Story Behind The Song

The song is entirely autobiographical. I was in a terrible relationship that failed. In the wake of the emotional backlash I wrote a lot of music. Completely is a song that was written at a point in which I was able to reflect upon all that had happened with remorse but also with resolve. I knew that it was a traumatic experience for me, but knew that I gave all of myself to that relationship, and am now able to look back with no regrets.

Song Description

This song is my reflection of a failed relationship and the realization that though it was ultimately a failure, that I gave everything that I had. The realization is made even harder when the discovery is made that my ex-girlfriend has already moved on and let me know about it.

Lyrics

The wounds that you left me, so perfect and so deep, define me. And though they are healing, consistently they bleed, reminding
Of roses in the snow, left frozen and alone.

I sift through these broken remains, our splattered past stains, my shattered glass heart consumes me,
I know reflecting on, all I've done wrong, that I gave you my heart, completely

The scars start to harden, your name scrawled on my arm, worn and charred. Forever to remind me, of guarded memories, held dearly
Like couch spent afternoons, and practice honeymoons

I sift through these broken remains, our splattered past stains, my shattered glass heart, consumes me
I know, reflecting on, all I've done wrong, that I gave you my heart, completely

With every passing day, I start to find my strength, recover the words to say. I didn't have a day of regret, like the moment you told me you found someone else, and claim that you love him the same, way you loved me once.

I sift through these broken remains, our splattered past stains, my shattered glass heart, consumes me
I know, reflecting on, all I've done wrong, that I gave you my heart, completely
Reflecting on, all I've done wrong, I gave you my heart, completely
