It Kills Me
demxntia Lyrics

Don't put up a front with me
I don't want you to pretend to be someone you're not with me

Is this really how you want it to be?
Are you really content with the way things are between us?

I know you're lookin' for excuses to make other plans
I can tell you're trying to find ways to spend time with someone else

When he's not around to hold your hand
You only want me when your partner isn't there for you

And all the times that you called me Crying on the phone
You've reached out to me countless times, often in distress

Please don't sell yourself short 'Cause you're scared of being alone
Don't settle for someone who doesn't make you happy just because you're afraid of being alone

I don't wanna see you hurt anymore
I care about your well-being and don't want you to suffer anymore

It kills me Every time that we speak
It hurts me every time we talk and nothing changes

I know that you wanna be free
I understand that you want to be independent and not tied down

But you're trapped in your memories
Your past experiences are holding you back from moving forward

Take my hand, I need your attention
I want your full focus and presence with me

*uck your man, I'll teach him a lesson
I'll show you what real love feels like and make him look bad in comparison

If we speak in bodies, we can't tell nobody
Our physical connection is the only way we can express our feelings in secret

*uck you when you lonely, nah
I'll be there for you physically and emotionally whenever you need it

But I know she say that I am not enough (I'm not enough)
You've expressed that I'm not meeting all of your needs

In my heart, I know that I am not enough
I also feel like I'm not fully satisfying you

Baby girl, it kills me
It's painful for me to see you struggling with this

Ohh baby, it ain't hard to see
It's clear to me that you're happier when you're with me

You're happier when you're with me
Being together makes you feel more content and fulfilled

So don't put up a front with me
Please be real and honest with me

Is this really how you want it to be?
Let's examine if this is truly what you want and what's best for you

I know you're looking for excuses to make other plans
You're trying to justify seeing someone else instead of me

When he's not around to hold your hand
You only want me when you're feeling vulnerable and alone
