Sevendust – Ugly Lyrics 20 years ago
I sort of disagree with you diabolic. I think the speaker was in a bad relationship of some kind and it went sour and now when ever he looks at him or her all the speaker can see inside that person is 'ugly'; ugly represents the bad thoughts and feelings the speaker has for this person. This can be seen in the following lines, "It's hard to keep you by my side, Haunted by the vision, Too ugly For one day, Go live your life" by the speaker saying 'for one day go live your life' the speaker is saying how he/she needs that person to move on so he can as well.

The more I read the lyrics and hear it I can not surpase the thought of a sour relationship and how he tried every which way to make it work like when he says "Sick of all the ways I try to change, To keep the promises we made all over again, Can't you see?, I'm, gonna try to live again, (Why Can't), You give me the reason, (Why can't you just see), Misery, (Set us free)". Simply said the speaker is over him or her and teh wya he is doing that is to use the negative imagery and feelings to propel him outwards from her or him. That the stronger the feelings are the better he wants to make it through life and live more of life.

Well that is what I got out of it, i can relate to it so vividly since my last relationship ended really bad with us not being friends and I can sympathize for the speaker so much as I still feel that same.
