Lyrics
I don't think you're as worried about me
I doubt your genuine concern for me
As you like to say you are
You claim to care more than you actually do
It's the thought that counts
Emphasizing the importance of intention
That's what you tell yourself
You console yourself with the idea that good intentions matter
And I guess that's how you justify
Justifying questionable actions
All those things you do, things you made me do
Referring to negative influence and manipulation
All the things you left unexplained
Unexplained actions or decisions
But I guess you hoped I'd figure them out
Hoping the person affected understands with time
In my own time
Allowing the affected person to comprehend at their pace
I hope that my mom was wrong all along about there being a heaven
Expressing skepticism about the existence of heaven
But I also somehow hope that she still ends up there
Paradoxical hope that the mother reaches heaven despite skepticism
We all find our own way to pray for the people we don't wanna see suffer
Various ways people pray for those they care about
Even though we already know that no one's listening
Suggesting a belief that prayers may go unheard
I don't think you're as worried about me as I know you would've been
You're not as concerned as you would've been with full knowledge
If you'd known my friends and the full extent of what I lead you to believe
The speaker misled you about their friends and actions
And I know it doesn't matter anymore and I know that
Past actions are irrelevant, acknowledging the futility of repetition
If we did it all again it wouldn't solve anything
Repeating the past wouldn't change anything
All I want to know is if it hurt you less that the truth would
Curiosity about whether the truth would have hurt less
I hope that my mom was wrong all along about there being a heaven
Reiterating skepticism about heaven's existence
But I also somehow hope that she still ends up there
Paradoxical hope that the mother reaches heaven despite skepticism (repeated)
We all find our own way to pray for the people we don't wanna see suffer
Various ways people pray for those they care about (repeated)
Even though we already know that no one's listening
Suggesting a belief that prayers may go unheard (repeated)
It doesn't matter anymore and I know that
Acknowledging the irrelevance of past actions (repeated)
If we did it all again it wouldn't solve anything
Repeating the past wouldn't change anything (repeated)
I hope that my mom was wrong all along about there being a heaven
Reiterating skepticism about heaven's existence (repeated)
But I also somehow hope that she still ends up there
Paradoxical hope that the mother reaches heaven despite skepticism (repeated)
We all find our own way to pray for the people we don't wanna see suffer
Various ways people pray for those they care about (repeated)
Even though we already know that no one's listening
Suggesting a belief that prayers may go unheard (repeated)
