Shades Of Weakness
Hajva Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Time spent with you, the things I regret
Way too long I was scared to see
You were not the one to set my demons free
In the end we had nothing
Deep inside I always knew
What I need to do
Watching as you have changed I felt like slowly dyin'
Will I find the strenght
You always relied on
You were alone for far too long
Hoping to find a place where you truely belong
My home was a wreck as I let you in, I
Remember how deep your nails sank in my skin
But in the end
In the end we had nothing
Deep inside I always knew
What I need to do
Some things in life are just not worth protecting
Watching as you have changed I felt like slowly dyin'
Will I find the strenght
You always relied on
Deep inside I always knew
What I need to do
Some things in life are just not worth protecting
Watching as you have changed I felt like slowly dyin'
Will I find the strenght
You always relied on
Now my soul is dead
With you in my head
I can't feel a damn thing anymore
The lyrics of Hajva's song Shades of Weakness depict a person who is struggling with the aftermath of a failed relationship. The singer reminisces about the time spent with their partner and regrets not seeing the signs earlier that they were not right for each other. They admit that they were afraid to confront the truth about their relationship and the detrimental effect it had on them. The line "You were not the one to set my demons free" suggests that the singer was holding onto the relationship to help overcome their problems, but it was not the right solution.
As the relationship deteriorates, the singer admits that they feel like they are slowly dying from the stress and changes in their partner. They question whether they have the strength to carry on and if they will find the courage to do what they know is best for them. Despite their struggles, the singer acknowledges that some things in life are not worth protecting, and they need to let go and move on to find happiness.
The song's powerful and raw emotions resonate with anyone who has been through a difficult breakup and the struggle to find the strength to let go. Ultimately, the singer feels drained and numb from the experience, which is summed up in the haunting final line, "Now my soul is dead, with you in my head, I can't feel a damn thing anymore."

In sleepless nights I still recall how I felt
I think back to how I used to feel during my nights without sleep
Time spent with you, the things I regret
I regret the time I dedicated to you and the choices I made while with you
Way too long I was scared to see
I was afraid to acknowledge what was really going on for far too much time
You were not the one to set my demons free
I realize now that you were never going to be the solution to my inner struggles
In the end we had nothing
Our relationship was ultimately empty
Deep inside I always knew What I need to do
I always had an inkling of what was necessary
Some things in life are just not worth protecting
Some parts of life are better left behind and not worth defending

As I witnessed your transformation, I felt like I was gradually withering away
Will I find the strenght You always relied on
I hope I can muster up the same strength that you depended on from me

You were isolated and searching for a place of genuine acceptance for an extended period of time
My home was a wreck as I let you in, I Remember how deep your nails sank in my skin
When I permitted you into my life, I recall how much you hurt me and left your mark
But in the end In the end we had nothing

I feel utterly lifeless with you constantly in my thoughts
I can't feel a damn thing anymore
I have lost the ability to feel anything at all
