Lyrics
Telling myself I won't go there
Telling oneself not to delve into a certain situation or emotion.
Oh, but I know that I won't care
Aware that despite the intention, one will not be emotionally detached.
Tryna wash away all the blood I've spilt
Attempting to cleanse oneself of past wrongdoing or guilt.
This lust is a burden that we both share
Describing a shared burden of desire or passion.
Two sinners can't atone from a lone prayer
Two individuals with shared guilt cannot find redemption through prayer alone.
Souls tied, intertwined by our pride and guilt
Connection between souls through a mix of pride and guilt.
There's darkness in the distance
Acknowledging a looming sense of darkness or trouble in the future.
From the way that I've been livin'
Consequences of past actions affecting the present lifestyle.
But I know I can't resist it
Recognizing an inability to resist a negative influence or temptation.
Oh, I love it and I hate it at the same time
Expressing conflicting emotions of love and hatred simultaneously.
You and I drink the poison from the same vine
Both individuals consuming the poison of a shared experience.
Oh, I love it and I hate it at the same time
Reiterating the ambivalence of loving and hating a situation at the same time.
Hidin' all of our sins from the daylight
Keeping sins hidden from public view, possibly to avoid judgment.
From the daylight, runnin' from the daylight
Running away from exposure to sins and darkness.
From the daylight, runnin' from the daylight
Continuing to avoid facing the consequences of one's actions.
Oh, I love it and I hate it at the same time
Reiterating the mixed feelings of love and hatred towards a situation.
Tellin' myself it's the last time
Telling oneself that the current situation is the last occurrence.
Can you spare any mercy that you might find
Requesting mercy in case of a repeated mistake.
If I'm down on my knees again?
Picturing oneself in a vulnerable position, possibly seeking forgiveness.
Deep down, way down, Lord, I try
Expressing a sincere effort to follow a righteous path.
Try to follow your light, but it's night time
Struggling to find guidance in a challenging or dark period.
Please, don't leave me in the end
Pleading not to be abandoned in difficult times.
There's darkness in the distance
Reiteration of the presence of impending darkness or trouble.
I'm beggin' for forgiveness (ooh)
Begging for forgiveness, indicating remorse or guilt.
But I know I might resist it, oh
Acknowledging the possibility of resisting the urge to seek forgiveness.
Oh, I love it and I hate it at the same time
Reiterating the contradictory emotions of love and hatred.
You and I drink the poison from the same vine
Emphasizing the shared experience of consuming something harmful.
Oh, I love it and I hate it at the same time
Expressing the simultaneous love and hatred towards a situation.
Hidin' all of our sins from the daylight
Continuing to conceal sins from the light, avoiding exposure.
From the daylight, runnin' from the daylight
Persisting in running away from the consequences and exposure.
From the daylight, runnin' from the daylight
Repeating the theme of evading the challenges presented by daylight.
Oh, I love it and I hate it at the same time
Reiterating the conflicting emotions of love and hatred.
