And you neglected I called you out don't please
I said we're stronger than this now
You resurrected mistakes years past it seemed
And they exist to still haunt you
And still you feel like the loneliness
Is better replaced by this
I don't believe it this way
And I can see the fear in your eyes
I've seen it materialize
Growing stronger each day
I could see it as you turned to stone
Still clearly I can hear you say
Don't leave, don't give up on me
Two weeks and you ran away
I remember don't lie to me
You couldn't see that it was not that way
Swear I never gave up on you
I wanted nothing but for that trust again
And brick by brick you would take it
You feared of phantoms and none exist but you
You still saw fit to destroy it
And still you feel like the loneliness
Is better replaced by this
I don't believe it this way
And I can see the fear in your eyes
I've seen it materialize
Growing stronger each day
I could see it as you turned to stone
Still clearly I can hear you say
Don't leave don't give up on me
Two weeks and you ran away
I remember don't lie to me
You couldn't see that it was not that way
Swear I never gave up on you
And you neglected I called you out don't please
I said we're stronger than this now
You feared of phantoms and none exist but you
You still saw fit to destroy it
And I can see the fear in your eyes
I've seen it materialize
Growing stronger each day
I could see it as you turned to stone
Still clearly I can hear you say
Don't leave don't give up on me
Two weeks you ran away
I could see it as you turned to stone
Still clearly I can hear you say
Don't leave don't give up on me
Two weeks and you ran away
I remember don't lie to me
You couldn't see that it was not that way
Swear I never gave up on you
I could see it as you turned to stone
Still clearly I can hear you say
Don't leave don't give up on me
Two weeks and you ran away
I remember don't lie to me
You couldn't see that it was not that way
Swear I never gave up on you
The song is a story that unfolds like this to me:
Two weeks ago she left, now she is back. They start fighting and she brings up the past (either his mistake or another mans). He claims that they should be past all this now. She continues to shut him out with a cold heart due to her fear of their relationship and yet she pleas for him to stick around since she loves him. He hopes that she can start trusting him by building their trust slowly. She still is caught up in her phantoms and looks for an escape. The man clearly in shock says 'do not lie to me I know what we had was not like it was before, we have something special and I will not give up on you.' In the end it sounds like her shoulder is still turned to him and he is still fighting for her.
I would like to add that all the other comments are valid as well I just think this is the literal translation of the lyrics.
she went through a bad relationship. maybe an ex beat her, and made her scared of males. hes saying that he sees whats wrong. she tells him not to leave, but she leaves him. he wants to make her happy but she doesn't know the meaning anymore. her hearts stone.
i think its about a girl who is changing her personality and gettin lost with in herself and i think her boyfriend is trying to tell her to stop being depressed and wake up because he is there for her but she just ignores him and shuts him out as she destroys her self by change and confusion
I think she was in one or more abusive relationships and has been traumatized by this, but she still comes back to them because to her it's better than being alone and it's the only relationship she knows how to seek out. She knew the guy before and he's seen it happening, and now she turns to him and he's in love with her, but she's still haunted by her mistake of being with those other guys and never listening to him, so he entreats her not to give up on him now. He remembers all of this but she doesn't want to admit it happened so it contributes to her past haunting her, and eventually she leaves (after two weeks, I presume).
But I don't know.
I think that the song means that he has pobably done something bad in the past and when he says that he can see it materialize he means that she's letting it get to her and he wants to make amends.
