Unraveling Heartache: Young Natives' Melodic Reflections
Lyrics
I got your text last night
Received your message last night
I didn't reply because I couldn't lie
Didn't respond because I couldn't tell a lie
And say what was on my mind
Felt unable to express my true thoughts
Because baby I knew that it would make you cry
Knew it would cause you to cry
And oh
Expressing regret or sorrow
I never wanted it to be like this no no
Didn't desire the situation to unfold this way
But I guess swear better off now
Believe it might be better now despite the pain
Waking up to the morning light
Starting the day after a difficult situation
Never thought that I'd see your face again
Surprised to encounter you again
For something so wrong it's right
Something wrong that feels right
How did we end up like this
Questioning how the relationship deteriorated
Open hearts lead to open eyes
Being emotionally vulnerable leads to understanding
We can find where the problem began
Searching for the origin of the issue
But baby we just can't fight
Unable to prevent the conflict
How did we end up like this
Continuing to ponder how the relationship soured
I heard what you just tried
Acknowledging hearing your attempt to hurt me emotionally
Tearing my heart out from the inside
Sensing pain inflicted internally
I guess its my fault this time
Taking responsibility for the current state of affairs
For what I put you through with all those lonely nights
Understanding the suffering caused during lonely times
And oh oh oh
Expressing regret and sorrow
I never wanted it to be like this no no
Unwillingness for the situation to evolve this way
But I guess were better off now
Perceiving potential improvement despite the pain
Waking up to the morning light
Starting a new day after the fallout
Never thought that I'd see your face again
Surprised by the unexpected encounter
For something so wrong it's right
Something that feels inherently wrong but seems right
How did we end up like this
Continued questioning of how things went awry
Open hearts lead to open eyes
Being emotionally vulnerable leads to understanding
We can find where the problem began
Searching for the root cause of the problem
But baby we just can't fight
Recognizing the inability to resolve the conflict
How did we end up like this
Continued pondering on the relationship's downfall
How did we end up like this
Repetition emphasizing confusion and disbelief
How did we end up like this
-How did we end up like this
-Oh no, how did we end up like this
-And oh
Expressing regret or sorrow
I never wanted it to be like this no no
Undesirability of the current situation
But I guess were better off now
Belief in potential improvement despite pain
Waking up to the morning light
Beginning a new day post-conflict
Never thought that I'd see your face again
Surprised by the unexpected reunion
For something so wrong it's right
Something that feels inherently wrong but seems right
How did we end up like this
Continued contemplation on the relationship's decline
Open hearts lead to open eyes
Being emotionally open leads to understanding
We can find where the problem began
Seeking the origin of the issue
But baby we just can't fight
Acknowledging inability to resolve the conflict
How did we end up like this
Reiteration of disbelief and confusion
How did we end up like this
-How did we end up like this
-How did we end up like this
-Oh no, how did we end up like this
-Waking up to the morning light
Starting the day after the conflict
Never thought that I'd see your face again
Surprised by another encounter
For something so wrong it's right
Something that feels inherently wrong but seems right
How did we end up like this
Continued contemplation on the relationship's decline
Oh no, how did we end up like this
Reiteration of disbelief and confusion
Oh no, how did we end up like this
