In my opinion MillerTime88 and anon23 hit it spot on there. I can relate to this interpretation of the song completely and it is pretty much how I’ve seen it. This song could be about me and I’ve been listening to this song a lot lately. Sometimes feeling angry, sometimes crying my eyes out. I’ve taken this as a theme song in my battle out of this mess I’ve become. Being too good hearted, kind, forgiving and ever trusting I ended up being hurt so much in my life I lost myself in order to survive emotionally. I couldn’t take the emotional beating anymore, I had to get on top and found I didn’t like who I had become. There was the man ripping at my soul now – myself, acting like the ones I had disrespected the most in my life. A sucker playing with other people’s emotions and life. Not intentionally but for some reason I ended up doing so, I felt out of control. I was safe from others but I couldn’t escape the guilt I realized I need to change in order to respect myself. I tried to feel better but ended up feeling worse.
I hid my face so I wouldn’t hurt anyone, I hid my face to protect myself from attacks of envy, I hid my face because of shame and guilt. I’ve forgiven myself the wrongdoing but accept no more new, I’m so sorry for all the bad. I just hope I could feel love, find someone new and have her see through me as I truly am, a good person who just got lost along the way. First I need to prove me to myself, you can’t feel deserving of love unless you love yourself, you can’t love unless you can’t trust. To trust you must not fear.
