Regret
Unveiling Regret: A Journey through Heartache and Redemption
Lyrics
How many times are we gonna play the game, thinkin that it's gonna change?
Expressing frustration with repeating patterns in a relationship and the futile hope for change.
I wish I could somehow forget your face
Desire to erase the memory of the person's face, suggesting pain associated with the relationship.
It ain't easy to turn and walk away
Acknowledging the difficulty of leaving a situation despite the emotional toll.
So if I'm nothin to you, everything is everything that you wanted
If the speaker means nothing to the other person, then everything about the relationship is what the other wanted.
How did I let myself go? We've been down this road before, I've seen it
Reflecting on past mistakes and questioning how the speaker allowed themselves to go through similar situations.
I guess by now we should know, but you make it hard to let go
Despite past experiences, it's challenging to let go of the relationship.
How many times are you gonna make me pay, for my feelings that I can't deny?
Expressing frustration at the emotional cost imposed by the other person.
You show me hope then then you take away
The cycle of offering hope and then taking it away, creating emotional turmoil.
Keep me believing, it's somethin in your eyes
The other person's eyes convey something that keeps the speaker believing, despite doubts.
But I'm feelin that anything can change
Belief that change is possible despite conflicting emotions.
Everything is everything that we make it
The quality of the relationship is what the individuals involved make it.
How did I let myself go? We've been down this road before, I've seen it
Reflecting on past mistakes again and the difficulty of breaking free from the repeated cycle.
I guess by now we should know, maybe this time we should leave it all behind
Suggesting that it might be time to end the relationship and move on.
I paid debt, and now I think I understand regret
Realization and understanding of regret after paying a personal cost.
I guess it's time to be a man and face the time that I've spent using you
Acceptance of responsibility as a mature decision to face the consequences of using the other person.
How did I know I'd regret? Oh, I've paid debt, and now I understand regret
Reiteration of understanding regret after paying a personal cost.
It's time to be a man and face all the time that I spent using you
Reaffirming the need to face the consequences and take responsibility for past actions.
How could I know I would regret? I didn't know I was losing you
Expressing surprise and realization about the impending regret for losing the other person.
