Lyrics
Conflict, confusion, distrust...
Expressing the themes of conflict, confusion, and distrust.
Conflict confusion distrust
Reiterating the central themes of conflict, confusion, and distrust.
You taught me right
Acknowledging the teaching of both right and wrong.
You taught me wrong
Highlighting the contradictory nature of the teachings.
You taught me to always be strong
Being taught to always exhibit strength.
You paved the way
Acknowledging guidance and paving a way in life.
You showed me fear
Experiencing fear as a part of the teachings.
I know now, what wasn't real
Realizing what wasn't real in the teachings.
I saw one thing and heard another
Perceiving conflicting signals, seeing one thing but hearing another.
I was too young to understand
Expressing the lack of understanding due to youth.
I never knew what to believe
Facing a challenge in discerning what to believe.
I feel so deceived
Feeling deceived by the conflicting teachings.
Confusion in my head
Experiencing confusion in one's thoughts.
Don't understand all that you said
Not comprehending everything that was said.
And now I see the light
Realizing the truth or clarity (the light) in certain situations.
It's times like these I realize
Acknowledging realizations during challenging times.
But how can I read these
Questioning the ability to interpret mixed messages.
Mixed messages that you did bring
Referring to conflicting messages brought by someone.
And forgive all the pain you cause
Contemplating forgiveness for the pain caused.
All of the suffering
Enduring suffering caused by the conflicting teachings.
You taught me right
Repetition of being taught both right and wrong.
You taught me wrong
Reiteration of the contradictory nature of teachings.
You taught me to always be strong
Emphasizing the lesson to always be strong.
You paved the way
Acknowledging guidance and paving a way in life.
You showed me fear

Keep my perspective straight...
