Love to See You Cry
Emotional Odyssey: Unveiling the Bittersweet Journey in 'Love to See You Cry'
Lyrics
Driving me away
Feeling compelled to distance myself
I do it every day
It's a repetitive action I undertake
I watch the miles roll by
Observing the passing of distance or time
More clever alibis.
Creating more sophisticated excuses
I'll take a walk outside while inside I'm exposed.
Outwardly stepping away while feeling vulnerable inside
I'm coming back around before the door is closed.
Returning just before being shut out
I love to see you cry
Deriving pleasure from witnessing your emotional pain
I love that it's hard to say goodbye
Enjoying the difficulty of bidding farewell
I love a little pain
Appreciating some level of emotional distress
As long as I can see you smile again.
But finding solace in witnessing your happiness once more
Driving me away
Continuing the action of pushing away
I do it every day
Repeatedly engaging in this behavior
The one true thing I believe
Believing in only one thing strongly
I forget so easily.
Easily forgetting the genuinely important
I love to see you cry
Deriving pleasure from witnessing your emotional pain (repeated)
I love that it's hard to say goodbye
Enjoying the difficulty of bidding farewell (repeated)
I love a little pain
Appreciating some level of emotional distress (repeated)
As long as I can see you smile again.
But finding solace in witnessing your happiness once more (repeated)
Try to reach my feet
Encouraging an attempt to understand my actions
Cause you know I still can't sleep
Recognizing an inability to find peace or rest
I know that when I win
Acknowledging that victory comes at a cost of loss
I've really lost again.
Realizing that achieving something may result in losing elsewhere
