Lyrics
I knew the time had to come
I anticipated a moment when I would be under your control.
When I'd be held under your thumb
Feeling like a pawn under your influence.
I'm like a pawn in your hand
Comparing oneself to a chess piece manipulated by you.
Moved and compelled, at your command
Acting and compelled to follow your orders.
Whether it's for bad or for good
Whether the influence is positive or negative.
I would never change it if I could
Accepting the situation, not wishing for a change.
Maybe I'm right, maybe I'm wrong
Uncertain about one's own correctness or incorrectness.
Maybe I'm weak, maybe I'm strong
Recognizing personal weaknesses and strengths.
But nevertheless I'm in love with you
Despite uncertainties, expressing love for you.
Maybe I'll win, maybe I'll lose
Possibly facing victories or defeats in the relationship.
And maybe I'm in for crying the blues
Potential emotional struggles and sadness.
But nevertheless I'm in love with you
Nonetheless, maintaining love for you.
Somehow, I know at a glance, the terrible chances I'm taking
Aware of the risks involved in the relationship.
Fine at the start, then left with a heart that is breaking
Starting well but facing a heartbreak in the end.
Maybe I'll live a life of regret,
Potential regret in future life choices.
And maybe I'll give much more than I get
Possibility of giving more than receiving.
But nevertheless, I'm in love with you
Nevertheless, still being in love with you.
In spite of all I could do
Despite efforts to resist, falling in love with you.
I went ahead falling for you
No matter the emotional outcome, accepting it.
So if I laugh or I cry
Embracing the consequences, whether laughter or tears.
I made my bed, that's where I'll lie
Taking responsibility for one's decisions and their outcomes.
For what happens there's no excuse
No excuses for the consequences of one's actions.
I put my own head in the noose
Accepting the self-imposed consequences.
