Lying to Love
Deceptive Embrace: Natasha Rose's Lying to Love Chronicles
Lyrics
La-la-la-love la-la-la-love
Repetition of "La-la-la-love" suggests a superficial or deceptive expression of love.
La-la-la-love la-la-la-love
-Baby I'm lying to love
Admission of deception in the name of love.
Sometimes I wonder why I'm still with you
Expressing doubt about the relationship, realizing a loss of connection and falling apart.
Why I'm coming over when my feelings ain't true
-I never thought that we would lose the spark
-But it seems that we have fallen apart
-Don't get all flustered when I hear your name
Not feeling excitement or nervousness anymore; a loss of initial passion or attraction.
Guess all of my butterflies have flown away
-I should tell you that it's over and do what's right
Knowing it's right to end the relationship but still succumbing to the emotions and continuing to be with the person.
But I find myself at your place every night
-I was so determined I could convince myself you're the one
Initially convinced of the partner's significance, but inner awareness contradicts this belief.
But deep down I know when I'm with you
-Baby I'm lying to love
Acknowledging the act of deceiving oneself and the partner in the name of love.
Every time I lie with you, lie with you
Reiterating the theme of lying to love, emphasizing the falsehood in the relationship.
Baby I'm lying to, lying to love
-I lie with you, lie with you
-But baby I'm lying to, lying to love
-I keep pretending what we have is true
Pretending the relationship is genuine, but in reality, faking emotions when together.
But I'm always faking it when I'm with you
-There's no electricity when we touch
No emotional connection during physical touch, questioning the purpose of physical intimacy.
So what's the point of touching so much
-I've had this feeling now for far too long
Long-standing realization that the relationship is misleading, contemplating the ethical dilemma of staying.
If I stay around I'd just be leading you on
-Starting to think that I've gone colourblind
Metaphorically seeing warning signs but choosing to ignore them, possibly due to emotional blindness.
'Cause your red flags turn green every damn time
-Every time I lie with you, lie with you
Repeating the admission of lying to love during intimate moments.
Baby I'm lying to, lying to love
-I lie with you, lie with you
-But baby I'm lying to, lying to love
-La-la-la-love la-la-la-love
Repetition of the deceptive nature of love, reinforcing the central theme.
Oh I'm lying to love
-La-la-la-love la-la-la-love
-In your bed with nothing in my head
Describing the emptiness and lack of emotion during moments of physical intimacy.
No feeling in my heart
-In your bed with nothing in my head
-No feeling in my heart, no
-In your bed with nothing in my head
-No feeling in my heart
-In your bed with nothing in my head
-No feeling in my heart
-Every time I lie with you, lie with you
Reiteration of the central theme, confessing the deception in the name of love.
Baby I'm lying to, lying to love
-I lie with you, lie with you
-But baby I'm lying to, lying to love
-La-la-la-love la-la-la-love
Final repetition of the deceptive act, emphasizing the persistent nature of the falsehood.
To love, to love, to love, to love, to love
-La-la-la-love la-la-la-love
-I'm lying to love
-Oh to love
Concluding that the love professed is a lie, acknowledging the deception.
