Nameless
PAYCHECK Lyrics

My brains in a thousand different places
I am overwhelmed by thoughts and emotions

Friends keep saying you're not the one, and I can't face it
My friends are telling me that you are not right for me, but I am in denial

Guess I should've known, cause you were always acting basic
I should have realized sooner that you were not a good match for me, as you were not showing any unique qualities

You the one who tore me from my throne and left me nameless
You are the one who removed me from a position of power and caused me to feel unrecognized and insignificant

I should've known since we were young, and I always felt on my own
I should have recognized early on that I was always alone in this relationship

But your lies twisted and numbed me, left me strangling in the cold
Your deceitful behavior confused and hurt me, leaving me feeling helpless and vulnerable

Thought of nights that we would sit out, have a drink and speak our minds
I reminisce about the times we spent together, talking and connecting

If only you knew how I felt, you would read between the lines, yeah
I wish you could understand my true feelings without me having to explicitly state them

I look at myself in the mirror, and I don't recognize the figure I see
I feel like I have lost myself and do not know who I am anymore

I hear my own voice, hear my own words, but only recognize defeat
I feel like I have been defeated and am not able to express myself or my needs effectively

I miss your presence, I miss your vibes, I miss your energy
I miss the way you made me feel and the unique qualities that you brought to our relationship

Now I can only see what's left of me
Now, all I am left with is the remnants of the person I used to be

Like, did you ever think that everything you said had meaning
Did you realize that your words and actions had a profound impact on me?

All your love and your affection drawn from me had left me bleeding
Your love and affection were draining me emotionally

I don't want to hold you back from living, so I sit, retreated
I do not want to hinder your life, so I withdraw and distance myself

I'll just let myself get walked upon to feed those who are needy, so
I will sacrifice my own needs to help those who require it

Laid back, see the sunrise
I am enjoying the calmness of a new day

No patience, but I love time
I am impulsive, but I appreciate the passing of time

Falsehood's one of love's crimes
Lying is a common problem in love relationships

The antidote from above shines
A solution or remedy from a higher power can help heal this situation

Been tryna move right past hell
I have been attempting to get past this difficult situation

But a demon's close, he named Maxwell
I am being held back by a difficult obstacle or problem

Can't move on from my past well
I am struggling to come to terms with my past experiences

See I been pursuing for you
I have been actively trying to pursue a relationship with you

So why did you always see through
But for some reason, you were not interested or invested in our relationship

The painting you pictured of us
The idealized image of our relationship that you had in your mind

Could never be fathomed as true
This idealized version of our relationship was never going to be a reality
