Lyrics
Why do I have to love you?
Questioning the necessity of love
When I'm afraid to
Expressing fear associated with love
Know the real truth of your heart
Desire to understand the genuine feelings of the other person
Why do you have to need me?
Raising a question about the need for reciprocation
Is it beastly that it all felt wrong
Wondering if the relationship felt wrong from the beginning
from the start
Suggesting that something was amiss from the start
Oh, I don't owe you anything
Declaring a lack of obligation in the relationship
Not anything, at all
Emphasizing the absence of owed favors
At least that's
Expressing a personal belief or coping mechanism
What I tell myself, that's what I tell myself,
Repeated self-reassurance as a mantra
that's what I tell myself, that's what I tell myself
-At least that's
Reiteration of self-talk for reinforcement
What I tell myself, that's what I tell myself,
Continued repetition of self-assurance
that's what I tell myself, that's what I tell myself
-Why couldn't anyone else see?
Questioning the perception of others in the situation
Was it just me, or was it clear
Reflecting on the possibility of personal misjudgment
you were wrong
Accusing the other person of being wrong
How will I learn to move on
Contemplating the challenge of moving forward
We're too far gone
Expressing a belief that the relationship has reached an irreparable state
but I still can't shake this bond
Acknowledging difficulty in breaking emotional ties
Oh, I don't owe you anything
Reiterating the absence of owed obligations
Not anything, at all
Emphasizing the lack of owed favors
At least that's
Reaffirming the personal coping mechanism or belief
What I tell myself, that's what I tell myself,
Repeated self-reassurance as a coping mechanism
that's what I tell myself, that's what I tell myself
-At least that's
Reiteration of self-talk for reinforcement
What I tell myself, that's what I tell myself,
Continued repetition of self-assurance
that's what I tell myself, that's what I tell myself
