What's the Reason I'm Not Pleasing You
Unraveling the Quest for Approval in Relationships
Lyrics
Why don't we get along
Expressing frustration about a lack of harmony in the relationship.
Everything I do is wrong
Feeling that every action taken is perceived as wrong by the partner.
Tell me what's the reason
Seeking an explanation for the dissatisfaction in the relationship.
I'm not pleasing you
Questioning why efforts are not meeting the partner's expectations.
I may kiss you but then
Highlighting a lack of reciprocation or encouragement in kissing.
You don't never say, kiss me again
Not receiving verbal affirmation or encouragement for affectionate actions.
Tell me what's the reason
Reiterating the desire to understand the cause of dissatisfaction.
I'm not pleasing you
Continuing to question why efforts are not pleasing the partner.
If you must keep me in doubt
Expressing frustration about being kept in the dark regarding the partner's feelings.
How would I know what to do
Emphasizing the difficulty of knowing how to act when faced with uncertainty.
You can change me about
Willingness to adapt and change to meet the partner's expectations.
I'll be what you want me to
Commitment to being whatever the partner desires.
So, I tried, yes, I tried
Acknowledging attempts to please, despite persistent dissatisfaction.
Still you're never satisfied
Expressing frustration at the partner's perpetual discontent.
Tell me what's the reason
Reiterating the desire to understand the cause of dissatisfaction.
I'm not pleasing you
Questioning why efforts are not meeting the partner's expectations.
Why don't we get along
Repeating the frustration about a lack of harmony in the relationship.
Everything I do is wrong
Feeling that every action taken is perceived as wrong by the partner.
Tell me what's the reason
Seeking an explanation for the dissatisfaction in the relationship.
I'm not pleasing you
Questioning why efforts are not pleasing the partner.
I may kiss you but then
Highlighting a lack of reciprocation or encouragement in kissing.
You don't never say, kiss me again
Not receiving verbal affirmation or encouragement for affectionate actions.
Tell me what's the reason
Reiterating the desire to understand the cause of dissatisfaction.
I'm not pleasing you
Continuing to question why efforts are not pleasing the partner.
If you must keep me in doubt
Expressing frustration about being kept in the dark regarding the partner's feelings.
How would I know what to do
Emphasizing the difficulty of knowing how to act when faced with uncertainty.
You can change me about
Willingness to adapt and change to meet the partner's expectations.
I'll be what you want me to
Commitment to being whatever the partner desires.
So, I tried, yes, I tried
Acknowledging attempts to please, despite persistent dissatisfaction.
Still you're never satisfied
Expressing frustration at the partner's perpetual discontent.
Tell me what's the reason
Reiterating the desire to understand the cause of dissatisfaction.
I'm not pleasing you
Questioning why efforts are not meeting the partner's expectations.
