One More Reason
Sinshrift Lyrics

I can’t keep living this life
The current way of living is unsustainable and cannot continue anymore

Waiting on your change of mind
Hoping for a change in someone else's decision or opinion is fruitless

Pretending what could be
Imagining a different outcome for a situation is just deceiving oneself

Trying my hardest to believe
Putting in a lot of effort to maintain optimism despite doubts and disappointments

For every promise broken
Acknowledging every time someone failed to keep their word

And every word unspoken
Noticing every time someone opted to say nothing instead of communicating

This time I’m walking away
Choosing to end a relationship or situation that doesn't serve one's best interest

Give me one more reason to fight
Requesting a compelling motive to continue trying to make something work

I’m not living in yesterday
Rejecting the influence of past experiences and moving on from them

Lying awake
Being unable to sleep due to anxiety or thoughts

I contemplate
Reflecting deeply on a situation, weighing possibilities and outcomes

What it would take to make this real
Wondering what actions would be needed to bring a desired outcome into existence

You’ve turned on me a thousand times
Acknowledging repeated instances where someone acted against one

There’s nothing left here to feel
Emptiness or numbness due to being let down too many times

I’ve cast my burdens astray
Having let go of emotional weight or stress

Give me one more reason to try
Asking for a compelling reason to continue putting in effort

This time I’m walking away
Making the choice again to move on from a situation

Give me one more reason to fight
Requesting that a compelling motivation be given before expending any more energy

I’m not living...
Declaring a refusal to continue living in a situation that is detrimental or unfulfilling
