Lyrics
Who will believe you now you've told your lies
Expressing doubt about others believing the speaker due to past lies.
If you'd only come to me and said
Regret that the person didn't come for support, admitting struggles.
You couldn't help yourself, instead
Desire for honesty, acknowledgment of inability to resist wrongdoing.
You tell me lies
Reproach for continuing to hear lies despite efforts.
For all our trying still we fall
Acknowledging failures despite efforts to succeed.
We're only human after all
Highlighting human imperfection despite aspirations.
After all is said and done
Reflection on completed actions and decisions.
You are beautiful
Affirmation of the person's beauty despite the challenges.
And I believe in you
Expressing belief in the person despite past issues.
I still believe in you
Reiteration of belief in the person's goodness and potential.
Say you've said goodbye to him
Request to confirm ending a relationship with someone else.
Tell me it's over we could begin again
Proposal to start anew if the current relationship ends.
It's been so easy just to turn away
Reflection on the ease of avoiding problems by turning away.
Pass the blame
Accusing of shifting responsibility and avoiding accountability.
Slowly going insane
Describing a gradual descent into madness or emotional turmoil.
For all our trying still we fall
Acknowledging continued failures despite efforts to succeed.
We're only human after all
Emphasizing shared human vulnerability despite aspirations.
After all is said and done
Reflecting on completed actions and decisions.
You're still the one
Affirmation that despite everything, the person is still significant.
They say that you're always the last to know
Indicating a common saying that the speaker is the last to know.
You had me really fooled
Expressing surprise or disappointment at being deceived.
There I was telling everyone I know
Narrating past actions of proclaiming happiness with the person.
How happy we were
Reflecting on past happiness and a potential contrast with reality.
For all our trying still we fall
Acknowledging continued failures despite efforts to succeed.
We're only human after all.
Emphasizing shared human vulnerability despite aspirations.
