Needles and Pins
Love's Thorny Maze: Needles and Pins Unveiled
Lyrics
I saw her today, I saw her face, it was a face I loved, and I knew
I encountered her today; her face reminded me of a love from the past, and I realized
I had to run away, and get down on my knees and pray that they'd go away
I felt the need to escape, to kneel and pray for these emotions to fade away
But still they'd begin (uh), needles and pins (uh)
Despite my efforts, the emotional pain intensifies, symbolized as needles and pins
Because of all my pride, the tears I gotta hide
Due to my pride, I must conceal the tears caused by this emotional turmoil
Hey I thought I was smart, I'd won her heart
Initially, I believed I was clever and had won her heart
Didn't think I'd do, but now I see
Contrary to my expectations, she treats someone else worse than she treated me
She's worse to him than me, let her go ahead
I suggest letting her go with him and experiencing the pain of unrequited love
Take his love instead, and one day she will see
Encourage her to choose his love over mine, hoping she will eventually realize her mistake
Just how to say please, and get down on her knees
She will learn to humble herself, say "please," and experience the pain I felt
Hey that's how it begins (uh), she'll feel those needles and pins
This marks the beginning of her emotional suffering, feeling like needles and pins
A-hurtin' her, a-hurtin' her
Repeating the idea of causing emotional pain to her
Why can't I stop and tell myself I'm wrong, I'm wrong, so wrong
Questioning why I can't admit my mistakes and acknowledge that I am wrong
Why can't I stand up and tell myself I'm strong
Reflecting on the difficulty of standing up and recognizing my inner strength
Because I saw her today, I saw her face, it was a face I loved, and I knew
A repetition of encountering her face, experiencing the same emotional turmoil
I had to run away, and get down on my knees and pray that they'd go away
Repeating the desire to escape and pray for relief from the emotional pain
But still they'd begin (uh), needles and pins (uh)
Despite efforts, the emotional suffering continues, likened to needles and pins
Because of all my pride, the tears I gotta hide
Reiterating the need to hide tears due to pride and emotional vulnerability
Oh needles and pins (uh), needles and pins (uh), needles and pins (uh)
Emphasizing the persistent and overwhelming nature of emotional pain, represented as needles and pins
