Satisfied
MAR-K Lyrics

I don't think I can be satisfied
I feel like I will never be truly content

I think I've been hurt too many times
I believe that I have experienced too much pain

I stay in my mind all of the time
I constantly dwell on my thoughts and emotions

And baby, I just tell you that I'm fine
I pretend to be okay, for your sake

I'm not alright
I am not okay

What's between us is yours not mine
The responsibility for the state of our relationship lies with you, not me

If you want to be with me
If you desire a relationship with me

There's certain things that you must know
There are specific things you need to understand

There's certain things that you must follow
There are certain rules or expectations you must adhere to

I keep on sacrificing sanity
I continue to compromise my mental well-being

Thinking if you think of me at night
Wondering if you ever have thoughts of me during the night

See, I've meet your every need
I have fulfilled all your needs

But you have not met any of mine
But you have not fulfilled any of mine

Yeah, I can't sleep in bed
I struggle to find rest in bed

Yeah, I toss and turn
Yeah, I continuously move around restlessly

My head going crazy
My mind is filled with chaos

I never learn
I never seem to learn from my mistakes

I feel lost
I feel disoriented and unsure

But stay by your side
Yet, I choose to remain by your side

Even though it hurts
Despite the pain it causes

Yeah, I tell you the lies
Yeah, I deceive you with lies

Cause you want us to work
Because you want our relationship to succeed

At what cost
But at what expense or sacrifice?

Maybe I'm afraid of being lonely
Perhaps I have a fear of being alone

Maybe I just need someone to hold me
Maybe I simply crave someone to comfort me

It's either you or her yeah, that's what my momma told me
According to my mother, it's a choice between you or another person

Maybe with the old me
Possibly with my previous self

But I got plans, so I tell myself I'm sorry
However, I have future aspirations, so I apologize to myself

I love the way your body looks
I am attracted to your physical appearance

Tell me we're forever
Assure me that our relationship is everlasting

I love the dedication
I appreciate your commitment

My needs are met never
My needs are never fulfilled

You told me you would change, but you never do
You made promises of change, but you never follow through

So I'm questioning every time you say I love you
Therefore, I doubt the authenticity of every time you express your love for me

Maybe I'm afraid of being lonely
Perhaps I have a fear of being alone

Maybe I just need someone to hold me
Maybe I simply crave someone to comfort me

I don't think I can be satisfied
I don't believe I can find contentment

I think I've been hurt too many times
I feel that I have experienced an excessive amount of pain

I stay in my mind all of the time
I constantly remain trapped in my thoughts

And baby, I just tell you I am fine
And darling, I only reassure you that I am okay

I'm not alright
I am not okay

What's between us is your not mine
The responsibility of our relationship falls on you, not me

I'm not fine
I am not okay

I'm not alright
I am not okay

I'm not fine
I am not okay

I'm not alright
I am not okay

I'm not fine
I am not okay

I'm not alright
I am not okay

What's between us is yours, not mine
The responsibility of our relationship lies with you, not me

I'm not fine
I am not okay

I'm not alright
I am not okay

I'm not fine
I am not okay
