Bound to Die
Passionate Struggle: Love's Unfulfilled Timing
Lyrics
Oh, if it wasn't so easy to love you
Expressing that loving the person isn't easy.
And damn if you could only be true
Expressing frustration that the person isn't truthful.
Then I wouldn't fell affected, perhaps a bit neglected
Feeling affected and somewhat neglected due to the lack of truthfulness.
Maybe that would be better after all
Speculating that feeling neglected might be better than the situation.
It's so easy to say when I know that you're distant
Admitting indifference when the person is distant.
That I don't care 'bout you at all
Claiming not to care when the person is far away.
But as soon as you're near me
Feeling an unexpected emotion when the person is nearby.
There's a feeling that shouldn't be there after all
Confusion over the arising feelings that shouldn't exist.
It's not the right time
Recognizing that it's not the right timing for a relationship.
But still the right feelings
Having genuine emotions despite the inappropriate timing.
A passionate streak
Feeling a strong, intense emotion.
Bound to die
Expressing that this intense emotion is likely to fade or end.
You say we've agreed that there's nothing between us
Agreeing that there's nothing between them as per the person's statement.
At least right now you tell me so
Accepting the person's claim about their relationship status.
But how am I supposed to know who I'm gonna turn to
Feeling uncertain about who to turn to despite the recent intimate moment.
When you kissed me five minutes ago?
Questioning the validity of the person's earlier statement after a recent kiss.
It's not the right time
Reiterating that it's not the right time for their emotions.
But still the right feelings
Confirming the authenticity of their feelings despite the timing.
A passionate streak
Describing intense emotions once again.
Bound to die
Repeating that these strong emotions are likely to fade or end.
Oh, if it wasn't so easy to love you
Reiterating that loving the person isn't easy.
And damn if you could only be true
Expressing frustration over the person's lack of honesty.
