Complicated
Kay Cook Lyrics

I don't know how I've been feeling lately
I am currently confused about my emotions and I am not sure how I feel.

There's just too much to say
I am having a hard time expressing my feelings and putting them into words.

(There's just too much to say)
The feeling of having too much to say is overwhelming me.

You're in my bed and in my head all the time, yeah
You are always on my mind, in both my thoughts and dreams.

I just can't stay awake
The constant thoughts of you are causing me to lose sleep.

Late-late-lately
I have been staying up late into the night recently because of my thoughts.

It has never been hard for you, but that's just
It seems like you have an easy time with everything that comes along in our relationship, but that may not be the case.

Something you always do
You have a habit of making things seem effortless in our relationship, which is both impressive and frustrating for me.

I can try but I don't know what I'd do
I am willing to try anything to keep our relationship strong, but I am afraid that my efforts won't be enough.

Without you
I am not sure if I would be able to cope or go on if you weren't in my life.

I just keep coming back for more
Even though I know that our relationship causes me pain, I am unable to resist it and keep coming back for more.

Guess I'm just getting on to the pain
I have become accustomed to the pain and have learned to expect it in our relationship.

Whenever I tell you to go
Sometimes I get so overwhelmed that I feel like I need space or want you to leave.

Just know that I want you to stay
Even though I may ask you to leave, I ultimately want you to stay and don't want our relationship to end.

Yeah, it's complicated
Overall, our relationship is complicated and confusing, with conflicting emotions and desires.

If I don't care enough, I'll lose you
If I don't put enough effort into our relationship, I am at risk of losing you.

But care too much then I'm the one who's hurt
If I care too much, I am more vulnerable to get hurt in our relationship.

Shouldn't want you, but I do, can't explain it
I know I should not want you, but I still do, and I cannot explain why.

Take you for what it's worth
I will appreciate our relationship for what it is and the value it brings to my life.

I don't want anyone else, just you
I only want you in my life and in our relationship, and no one else can compare.

But you don't ever hurt like I do
I feel like I am more emotionally invested than you are, and therefore, get hurt more often and more intensely.

Scared you only love me when you want to
I am afraid that you only love me when it is convenient for you or when you need something from me.

But know I'm always here to hold and fix you
Despite my fears and doubts, I am always here for you, to support you and fix any problems that may arise.

I wish I never learned what love is
Sometimes, I wish I did not understand or experience love, as it can cause incredible pain and heartache.

'Cause maybe then I wouldn't fall so hard
If I never understood love, I may not fall for someone as deeply as I have for you.

(Complicated)
Our relationship is incredibly complex and hard to explain to someone else.

Can't escape the way I love you
No matter how hard I try, I cannot change the way I love you or my feelings for you.

And baby, that just might be the worst part
The worst part of loving you is the fact that I cannot control my feelings and that they can cause me so much pain.

(Yeah, it's complicated)
Our relationship is so complicated that it is difficult to summarize or explain in just a few words.

Complicated
The entire song is about a complicated relationship and the feelings involved in loving someone who causes both pain and joy.
