More Things to Say

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
And now you wish you could
Take back what you did wrong
You lost him
How could he breathe
With the pressure that you put on?
How come being proud always feels so wrong
When you hurt the one you love?But still you find a way to wonder why
Behind those walls that won't come down
I'm sure you had more things to say
You're upside down and inside out
'Cause I'm sure you had more things to say
When time passes by
You'll start to see how one word
Could've changed it all
There's so much more than "I"
When five letters were enough
To prevent this fall
How come saying "sorry" comes so easily
When you've had some time to grieve
But still you find a way to wonder why
Behind those walls that won't come down
I'm sure you had more things to say
You're upside down and inside out
'Cause I'm sure you had more things to say
But there's always someone else you blame
Oh just look where it's got you now
You tell yourself that it's okay
But I'm sure you had more things to say
I'm so sure, I'm so sure
Behind those walls that won't come down
I'm sure you had more things to say
You're upside down and inside out
'Cause I'm sure you had more things to say
But there's always someone else you blame
Oh just look where it's got you now
You tell yourself that it's okay
But I'm sure you had more things to say
I'm sure you had more things to say
I'm sure you had more things to say

You lost her
You let her go
And now you wish you could
But now it's too late and you regret it
Take back what you did wrong
Undo the mistakes you made
You lost him
You pushed him away
How could he breathe
It was suffocating to be around you
With the pressure that you put on?
Because of the expectations you put on him
How come being proud always feels so wrong
Why does it feel like pride gets in the way of apologies
When you hurt the one you love?
Especially when it was someone you care about deeply
But still you find a way to wonder why
And yet you can't understand why things went downhill
Behind those walls that won't come down
You keep your emotions locked up, afraid to express them
I'm sure you had more things to say
You had more emotions to express than what you showed
You're upside down and inside out
You're feeling lost and disoriented
'Cause I'm sure you had more things to say
You didn't say everything you wanted to say
When time passes by
As time goes on
You'll start to see how one word
You'll realize how one simple thing
Could've changed it all
Could have made a difference
There's so much more than "I"
An apology involves more than just saying sorry
When five letters were enough
When it took only five letters to make things right
To prevent this fall
To avoid this downward spiral
How come saying "sorry" comes so easily
Why is it easier to apologize later on
When you've had some time to grieve
After giving yourself some time to process
But still you find a way to wonder why
You still can’t fully comprehend the situation
But there's always someone else you blame
You shift responsibility for the situation
Oh just look where it's got you now
The situation has resulted in negative consequences
You tell yourself that it's okay
You try to convince yourself that everything is fine
But I'm sure you had more things to say
But you still have unresolved emotions to express
I'm so sure, I'm so sure
You know deep down that you have more emotions to express
I'm sure you had more things to say
You have unspoken emotions that you have not shared
I'm sure you had more things to say
You had more that you wanted to express
