I am one of those people who liked listening to mellow and painful type of songs. It's not because I can relate to it but because I feel the pain on each lyric and I hear the sound of desperation, betrayal, sorrow and those feelings which are often unwanted but since we are human, we have no way of setting it aside or deleting it.
Sam Smith has been one of my favorite artists because his songs are such a mood when singing at the karaoke. I liked how his feelings and emotions are conveyed via song lyrics. He's a good artist but these songs are the particular songs which struck me the most.
No. 1 I'm not the only one
๐ถ๐ถ๐ถYou and me, we made a vow
For better or for worse
I can't believe you let me down
But the proof's in the way it hurts
For months on end I've had my doubts
Denying every tear
I wish this would be over now
But I know that I still need you here
You say I'm crazy
'Cause you don't think I know what you've done
But when you call me baby
I know I'm not the only one๐ถ๐ถ๐ถ
๐ I can't imagine how painful it is to stay in a relationship knowing that you are not valued or loved the same way he used to before.
This song has been one of those which was sang, yet the message was way too impactful which is the reality of most people. I have no right to judge anyone who is in this kind of relationship but it's not worth it. Nothing about staying in a painful relationship is worth it. It breaks your heart and makes you slowly lose yourself.
No. 2 Stay with the
๐ถ๐ถ๐ถ Guess it's true, I'm not good at a one-night stand
But I still need love 'cause I'm just a man
These nights never seem to go to plan
I don't want you to leave, will you hold my hand?
Oh, won't you stay with me?
'Cause you're all I need
This ain't love, it's clear to see
But, darling, stay with me๐ถ๐ถ๐ถ
๐ This song is a proof that giving yourself to someone is not a guarantee that you will be loved. It's a painful thing to be desperate and cling onto someone knowing that your life revolved around him and you somehow forgotten how to love without him.
There are things which are difficult to let go and it will always be harder than it already is but it will always be worth it to choose yourself and choose to be with someone who knows your worth and loves you the way you deserve.
No. 3 Too good at goodbyes
๐ถ๐ถ๐ถ You must think that I'm stupid
You must think that I'm a fool
You must think that I'm new to this
But I have seen this all before
I'm never gonna let you close to me
Even though you mean the most to me
'Cause every time I open up, it hurts
So I'm never gonna get too close to you
Even when I mean the most to you
In case you go and leave me in the dirt
But every time you hurt me, the less that I cry
And every time you leave me, the quicker these tears dry
And every time you walk out, the less I love you
Baby, we don't stand a chance, it's sad but it's true
I'm way too good at goodbyes๐ถ๐ถ๐ถ
๐ It's okay to protect yourself from those people who hurt you but you must never close your heart and choose to be alone because you deserve to be happy.
The more quarrels and unresolved offenses there is, the more painful a relationship gets. It's not an easy task to stay in love with the same person who has hurt you the most. It's important to always feel happy and be happy. If walking out of that relationship is what will give you peace of mind, then there's no point in staying.
No. 4 Not in that way
๐ถ๐ถ๐ถ And I hate to say I love you
When it's so hard for me
And I hate to say I want you
When you make it so clear
You don't want me
I'd never ask you cause deep down
I'm certain I know what you'd say
You'd say I'm sorry believe me
I love you but not in that way
And I hate to say I need you
I'm so reliant
I'm so dependent
I'm such a fool
When you're not there
I find myself singing the blues
Can't bear
Can't face the truth
You will never know that feeling
You will never see through these eyes
I'd never ask you
Cause deep down I'm certain I know what you'd say
You'd say I'm sorry
Believe me
I love you
But not in that way๐ถ๐ถ๐ถ
๐ Loving someone more than he loves you is such an agonizing and painful feeling. You can't always ask for love or beg for it. You can't expect the person you love to love you the same.
We can love someone but we can never ask them them to love us the same way we love them.
No. 5 Leave your lover
๐ถ๐ถ๐ถ Pack up and leave everything
Don't you see what I can bring
Can't keep this beating heart at bay
Set my midnight sorrow free
I will give you all of me
Just leave your lover, leave him for me
Leave your lover, leave him for me ๐ถ๐ถ๐ถ
๐ I can never blame someone who chooses to be the third person in a relationship but I don't think it's worth it. If he truly loves you, he will never make you the second choice.
You deserve to be with someone who sees you as the best choice and the number one priority.
