Pluto
Heavenly Struggles: Unveiling the Emotional Journey in 'Pluto' by To Octavia
Lyrics
She looks like heaven in this hell
Describing the person as a positive presence in a difficult situation.
You know I know her oh so well
Expressing familiarity and understanding of the person.
Inside her mind she fights her wars
Highlighting inner struggles and battles within the person.
I'm sorry that I can't be yours
Apologizing for an inability to be in a romantic relationship.
With every breath I take, you seem to suffocate
Feeling smothered or overwhelmed in the relationship.
We're counting my mistakes
Reflecting on past mistakes and acknowledging them.
With every word I mind to make
Being cautious about the words spoken, aware of their impact.
I see her heart begin to break
Observing the emotional pain experienced by the person.
With every breath I dare to take, you seem to suffocate
Reiterating the sense of suffocation in the relationship.
I may have been lying to you my dear
Admitting to dishonesty in the past.
When I told you that I would always be here
Acknowledging a commitment made but expressing doubt.
I'm still here
Reassuring the presence despite challenges.
And I won't ever let those scars of yours reappear
Promising to prevent emotional wounds from reopening.
I hope you smile soon again
Wishing for the person's happiness despite difficulties.
No warning
Emphasizing an unexpected or sudden event.
In the morning
Referring to a difficult time in the morning.
I didn't hear you when you called me
Not hearing a call for help or communication.
I didn't hear you say "fuck"
Not hearing explicit frustration or anger expressed.
Why is this happening?
Expressing confusion and questioning the situation.
You wanted more
Acknowledging the other person's desire for more in the relationship.
Then I found you bleeding on the bathroom floor
Discovering the person in a distressed state.
This isn't you
Denying that the distressed state reflects the person's true self.
Because of me
Attributing incompleteness and emotional turmoil to personal actions.
I left you so incomplete
Expressing regret for leaving the person emotionally unfulfilled.
I never imagined you'd end up like this
Expressing surprise at the person's current situation.
You will know in time that it's not me you miss
Suggesting that the person will realize they miss someone else over time.
I never imagined we'd end up like this
Expressing unexpected and undesirable relationship outcomes.
I know it's not me you miss
Acknowledging that the person may not miss the speaker.
I may have been lying to you my dear
Repeating a previous admission of dishonesty in commitment.
When I told you that I would always be here
Reiterating the enduring presence and commitment.
I'm still here
Reaffirming the commitment to preventing emotional scars.
And I won't ever let those scars of yours reappear
Committing to preserving emotional well-being.
I may have been lying to you my dear
Repeating a previous admission of dishonesty in commitment.
When I told you that I would always be here
Reiterating the enduring presence and commitment.
I'm still here
Reaffirming the commitment to preventing emotional scars.
And I won't ever let those scars of yours reappear
Committing to preserving emotional well-being.
With every breath I take, you seem to suffocate
Echoing the theme of feeling suffocated in the relationship.
We're counting my mistakes
Reflecting on and counting past mistakes.
