I Can't
Emotional Turmoil: The Unspoken Pain of Love
Lyrics
I'll break your heart
I will cause emotional pain to you.
Then I'll pretend like I never met you
I will act as if our encounter never happened.
I'll pull us apart
I will create distance between us.
With all the things I never tell you
I will keep certain things hidden from you.
I'll lose my mind
I will struggle to comprehend my emotions.
Just trying to understand all these feelings
I will face difficulties understanding my feelings.
I'll make you cry
I will make you cry.
But I will just be happy it's ending
Despite causing pain, I will find happiness in the end.
And so I stay inside on Friday nights
I choose to stay indoors on Friday nights.
I promise you I have good intentions
I assure you that my intentions are good.
I hope you know but It's not personal
I hope you understand, but it's not personal.
I want you but I just can't risk it
I desire a relationship with you, but I fear the risk.
So don't ask me to stay
Don't request me to remain; I will be distant.
I'll be so far away
I will be far away before you have a chance to ask.
Before you even get a chance
Before any opportunity arises, I will create distance.
Don't know why I'm this way
I am uncertain why I behave this way.
All I can say is I just can't
All I can express is that I am incapable of doing otherwise.
You'll break my heart
You will cause emotional pain to me.
And I will never really forget you
I will never truly forget our connection.
You'll tear me apart
Your actions will deeply affect me.
And I'll be wishing I never met you
I will regret having met you.
So if you can't tell
If you can't perceive, I prefer solitude.
I like to keep to myself
I tend to keep my thoughts and emotions to myself.
I don't wanna be alone
I don't want to be alone, but it feels safer.
But it's so much easier to not get hurt
It's easier for me to avoid emotional pain and gain nothing.
And not get anything at all
Choosing not to risk getting hurt and gaining nothing at all.
So don't ask me to stay
Don't urge me to stay; I will be distant.
I'll be so far away
I will be far away before any request to stay.
Before you even get a chance
I will create distance before any chance to ask me to stay.
Don't know why I'm this way
I am uncertain why I behave this way.
All I can say is I just can't
All I can express is that I am incapable of doing otherwise.
