Regret
[ bsd.u ] Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

If I could make a list
Of my mistakes and regrets
I'd put your name on top
And every line after it

Because every inch of hope
Becomes a world of shame
I've had to walk through
Each and every day

And if I screamed you were wrong
At the top of my lungs
It would never return
All the faith that I've lost

Because there is nothing left to say
That has not been said
If I shouted, you wouldn't listen
I doubt it'd even sink in

If you forget how to feel
Reach inside your chest




Is there a heart beating?
Is there just emptiness?

Line by Line Meaning

If I could make a list
If I were able to chronicle


Of my mistakes and regrets
All the things I've done wrong and wish I could undo


I'd put your name on top
You'd be listed first


And every line after it
And each entry following


Because every inch of hope
All glimmers of optimism


Becomes a world of shame
Are transformed into profound guilt


I've had to walk through
I've had to endure


Each and every day
Every single day


And if I screamed you were wrong
If I protested that you were mistaken


At the top of my lungs
As forcefully as I could


It would never return
It wouldn't bring back


All the faith that I've lost
All the belief I've forfeited


Because there is nothing left to say
No more words to be uttered


That has not been said
That hasn't already been expressed


If I shouted, you wouldn't listen
Even if I raised my voice, you wouldn't pay attention


I doubt it'd even sink in
I speculate you wouldn't comprehend the gravity of it


If you forget how to feel
If you lose your capacity to experience emotions


Reach inside your chest
Take a look deep within yourself


Is there a heart beating?
Can you hear your heart actively pulsing?


Is there just emptiness?
Or do you feel nothingness instead?
