Lyrics

I was told it was my destiny

I was informed that it was my predetermined fate.

How wrong could people be?

Expressing skepticism about the accuracy of others' beliefs.

I even started to believe it

I started to accept and trust in this proclaimed destiny.

Until the truth came crashing down

My confidence in this destiny shattered when confronted with the harsh reality.


I didn't have high expectations

I didn't set high expectations for myself.

But there's only one way to fall

Despite low expectations, experiencing inevitable setbacks.

And getting back up is harder and harder

Recovery becomes increasingly difficult after each fall.

And harder

The process of getting back up becomes progressively more challenging.


Hiding your emotions won't help you

Suppressing emotions won't offer a solution.

I think my weakness was showing mine

Realizing that revealing vulnerability might have been my mistake.

Your actions went from voice to hand

Actions transitioned from verbal expressions to physical ones.

Was I supposed to deal with them?

Questioning how I was supposed to cope with such actions.


I was told it's breaking me

I was informed that this situation is causing my breakdown.

I was told

Reiteration of being told about the impact on oneself.


I was told it was my destiny

Repeating the earlier notion that it was my destiny.

How wrong could people be?

Reiterating skepticism about the accuracy of others' beliefs.


We're drifting apart

We are growing distant from each other.

I was too blind to see

Realizing too late that I was oblivious to the growing distance.

I was told

Reiteration of being told.

I was

Emphasizing the past information received.
