Eternal Return
Eternal Return: Love's Unyielding Cycle
Lyrics
I guess I always kinda knew
I had a sense that there were issues in the relationship.
That this boy got issues, got them too
Acknowledging that the partner has problems.
Fear of commitment, heard it, nothin' new
Aware of the fear of commitment, not surprised by it.
But still, I held on, I held on too soon
Despite the issues, I clung to the relationship prematurely.
Warned by my mother
My mother warned me about the relationship.
Warned by my sister
My sister also cautioned me about the relationship.
But I don't want no other
Despite warnings, I don't want anyone else.
Even though he kissed her
Even though he kissed another person.
So intense, it's strong now
The emotions are intense and powerful now.
Can't reject, I'm gone now
Unable to resist, I'm deeply involved now.
I know this love is gonna burn
Acknowledging that the love is going to be painful.
It is an eternal return
Describing the relationship as an eternal cycle of ups and downs.
Return, return, return
Reiteration of the eternal return theme.
It is an eternal return
-Return, return, return
-My thoughts, they runnin' through my head
My thoughts are consumed by the situation.
Actions can’t keep up to what you said
Your actions don't align with your words.
You use words, but eyes don’t lie
Words may say one thing, but the eyes reveal the truth.
You keep pretending you’re all mine
You pretend to be mine, but it's not true.
I guess I know, I am aware
I'm aware that someone else is present when I'm not around.
That she’s around when I’m not there
Acknowledging the presence of another person when absent.
Warned by my brother
My brother warned me about the relationship.
Warned by my sister
Reiteration of the sister's warning.
But I don't want no other
Despite warnings, I'm committed to this person.
Even though he kissed her
Despite him kissing someone else.
So intense, it's strong now
Emotions are intense and powerful in the present moment.
Can't reject, I'm gone now
I'm unable to resist, deeply involved now.
I know this love is gonna burn
Anticipating the painful nature of the love.
It is an eternal return
Reiteration of the eternal return theme.
Return, return, return
-It is an eternal return
-Return, return, return
Expressing the desire to rewind time and fix things.
How do I rewind?
-Cuz I feel you, I do see you
-Know your heart, but I can’t heal you
Acknowledging understanding of the partner's heart but unable to heal.
I, I, I
Repetition of personal pronoun "I," emphasizing individual struggle.
Can’t go back in time
Acceptance that going back in time is not possible.
Oh this might go fuck me up
Anticipating that the situation might have negative consequences.
I can’t see no, no way to stop
-No way to stop
No way to stop the inevitable outcome.
Warned by my mother
Reiteration of warnings from mother and sister.
Warned by my sister
-But I don’t want no other
-Even though he kissed her
Despite him kissing someone else, I remain committed.
So intense, it’s strong now
Intense emotions persist, and I am deeply involved.
Can’t reject, i’m gone now
Resistance is futile; I'm fully committed.
I know this love is gonna burn
Acknowledging the inevitable pain in the love.
It is an eternal return
Reiteration of the eternal return theme.
Return, return, return
-It is an eternal return
-Return, return, return
Final reiteration of the eternal return theme.
It is an eternal return
-Return, return, return
-It is an eternal return
-Return, return, return
