Wish We Made It
Wish We Made It: Navigating Heartbreak with Tom Featherstone
Lyrics
I'm not gonna say I miss you
I won't express that I miss you
I'm not gonna say that
Reiteration of not expressing missing someone
I'm not gonna say I'm over it
I won't claim to be completely over the situation
I'm not gonna lie to you
Commitment not to deceive or lie about feelings
I won't act like I'm alright
I won't pretend to be okay
I hope you don't expect I would
Not expecting understanding or approval for feeling hurt
I know it's what you wanted
Acknowledging that the separation is desired by the other person
But I don't think I can do friends
Expressing difficulty in maintaining a friendship
No, I don't think I can do friends
Reiteration of the difficulty in being friends
I wish we made it, I hoped we did
Expressing a desire for the relationship to have succeeded
I can't contain it, I can't leave it
Feeling unable to control emotions, unable to let go
I wish we made it,
Repetition of the wish for the relationship to have worked
Guess that's got nothing to do with you
Indicating that the wish is unrelated to the other person
I won't expect you to notice
Not anticipating the other person to notice the pain
I can't expect that from you
Acknowledging the lack of expectation for understanding
I won't beg for attention
Declining to seek attention or validation
No, I'm not gonna give that to you
Refusing to give attention or validation in return
I wish we made it, I hoped we did
Reiteration of the desire for a successful relationship
I can't contain it, I can't leave it
Continued struggle to control emotions and move on
I wish we made it,
Reiteration of the wish for relationship success
Guess that's got nothing to do with you
Stating that the wish has nothing to do with the other person
I wished we made it, I hoped we did
Repetition of the desire for a successful relationship
I can't contain it, I can't leave it
Continued struggle with emotions and inability to move on
I wish we made it
Reiteration of the wish for relationship success
Guess that's got nothing to do with you
Reaffirming that the wish has nothing to do with the other person
Now I've got nothing to do with you
Concluding that there is no connection or involvement with the other person
