In The Beginning
Rearview Mirror Lyrics

You're not above
You're not superior or exempt from the situation

and nothing is real subtle
The situation is not delicate or indirect

when you speak.
Your communication is straightforward and not obscured

You let them in quick
You quickly allowed others to be a part of the situation

with so much to offer,
You had a lot to provide and contribute

but wasn't for them to have.
However, they weren't meant to receive it

What you fought so hard for
What you struggled and worked hard to achieve

wasn't so unique,
Wasn't as distinct or special as you thought

but you won't just stand still,
Despite this, you won't remain idle

won't go silently?
Or submit to the situation quietly?

It's back.
The issue has resurfaced

The fight.
The conflict or struggle

So is anyone giving way?
Is anyone conceding or compromising?

It's just like in the beginning.
The situation is identical to how it started

The tears.
The crying or emotional reaction

Their eyes.
The other person's gaze

Why isn't anyone giving way?
Why isn't anyone yielding or giving up their stance?

Yes you led them nowhere,
You guided them to no clear destination or resolution

plus you forgot where you should be.
And you lost sight of your own goal or purpose

Can't assume that you're safe with
You should not feel secure by relying on

the same falsified reasons.
The same invalid or untrue justifications

All your faults don't prove that
Your mistakes don't confirm that

once you were real and now you're less,
You were once authentic, but now you're not

and we all hope it's soon over.
Everyone wishes for the situation to end soon

This should have never began.
The situation should never have started in the first place

The path taken there's so much lost here.
The journey has resulted in a significant loss
