Confidence
Eric Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

She locks herself in the bathroom
And she's crying all alone
All this for a half hearted
Message on her phone
At the end of the night
We all need to go home
Don't waste your time on a
Man you barely know
Remember where you started and look
At how far you came
I promise you're surrounded by
Friends of good faith

No one can take away the
Blood from out your veins
I wanted so bad to tell you to your face
But she sit's behind this bathroom
Door in a stranger's basemеnt
You won't be rid of him until
You drink enough to say it

Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh

The bottlе's never deep enough to
Forget about her problems
But it's so much easier to suppress
'em than to solve 'em
And I know it hurts to face
But it's better than the
Damage you're causing yourself when you
Pretend you still want him

And no one can take away the
Blood from out your veins
I wanted so bad to tell you to your face
But she sit's behind this bathroom
Door in a stranger's basement




You won't be rid of him until
You drink enough to say it

Overall Meaning

In "Confidence," Eric explores the struggles and emotions of a woman who finds herself in a toxic relationship. The lyrics depict her locking herself in the bathroom, crying alone, and feeling hurt by a half-hearted message on her phone. The song emphasizes the importance of self-worth and encourages her not to waste her time on a man she barely knows.


The chorus acknowledges the journey of personal growth and reminds her to remember where she started and how far she has come. It reassures her that she is surrounded by friends of good faith who support her. However, the singer finds solace in drinking, using it as a means to suppress her problems rather than confronting them head-on. The lyrics convey the message that although alcohol may temporarily make her forget about her issues, it is not a healthy solution and only perpetuates the damage she is causing herself.


The repetition of the line "No one can take away the blood from out your veins" underscores the significance of valuing oneself and not allowing another person to define one's worth. The poignant line about sitting behind a bathroom door in a stranger's basement encapsulates the isolation and vulnerability she feels in her current situation. The lyrics suggest that the only way to break free from this toxic cycle is to reach a point where she can confront her feelings honestly and assertively, without the crutch of alcohol.


Overall, "Confidence" serves as a call to action for the singer to find her inner strength, confront her emotions, and break free from the damaging relationship.
