Faith
Struggling for Faith: Broken Hearts and Unfulfilled Promises
Lyrics
When I got here, you were gone
Expresses a sense of arrival and finding the other person absent.
I was searching for light in the darkness that you came from
Describes a search for positivity or hope in a difficult situation.
When you got out, and on your way
Indicates the person's departure and the speaker's emotional state.
I was broken in pieces and stranded with nothing to say
Highlights the emotional aftermath of the other person's absence.
Faith, couldn't we carry on
Poses a question about continuing despite difficulties, using "faith" as a theme.
Turns out I was stronger than you
Reveals the speaker's unexpected strength in comparison to the other person.
But it was not that strong
Acknowledges that the speaker's strength was not overwhelmingly powerful.
Faith, shouldn't we see it through
Asks about persisting in the relationship despite challenges.
Somehow I was not the one, neither were you
Conveys a sense of mutual failure or inability to be the right partner.
When I gave in to your demands
Recalls a moment of yielding to the other person's wishes or demands.
I put what was left of my heart right here into your hands
Describes the vulnerability of entrusting the remaining fragments of the speaker's heart to the other person.
When we were free, the world was ours
Reflects on a time when both individuals felt liberated and shared a world.
And we took every chance we could get
Reminisces about taking opportunities together as they pursued their dreams.
As we followed the stars
Symbolizes pursuing aspirations together by following the metaphorical stars.
Faith, couldn't we carry on
Reiterates the question of whether the relationship can continue with faith.
Turns out I was stronger than you
