Nothing I Can Do
Unyielding Temptation and Inevitable Choices
Lyrics
Don't waste this temptation
Advice against squandering this alluring opportunity
Caress this last portation
To gently hold onto this final portion or experience
Consuming, you soothe me
The act of consuming or being absorbed by something that brings comfort or relief
Your vial moves right through me
Feeling the impact of something deeply, almost as if it passes through the core
You made me look good, doesn't get any better
Attributing positive qualities to someone who enhances one's appearance or reputation
You're going out then let's go out together
Sharing an experience, particularly going out, together despite circumstances
No, there's nothing I can do
Expressing powerlessness or inability to influence someone's decision to leave, despite the desire for them to stay
No, there's nothing I can do to make you stay
-No, there's nothing I can do
-But I came here anyway
-No, there's nothing I can do
-No, there's nothing I can do to make you stay
-No, there's nothing I can do
-But I came here anyway
-You thought you were even
Feeling like there's a balance, but no one manages to leave
But no one ever leaves me
Claiming that nobody can truly depart from the singer's influence or impact
You came back to taste me
Returning for another taste or experience, possibly due to an insatiable craving
Lost in their hunger lately
Being absorbed or engrossed in a consuming desire or need recently
If you need me right now then they need a future
Offering oneself as a temporary solution for immediate needs if a long-term commitment is offered in return
I'll let you use me if you be my user
Willingness to be used by someone if they reciprocate by being dependent on the singer
No, there's nothing I can do
Reiterating the sense of powerlessness in influencing someone's decision to stay despite the singer's presence
No, there's nothing I can do to make you stay
-No, there's nothing I can do
-But I came here anyway
-No, there's nothing I can do
-No, there's nothing I can do to make you stay
-No, there's nothing I can do
-But I came here anyway
-But I came here anyway
Repetition emphasizing the singer's decision to be present despite the inability to change the outcome
But I came here anyway
-No, there's nothing I can do
Reaffirming the sentiment of being unable to alter someone's choice to leave while expressing the singer's determination to remain present
No, there's nothing I can do to make you stay
-No, there's nothing I can do
-But I came here anyway
-No, there's nothing I can do
-No, there's nothing I can do to make you stay
-No, there's nothing I can do
-But I came here anyway
