal the truth
Elusive discipline
Struggling with self-control or restraint
We cover tracks so blinded
Blindly covering up mistakes
These actions we defend
Defending questionable actions
Can't come back from this
Reiterating the irreversibility and determination not to lose
Never let you win
Commitment to not letting the other person win
This path is never ending
Expressing the endless nature of a problematic path
We lie awake and hope
Lying awake, possibly in worry or anticipation
And with the best intentions
Actions driven by good intentions, yet facing consequences
We reap what we have sown
Experiencing the outcomes of one's actions
Can't come back from this
Reiterating the irreversible nature and determination
Never let you win
Reaffirming the commitment not to let the other person win
I never wanted to be the one to make you say goodbye, tell me lies
Reluctance to be the cause of saying goodbye, seeking deception (repeated)
And make my heart beat again
Desire for reconciliation and healing (repeated)
Now that it's over I can't move on without you by my side, terrified
Difficulty moving on without the other person, feeling terrified (repeated)
Show me the way to begin
Seeking guidance on how to start anew (repeated)
And when I dream at night
Nightmares featuring the other person's negative influence
Your darkness burns so bright
The impact of the other person's negativity is intense
It's all I am
Identifying with the darkness as a significant part of oneself
Keep moving towards the light
Encouraging oneself to move towards positivity
Again I've lost this fight
Continued failure in overcoming challenges
I'll never win, yeah
Acknowledging a recurring pattern of losing
I never wanted to be the one to make you say goodbye, tell me lies
Reluctance to be the cause of saying goodbye, seeking deception (repeated)
And make my heart beat again
Desire for reconciliation and healing (repeated)
Now that it's over I can't move on without you by my side, terrified
Difficulty moving on without the other person, feeling terrified (repeated)
Show me the way to begin
Seeking guidance on how to start anew (repeated)
Can't come back from this
Reiterating the irreversible nature and determination
Never let you win
Reaffirming the commitment not to let the other person win
Can't come back from this
Reiterating the irreversible nature and determination (repeated)
Never let you win
Reaffirming the commitment not to let the other person win (repeated)
