The Weakness in Me
Love's Dilemma: Navigating Affection, Guilt, and Choices
Lyrics
I'm not the sort of person who falls
I am not someone who easily falls in and out of love.
In and quickly out of love
Expressing a general reluctance to enter relationships hastily.
But to you I gave my affection
I gave you my affection right from the beginning.
Right from the start
Emphasizing the early and sincere investment in the relationship.
I have a lover who loves me:
I have another lover who loves me deeply.
How could I break such a heart?
Questioning the idea of breaking a committed and loving heart.
Yet still you gained my attention
You still captured my attention despite the existing love.
Why do you come here
Questioning the reason for the presence of the other person.
When you know I've got troubles enough?
Asking why the person comes when aware of existing troubles.
Why do you call me
Questioning the purpose of calling when unable to answer.
When you know I can't answer the phone?
Expressing a situation where lies are imposed against one's will.
Make me lie, when I don't want to
Making someone else a fool without their knowledge.
And make someone else some kind of an unknowin' fool
Feeling compelled to stare despite the inappropriate situation.
You make me stare, when I should not
Questioning if the other person is strong or if the weakness lies within oneself.
Are you so strong or is all the weakness in me?
Repeating the inquiry about the purpose of the person's presence.
Why do you come here
Pretending to be just passing by, creating a facade.
And pretend to be just passing by?
Expressing a strong desire to see and hold the person.
But I need to see you,
Feeling guilty and worried, facing inner turmoil.
And I mean to hold you
Describing the conflicting emotions of old and new love.
Tightly
A decision must be made, and someone will be hurt.
Feeling guilty, worried,
Expressing the need for both individuals despite the dilemma.
Waking from tormented sleep
Reiterating the question about the purpose of the other person's presence.
This old love has me bound
Highlighting the internal conflict and torment caused by past love.
But this new love cuts deep
Acknowledging the depth of impact from the new love.
If I choose now, I'll lose out
A decision is needed, but there is a fear of losing someone.
One of you has to fall
Indicating the inevitability of someone getting hurt.
But I need you, and you
Expressing the simultaneous need for both individuals.
Why do you come here
Repeating the question about the purpose of the other person's presence.
When you know I've got troubles enough?
Asking why the person comes during troubled times.
Why do you call me
Questioning the reason for calling when unable to answer.
When you know I can't answer the phone?
Reiterating the theme of being forced to lie against one's will.
Make me lie, when I don't want to
Making someone else a fool without their knowledge.
And make someone else some kind of an unknowin' fool
Feeling compelled to stare despite the inappropriate situation.
You make me stare, when I should not
Questioning if the other person is strong or if the weakness lies within oneself.
Are you so strong or is all the weakness in me?
Repeating the inquiry about the purpose of the person's presence.
Why do you come here
Pretending to be just passing by, creating a facade.
And pretend to be just passing by?
Expressing a strong desire to see and hold the person.
But I need to see you,
Feeling guilty and worried, facing inner turmoil.
And I mean to hold you
Describing the conflicting emotions of old and new love.
Tightly
A decision must be made, and someone will be hurt.
