Day 326 - Me


Hadn't heard this song in a bit, but when I heard in on my laptop the other day, I just knew I had to blog about it....
"Love was the former owner but quiet is renting our house.  It ceases my lips from speaking but forms a sarcastic smile.  Suspense now raised one of your eyebrows.  You asked me if there's someone else. I replied yes, hell yes!  You asked if it's another man, I said, 'no.'  You laughed and say, 'is it a woman?'  I say, 'yes.'  Surprisingly you ask me for honey's name."   The singer seems to be experiencing some issues in her relationship.  It seems that love is no longer the major player in the house, and now there's silence.  It's even gotten to the point where there's suspense, tension, and sarcasm.  Her partner notices the change and asks if there is someone else in the picture.  He seems surprised to hear that there is indeed someone else, a woman at that.
"And her name is Me, and she loves me more than you'll ever know.  And I finally see that loving you and loving me just don't seem to work at all.  So patiently, she's waiting on me to tell you that she needs love.  And to choose between you two, boy, you know if I have to choose, I choose me."  The singer explains that the person who is taking her attention and causing things to change is, in fact, herself.  She has awakened to the need and understanding of self love, and she seems to realize that it is not possible to love herself and love her partner at the same time.  The true her (the one that resides within and wants the best) is saying that it is time to take a stand - he can either love her right or lose her, because she's come to the point where, if she has to choose, she is going to choose herself.
"And she told me to tell you to never to hurt me again, cuz if you haven't heard she's a bad chick even though I haven't been, no.  Yet and still you try and test me by raising an angry hand. Put it down, put it down.  I'm leaving don't try and stop me, no.  I'm late and she is waiting, yes.  My love for me is too much so I can't stay."  In finding herself and her confidence, she is standing up for herself, demanding better treatment.  Even though she's previously been passive, allowing things that she shouldn't, this will no longer be the case.  And even his attempt to intimidate her with physical violence doesn't work - she is moving on, because she knows that she deserves better, and his threat simply proves that he does not have true loving interest for her.
"Cause she's actually forming a threesome and I'm happy that I can join them - their names are me, myself, and I."  She is no longer going to be the fragmented human being that was willing to accept whatever she was given in the name of love.  She has found herself and her strength, and she is going to be bold in her assertion of her need for love.  No longer will she be abused, lied to, hurt, pushed aside, or treated any less than she deserves.  She has found and will walk in true self love, walking away from a situation that clearly means her no good.
