You said you loved me
You said you loved me
I don't get what love is
At one moment it feels great
Then I get this warm sensation in my chest
These butterflies in my stomach tickling
But the other moment it hurts
As if thousands of tiny thorns are stuck in my heart
As if I'm drowing inside of these tears of despair and distress
You said you loved me
That you didn't want to hurt me
But you know, these wounds are already there
Because you ignored me, neglected me
There is this lack of care and concern
I feel like it's hopeless, desperate, forlorn and dead-end
Because love has to come from two sides
And I feel like there's barely anything coming from you
I don't mean to upset or upbraid you
I don't mean to reproach or enrage you
I just want to let you know that I'm done with it
Done with waiting for more wounds
It's time that you start putting some effort into me
And if you don't, that's fine too
because then I can open my heart for others
Others that are willing to open their hearts for me too.
And I can let my cuts and bruises heal again
At one moment it feels great
Then I get this warm sensation in my chest
These butterflies in my stomach tickling
But the other moment it hurts
As if thousands of tiny thorns are stuck in my heart
As if I'm drowing inside of these tears of despair and distress
You said you loved me
That you didn't want to hurt me
But you know, these wounds are already there
Because you ignored me, neglected me
There is this lack of care and concern
I feel like it's hopeless, desperate, forlorn and dead-end
Because love has to come from two sides
And I feel like there's barely anything coming from you
I don't mean to upset or upbraid you
I don't mean to reproach or enrage you
I just want to let you know that I'm done with it
Done with waiting for more wounds
It's time that you start putting some effort into me
And if you don't, that's fine too
because then I can open my heart for others
Others that are willing to open their hearts for me too.
And I can let my cuts and bruises heal again
