Lyrics
I have no words
I am unable to express my feelings or thoughts.
You stole them from me when you stole my heart
You took away my ability to articulate when you captured my heart.
Give 'em back
I request you to return my words.
Give 'em back you
A repeated plea to give back what was taken, addressing the person as a "monster."
Monster
The person is referred to as a monster, possibly indicating negative qualities or actions.
I don't wanna love you
Expressing a reluctance or unwillingness to love the person.
I don't want to need you
Not wanting to feel a dependency or necessity for the person.
Hmm
An interjection expressing contemplation or uncertainty.
And yet I know
A realization that the current feelings do not align with the typical nature of love.
This is not how love functions
Recognition that love should involve connecting with others emotionally.
I am capable of grasping the hand of another
Acknowledgment of the ability to form connections and experience physical touch.
And feeling warm flesh against my own
Describing the capacity for physical sensations associated with love.
I am capable of feeling butterflies take over my stomach
Ability to experience the excitement of love, likened to butterflies in the stomach.
As if the larvae had hatched there
Imagery of the hatching of larvae, possibly symbolizing the emergence of love.
Of some natural means
Suggesting that these feelings are natural and expected.
Yet my mind seems to gain great pleasure
Despite the capability for love, the mind distorts perceptions of it for pleasure.
From warping my perceptions of love
Indicating a tendency to manipulate one's own understanding of love.
To the point of romantic repulsion
Expressing a strong aversion to romantic feelings to the point of repulsion.
Which, clearly, many would argue is ruinous
Acknowledging that such a perspective may be considered destructive or harmful.
How dare I sully the name of love?
Rhetorical questions questioning the tarnishing of the concept of love.
How dare love have sullied me so?
Expressing frustration or resentment towards the impact of love on the individual.
I despise its actions towards me as my actions towards it
Disliking both the actions of love and the reciprocated actions towards love.
We fight like lovers
Describing a conflict or tension in the relationship resembling that of lovers.
Yet my heart cannot be quenched
Despite the internal conflict, the heart remains unfulfilled or unsatisfied.
By such an abstract concept
Acknowledging the elusive and abstract nature of love that persists despite negative experiences.
