[Verse 1]
In the first verse, the singer acknowledges the entrapment of their relationship, where they feel unable to break free despite external pressures.

The line about having the partner in their imagination suggests a longing for their presence even when physically apart.

[Chorus]
The chorus encapsulates the central theme of the song, focusing on the intense emotions and conflicts inherent in the relationship. Despite knowing that being with their partner is not ideal, the singer confesses an inability to forget them. The repetition emphasizes the internal struggle and the acknowledgment of the partner’s role in their turmoil.

[Verse 2]
This verse delves deeper into the turbulent nature of the relationship. The singer describes being overwhelmed whenever their partner is around, yet consistently feeling broken and lost after their encounters. They question why their partner alternates between giving affection and withdrawing it, challenging conventional notions of love. The reference to obsession highlights the consuming nature of their feelings.

[Chorus]
The chorus repeats, reinforcing the internal conflict and the singer’s admission of being unable to let go despite knowing it’s not healthy. The repetition underscores the depth of their emotional turmoil and the persistent grip their partner has on them.

[Bridge]
In the bridge, the singer reflects on the paradoxical nature of their relationship. They liken their partner to both pain and treasure, acknowledging that not having them makes them feel incomplete. Despite the anguish caused by the relationship, there’s a sense of pleasure derived from the intensity of their feelings, defining it as “radical love.”

[Chorus]
Once again, the chorus repeats, underscoring the ongoing struggle and the acknowledgment of the partner’s significance in their life.

[Outro]
