Let Me Be
Heartbreak Symphony: The Struggle to Break Free
Lyrics
Well, you told me that you wanted
Addressing a previous statement where the person indicated a desire for the singer to be their chosen one.
Me to be the one
Confirming the request or expectation to be the favored individual.
But all you every wanted was to have some fun
Contrasting the expressed desire for commitment with the actual intention of seeking amusement or enjoyment.
You cheated and you lied
Noting instances of betrayal and dishonesty by the person being addressed.
I hope you're satisfied
Expressing a hope that the person feels content or fulfilled with their actions.
Why won't you let me be
Questioning why the person won't allow the singer to live independently or make their own choices.
Well, I try to walk away but everytime I do
Attempting to leave the situation, but consistently being convinced to return.
You tell me that you're sorry
Receiving apologies and promises of fidelity from the person.
And that you'll be true
Believing the person's assurances and giving them another chance, only to be deceived again.
I take you back again and then
Continuously allowing the person back into the singer's life, followed by repeated dishonesty.
You lie to me again why won't you let me be
Questioning why the person won't allow the singer to be free or independent.
Why don't you set me free
Asking the person why they don't release the singer from this relationship.
Oh, baby, baby, why why won't you let me be
Expressing a plea or desire to be left alone, questioning why the person won't allow the singer independence.
Baby, baby why
Repeating the plea, emphasizing the desire for freedom.
Let me know all I want to know
Asking the person to provide necessary information or reasons for their reluctance to let go.
Why won't you let me go
Questioning why the person is unwilling to allow the singer to depart from the relationship.
I guess that I will always
Accepting an enduring attachment or love for the person despite knowing they are not genuine.
Be in love with you
Recognizing the inevitability of loving the person despite their inability to be truthful.
And yet I know that you're the
Acknowledging the person's inherent nature of being unfaithful or insincere.
Kind that can't be true so let me go away
Pleading to be allowed to leave without being persuaded to stay.
Don't try and make me stay
Requesting not to be convinced or manipulated into staying in the relationship.
Please, won't you let me be
A final plea to be left alone and allowed independence from the relationship.
