I can't breathe
I can't sleep without you I'm lost
In this hell alone
So I pray
That I'll find the light
Can I change
Will I be alright?
If I could only clear my mind
Leave all this madness far behind
I don't want to want you
But I hate to say I do
I can't help the way I feel for you
I don't need to need you
But what am I supposed to do
I can't help the way I feel for you
We were good
We were doing alright
In those days
There were beautiful nights
But the scars
In your heart blinded you from the start
Not a thing I could do
If I could have helped you save your mind
Leave all your darkness far behind [ Lyrics from: http://www.lyricsmode.com/lyrics/l/lesley_roy/i_dont_want_to_want_you.html ]
I don't want to want you
But I hate to say I do
I can't help the way I feel for you
I don't need to need you
But what am I supposed to do
I can't help the way I feel for you
Just can't let go
We can't lose and we can't win
This game we're playing in
Look at us now the shape we're in
It's over
Over
I guess it's over
It's over
No I don't want to want you
But I hate to say I do
I can't help the way I feel for you
I don't need to need you
But what I am I supposed to do
I can't help the way I feel for you
Oh oh
Oh no
I don't want to want you
I don't need to need you
But what am I supposed to do
I can't help the way I feel for you
Just can't let go
Just can't let go
This song is about how much she wants to stop thinking/loving the person, but she can't... "i can't help the way i feel for you" that's it. She has summed up everything perfectly.
I think the story in this song is really good- in that she needs to "clear [her] mind/ leave all this madness behind".. Whereas for him, he needs to leave his "darkness" behind. Aww they're perfect for each other actually...
