Attracted to Pain
Embracing the Unintentional Symphony of Heartache
Lyrics
In solemn response, to your wishes and wants
Responding seriously to your desires and needs
I stand with my heart in my hands
Standing vulnerably with my heart exposed
Though the courage it takes to live with mistakes
Acknowledging the difficulty of living with mistakes
Makes me feel less than a man
Feeling a diminished sense of manhood
Because girl you're the beat that robs me of sleep
You are the rhythm that disrupts my peace and causes insomnia
By keeping my face in the rain
Enduring difficulties, akin to facing challenges in life
But how can I rest, when your love's the test
Rest is elusive due to the ongoing test of your love
That leaves me with no one to blame
No one else to blame for the challenges posed by your love
And proves I'm attracted to pain
Confirming a tendency to be drawn to pain
Unintentional pain
Pain that is unintentional
Like a continual rain that's falling
Continuous emotional pain resembling falling rain
Down on me
Symbolic representation of emotional distress
So with helpless consent I pay for the rent
Consenting helplessly to the emotional toll
On a room where we hide in the dark
Paying the emotional price for the shared space
From a woman and child whose love is on trial
A relationship under scrutiny by a man who once promised loyalty
By a man who once swore on his heart
Challenged by the commitment sworn on his heart
That only in death would they part
A pledge to remain united until death
But unintentional pain keeps calling
Continued unintentional pain persistently affecting
Like a continual rain that's falling
Enduring ongoing emotional distress
Down on me
Reiteration of the emotional pain's persistence
Down on me
Repetition emphasizing the burden of emotional pain
Down on me
Emphasizing the weight of emotional distress
Down on me
Repeating the impact of continuous emotional pain
