Miley Cyrus – Wrecking Ball Lyrics 12 years ago
I completely agree with this interpretation. I experienced a similar situation myself and hence despite not particularly liking Miley Cyrus nor her music, this song particularly struck me, as if I could connect with the lyrics and it helped me feel less 'alone' with regards to this experience.

The part I found most accurate was the following:

'I came in like a wrecking ball
I never hit so hard in love
All I wanted was to break your walls
All you ever did was break me'

Though I don't think I 'came in like a wrecking ball' in the sense that he chased me for quite some time before I gave in, got to know him on a personal level (not just physical attraction) and fell in love with him; I completely understand the 'all I ever wanted was to break your walls' (he had quite a few emotional issues which I felt not only prevented him from truly connecting with his own emotions, but also from connecting with someone else's emotions on a higher level (deeply in love) on top of unfortunate timing etc.). I kept devoting my entire self to him, all my love. At times I could not actually believe how much I loved this man; everything about him. I thought it was what he would eventually appreciate. Yet I think I pushed him too far when it became clear that there was something not right, 'unequal emotions' as you've stated. I felt like I was in the dark and that this was my only way out; trying to confront him, without response on his behalf; just passive excuses all the time. I just wanted to know where I stood but instead he chose to cower and run.

It also gave me an insight into how people truly are not always what they seem... I will never again judge some womanising matcho who may be hiding an overly sensitive heart of gold after discovering that the 'shy and caring' man I thought I knew, was not even capable of having an adult conversation to end things more delicately. Not to mention that I had suggested we end it a few times (against my will; hoping we find solutions) but he kept telling me he did not think it need come to that. He probably lied but I just wish he told me the truth.

I am not denying that a relationship is easy to end (I am truly the last person to even consider stating this) but after a couple years one would only hope that even if the relationship must end, that the mutual respect that existed throughout still remain until the end.

Strangely enough I then met a man who fell for me from the first time he met me. We have been together for over a year now but it took me a very long time to believe and trust him (and feel) after my last experience.

Regardless of my interpretation I think the lyrics here are surprisingly pretty deep and that this song will benefit both those who appreciate it for their own reasons and those who are trying to heal their past wounds. Music is a remedy!
