Confession
Lagwagon (USA) Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
By now you should call me
We can work it out
By now you should be in a better place
And thinking for your self
It's not your axe to grind
I fallow it until the end of concession
There's no discretion
I'm burning out on this
And this is my latest confession
I hope you hear about it
Victims I know the saints come to call
And bring you obsession
To save you from your fall
Victim I know it wont be long
'Til one worth possessing
Is one you'll never reach
Swallow it until the end
Of our concession
I'm sure I'll hear from you
Through them
There's no discretion
I'm burning out on this
And this is my latest confession
I doubt you'll hear about it
I fallow it until the end of concession
"A falling out" I heard from them
There's no discretion
It's only indecision
This is your latest condition
I hope you hear about it soon
The lyrics of Lagwagon's song "Confession" are about a relationship that has ended, but the two parties have not yet moved on. The singer is urging the other person to speak up and make amends. The first verse is directed towards the other person, suggesting that they should come forward and have a conversation about their issues. The second verse is about the singer themselves, who is tired of the situation and wishes to make a confession in hopes of moving forward. The last verse is a blend of both, with the singer acknowledging that the relationship has ended and that they both need to work on themselves in order to find happiness.
Throughout the song, Lagwagon delivers a powerful message about the struggles of relationships and how it's easy to fall into the trap of holding onto something that is no longer viable. The song's lyrics are not just limited to romantic relationships. They are also relevant to any type of relationship in which people are struggling to communicate and move on from past grievances.
