I relate to this song's first line very much. "Love is going to get you killed but pride is going to be the death of you" I fell in love with this girl Maria. I am so in love with her and I fall for her more and more as the days pass. He makes me feel so intense emotions of sadness and happiness and she brought intensity in my life. Being with her is like being constantly stabbed by beautiful knives whose edge blooms flowers in my heart. I wanted to keep growing those flowers. It's just like the song said. My love for her is getting me killed. It's changing me. It's killing the old me. I have changed completely in character and personality and being with her helps me grow but I feel like I am losing myself in her eyes, I am being killed. But sadly all this is coming to an end because I have to go for studies abroad. It's not like studying abroad instead of here will get me more money or it's not like someone is forcing me, but I always seeked mastery in my subject and I am choosing to follow studying abroad because of personal ambition and determination, because I want to be the best at what I do, I want to rise up, I want admiration. In other words, because of pride. But studying abroad means leaving the love of my life, which will lead to me probably being guilty for the rest of my days and sadness will overflow me. If loving her got me killed, leaving her will be my death. Thus as the song says, my pride is going to be the death of me

I relate to these lyrics so much, especially the "maybe I wasn't there" I feel like I could actually start enjoying life during several instances throughout my life, but it's all so superficial, even while I'm enjoying myself, I'm left alone with my thoughts and I instantly feel this sinking feeling in my heart, it's almost as if part of my soul is missing, it's such an indescribable feeling, and of course people around me think I'm being dramatic because of the lively facade I've put on around them all for so long, even when I'm in severe emotional or physical pain the facade just slips and they think I'm okay.

Love's gonna get you killed
But pride's gonna be the death of you, and you and me
And you, and you, and you and me
And you, and you, and you and me
And you, and you, and you and me, and-
Me, I wasn't taught to share, but care
In another life, I surely was there
Me, I wasn't taught to share, but care
I care, I care
Hell-raising, wheel-chasing, new worldy possessions
Flesh-making, spirit-breaking, which one would you lessen?
The better part, the human heart
You love 'em or dissect 'em
Happiness or flashiness? How do you serve the question?
See, in the perfect world, I would be perfect, world
I don't trust people enough beyond they surface, world
I don't love people enough to put my faith in man
I put my faith in these lyrics hoping I make a band
I understand I ain't perfect
I probably won't come around
This time, I might put you down
Last time, I ain't give a fuck, I still feel the same now
My feelings might go numb, you're dealing with cold thumb
I'm willing to give up a leg and arm and show empathy from
Pity parties and functions and you and yours
A perfect world, you probably live another 24
I can't fake humble just 'cause your ass is insecure
I can't fake humble just 'cause your ass is insecure
Me, I wasn't taught to share, but care
In another life, I surely was there
Me, I wasn't taught to share, but care
I care, I care
Maybe I wasn't there
Maybe I wasn't there
Maybe I wasn't there
Maybe I wasn't there
Now, in a perfect world, I probably won't be insensitive
Cold as December, but never remember what winter did
I wouldn't blame you for mistakes I made or the bed I laid
Seems like I point the finger just to make a point, nowadays
Smiles and cold stares, the temperature goes there
Indigenous disposition, feel like we belong here
I know the walls, they can listen, I wish they could talk back
The hurt becomes repetition, the love almost lost that
Sick venom in men and women overcome with pride
A perfect world is never perfect, only filled with lies
Promises are broken and more resentment come alive
Race barriers make inferior of you and I
See, in a perfect world, I'll choose faith over riches
I'll choose work over bitches, I'll make schools out of prison
I'll take all the religions and put 'em all in one service
Just to tell 'em we ain't shit, but He's been perfect, world
Me, I wasn't taught to share, but care
In another life, I surely was there
Me, I wasn't taught to share, but care
I care, I care
Maybe I wasn't there
Maybe I wasn't there
Maybe I wasn't there
Maybe I wasn't there

Honestly this song hits hard, we all care about our reputation and pride but we don’t realize that we’ll die caring about that..in the end it’s worth nothing. Might as well live to the fullest! YOLO
