Forced Love

Sebadoh · Bubble & Scrape [1993]

She don't need the guilt, she don't need the pressure

But she craves a guilty pleasure

She has no conscience, call her a seeker

Let her know if she can please you, she's eager to please you



Pit bull, heart breaker, forced love dictator

Is she as shallow as she seems?

Sweet, yet heartless, mindful, yet thoughtless

Left a kiss to find a conflict of interest



Gave myself away by what I didn't say

I tried to talk but my pride got in the way

And I would never dare to break her heart

Too scared and selfish to watch my security fall



Pit bull, heart breaker, forced love dictator

The boy that crippled all her dreams

Sweet, yet heartless, mindful, yet thoughtless

Left a kiss to find a conflict of interest



And I would never dare

To break her heart

Too scared and selfish

To watch my security fall



Take me back, I'm not proud

To share the glory if I'm allowed to

'Cuz nothing can be lost

This magic never existed



I hope I never miss it

Leave it alone, let it die

It can't be worth the pain we've hidden

Nothing will be lost



A love that couldn't be trusted

Is it worth the time that we'll abuse?

Is it worth the time that we'll abuse?

Is it worth the time that we'll abuse?
