I need you

Continuing to emphasize the speaker's longing for the person.

Don't you need me too

Don't you need me

Reiterating the question about the other person's need.


She says she like when I move it like that

The speaker describes the other person enjoying their movements.

Gets so exciting inviting me back

Excitement and an invitation for the speaker to return.

I say I'd like to be more then I'm gone in the morning

The speaker expresses a desire for a deeper connection but acknowledges leaving in the morning.

Her life there is holding her back

Reference to the other person's life holding them back from a committed relationship.

I'm staying quiet, she's calling her man

The speaker observes the other person calling their significant other.

Photo of both on her phone holding hands

A photo of the other person with their partner.

She slips the ring off her finger when she's gone with me

The other person removes their ring when with the speaker.

But we both cannot post where we're at

Both individuals can't publicly share their whereabouts.

I know inside of my conscience it's bad

The speaker acknowledges the moral conflict within their conscience.

Both of us lying before and again

Both have lied before and continue to do so.

But when she's lying before me well I can't ignore it

And I'm sure I won't if I can

This can't go on for much longer

The speaker acknowledges that the current situation cannot continue indefinitely.

Why's it feel right to be wronger

Questioning why the wrong actions feel right.

Try to deny our whole dealings

Attempts to deny the involvement but acknowledges that resisting feelings may strengthen them.

But fighting those feelings just might make them stronger

The inner struggle with emotions that may intensify despite attempts to fight them.

This the last time then I'm gone

Announcing that this is the last encounter before leaving.

But I've said it all before, swore down and up

Recognition of previous promises to leave, but the speaker finds themselves back in the other person's home.

Then wake up in her home

Waking up in the other person's home despite earlier intentions to leave.

I can't control myself

I want to tear you apart, oh let's hurt one another

Want you so much we're destroying each other

Touching your body, it all hurts so bad

When you want what you just can't have
