Discover the story of the song > For The Time Being – After Forever

The lyrics talk about a person, referred to as 'she', who used to trust and rely on her partner, referred to as 'he'. However, she realizes that he is not honest and is not worth her time. She's told that she should be true to herself and not care about what others think. Life is short, so she shouldn't waste it being cautious. Her partner used lies to protect himself, but now she wants him to take responsibility for his actions. She no longer feels sorry for him and believes he should learn to stand up for himself.
