Unrequited Devotion: The Heartrending Tale of Emotional Tug-of-War
Lyrics
She says she doesn't need you
She claims independence, insisting she doesn't need you.
But it'd be great if you could pick her up
Expresses a desire for assistance, subtly contradicting her earlier statement.
She says she doesn't want you
Reiterates disinterest in you.
But be there for her, when she's in a rut, when she's down or feeling hot
However, she expects your support during tough times, emphasizing a contradictory stance.
She spit on your heart now
She hurts you emotionally, and yet questions your sadness without acknowledging her actions.
And then she wonders why you look so down
Displays a lack of appreciation, taking everything for granted.
Takes everything for granted
Predicts that she will realize what she lost eventually.
She'll see what she missed, before too long, there's no doubt she'll come along
Then she reels you back in
Reason being your role as a reliable friend.
Because you're such a good friend
Encourages forgetting, pretending, and implies an endless cycle.
Forget a while, pretend
Suggests an ongoing situation with no resolution.
This is never gonna end
She makes you feel like dirt now
Acknowledges that feeling like dirt is preferable to feeling worthless.
But I guess it's better than feeling worthless
Expresses a desire for her to leave, but acknowledges being trapped due to emotional ties.
You want her to go away now
But her claws are too deep, you can't move, yeah you're stuck here for good
Repeats the cycle of pulling you back in, highlighting your role as a steadfast friend.
Then she reels you back in
Emphasizes the never-ending nature of the situation.
Because you're such a good friend
Reaffirms your role as a reliable and enduring friend.
Forget a while, pretend
This is never gonna end
Continues to stress the unending nature of the relationship.
Yeah you're such a good friend
Repeated affirmation of your role as a good friend.
Yeah you're such a good friend
Oh you're such a good friend
Reiterates the enduring quality of your friendship.
