With Me
Love's Game: Desire, Deception, and the Dance of With Me by Henry Cornell
Lyrics
I don't want strings
I desire a relationship without emotional attachments.
I don't need wedding rings
I'm not interested in formal commitments like marriage.
Just want you here with me
I simply want your presence in my life.
And I don't know why you're not
Expressing confusion about your absence.
Cause I want you
Expressing a strong desire for you.
Nothing else to do
No other activities interest me; you're my focus.
You're on my mind and I don't know how to get to you
You're on my mind, but I struggle to connect with you.
You hurt me once
Recalling past instances of being hurt by you.
You hurt me twice
Reiterating the pain caused by you, emphasizing repetition.
Your warm one day
Describing your fluctuating emotions.
Then cold as ice
Highlighting the inconsistency in your behavior.
And I don't think I really care at all
Expressing a lack of concern about the relationship.
So I'll play your games and ill take the bait
Willing to engage in your manipulative games.
Cause I know you're not here to stay
Aware that your presence is temporary.
Let's have fun before you let me fall
Suggesting enjoying the moment before potential heartbreak.
I don't wanna know where you've been all night
Not interested in details about your whereabouts at night.
I don't wanna know who you're with all right
Unconcerned about your associations.
Come on over and be with me
Inviting you to be physically close.
Drive on over I'll help you see
Offering support and guidance.
I don't care and you don't care
Indifferent attitudes from both parties.
As long as you're
Emphasizing the importance of being together.
With Me
Reiterating the desire for your company.
You think it scars
Believing emotional wounds are permanent.
Think you broke my heart
Perceiving emotional damage caused by you.
Think I'm picking up the shards of what we used to be
Referencing the remnants of a past relationship.
You know what, your blade is blunt, skin can't be cut
Claiming resilience to emotional harm caused by you.
Can't leave me out to bleed
Asserting the inability to be abandoned and hurt.
You hurt me once

You hurt me twice
