Forget It, It's a Mystery
Love's Paradox: Navigating Emotional Turmoil in Lisa Germano's 'Forget It, It's a Mystery'
Lyrics
I hate you cause I love you
I have negative feelings toward you because I have strong positive feelings for you.
I need you cause I want to
I feel a necessity for you because I desire to be with you.
Forget it it's a mystery
I give up understanding it; it remains a puzzle or enigma.
And I'm a little worried
I am somewhat anxious or concerned.
I hurt so deep when you resist
I experience profound emotional pain when you resist or reject me.
Can't feel a thing except how much
I am emotionally numb, except for the intense hatred and love I feel for you.
I hate you cause i love you
Reiteration of conflicting emotions: hating because of love.
An irritating sucker
Self-aware acknowledgment of being annoying or frustrating.
I'm talking about myself, see
I am referring to myself; recognizing personal flaws.
I'm manic since you made me
I am in a state of heightened energy and mood due to your influence.
I know you like perfection
Understanding that the person likes things to be perfect.
Variety, erections.
Mentioning different aspects: variety and sexual arousal.
I love you cause I hate me
Loving you because it leads to self-hatred.
Oblivious and hurting
Unaware and in pain.
Emotionally stuck here
Feeling emotionally trapped or stuck.
An irritating sucker
Self-aware acknowledgment of being annoying or frustrating (repeated).
Do you remember last year when you caught it
Recalling a past event involving deception and stress.
Some lie 'bout stress and I ate it
Referring to a lie about stress and its consumption.
I don't want to hate you
Expressing a desire not to hate but to love.
I really want to love you
Affirmation of the wish to love rather than hate.
I liked it when you hurt me
Enjoyed the experience of being hurt by you.
Forget it it's a mystery
Reiteration that understanding or explaining is futile; it remains a mystery.
