Terrible Love
Embracing Chaos: Boston Manor's Terrible Love Unveiled
Lyrics
I'm an oil stain on the world.
I feel like a negative mark or stain on the world.
I've given up the ghost.
I've lost hope or given up entirely.
I'm lazy & I'm selfish & I've got no self control.
I lack motivation, exhibit selfishness, and struggle with self-discipline.
I'm becoming an idiot.
I'm gradually becoming foolish or unintelligent.
Never really fitted in.
I've never truly felt like I belong or fit in anywhere.
I've spilt my milk & I want more but I just quit drinking.
I've wasted opportunities and desire more, yet I've given up trying.
Blowing smoke to fill the void.
I'm using distractions or vices to fill an emotional emptiness.
Telling tales to pass the time.
I'm inventing stories or narratives to pass the time.
I want something that I can't have
I desire something that seems unattainable.
But if I take it then it's mine
If I manage to attain it, I'll claim it as my own.
I'm gonna take over the world
I aspire to dominate or have control over everything.
& do anything I want
I want the freedom to do anything without limitations.
If I ever make it out of here
I hope to escape from my current situation or environment.
Because this mirror keeps me warm
My reflection in the mirror provides comfort or reassurance.
You had to crash the party. You had to kill my joy.
Someone's actions have disrupted my happiness.
So tell me you love me.
I seek reassurance of love from someone.
Tell me I'm everything you want.
I want affirmation that I am everything they desire.
Tell me you need me.
I need to hear that I'm necessary or indispensable.
Give me everything you've got.
I want them to give me their all.
So give it all.
I want them to put forth maximum effort.
I'm desperate to be heard but I don't have much to say.
I'm eager to express myself but feel like I lack substance.
I forgot the words, but I'll scream them anyway.
I may not remember the exact words, but I'll express myself passionately regardless.
Paper genius, plastic pain.
There's superficial brilliance but underlying pain or suffering.
Broken windows, acid rain.
There's a portrayal of destruction and harsh environmental conditions.
Let's make small talk, let's make change.
Let's engage in trivial conversation or create change, as long as you show me affection or pay attention.
As long as you love me, as long as you paid.
The condition for my engagement or care is your love or attention.
So tell me you love me.
Reiteration of the need for love and affirmation.
Tell me I'm everything you want.
Desire to be seen as the ultimate desire of someone.
Tell me you need me.
Need for validation and assurance of necessity.
Give me everything you've got.
Request for complete dedication and effort from the other person.
So give it all.
Emphasizing the plea for wholehearted commitment.
