Contradiction

This song is about breaking up with someone and telling your friends and yourself that you would not get back with them...But deep in your mind you want to contradict yourself.

Contradiction

Baby I regret

Everything I did to you

Everything I said to you

Baby I regret

Ever breaking up with you

I won’t admit that to you

Or even my friends

 

[Bridge]

I’m scared

Of being called a liar

I’m scared

Of being called insane

 

[Chorus]

When I say I don’t want you

That I don’t need you

I lie

When I say I don’t think of you

That I don’t love you

I lie

I want you to be

My little contradiction

I want you to be

My little contradiction

 

Baby I wish

I never gave up on you

Never gave up on us

Baby I wish

That we were still together

I won’t admit that to you

Or even my friends

 

[Bridge]

I’m scared

Of being called a liar

I’m scared

Of being called insane

 

[Chorus]

When I say I don’t want you

That I don’t need you

I lie

When I say I don’t think of you

That I don’t love you

I lie

I want you to be

My little contradiction

I want you to be

My little contradiction

 

[Middle 8]

When we finally talk

I’ll never admit to you

That I still love you

When I see you on face book

I’ll never admit to you

That I still love you

I’m too proud for it

 

[Chorus - Soft]

When you say you want me

That you need me

You’ll lie

When you say you think of me

That you love me

You’ll lie

You want me to be

Your little contradiction

You want me to be

Your little contradiction 

And we’ll be so happy

As each other’s contradiction.
