Come Clean
Unveiling Hidden Demons: The Painful Confession in 'Come Clean'
Lyrics
I'd better leave now
I feel the need to leave the current situation.
It's gone too far I've hurt too deep
Things have escalated too much, causing significant emotional pain.
And I'm sure the wound will scar
I expect the emotional damage to leave lasting scars.
And in the morning
The following morning brings confusion and uncertainty.
All is not clear
Clarity is lacking in understanding the situation.
I try to see through hazy eyes
Attempting to understand despite unclear thoughts and emotions.
All the thoughts I fear
Facing and confronting feared thoughts.
What did I do?
Expressing regret and questioning past actions.
What did I say?
Reflecting on words spoken and actions taken.
I should have left you far away
Regretting not distancing oneself earlier.
The reason reason cannot be found
The cause cannot be identified.
It hurts to think about times when I've been down
Painful reflections on past difficult times.
When I can think again
When I regain clarity of thought.
And I can see
Recognizing the hidden foolishness.
The foolishness I hide in vain
Unsuccessfully concealing regrettable actions.
Has not come clean
The truth has not been fully revealed.
The seams have torn once more
More damage has occurred in the relationship.
I can't hold back I make a good excuse
Unable to restrain from justifying mistakes.
To grip the feelings that I lack
Creating excuses to suppress emotions.
If you could see yourself right now
Imagining the other person's current state.
What would you say?
Wondering how the person would react.
And you want to preach a sermon
Criticizing the other person's moralizing.
Every day,
Observing a routine of deception.
You drink another drink see how you lie
Consuming alcohol to cope with lies.
It gives you courage and make you cry
Alcohol provides false courage and induces tears.
The world I see reflects on me
The world around me reflects my struggles.
Through my eyes my demise
My downfall is evident through my perspective.
