Analysis of No Love Lost



I hate that I love you
But you don’t love me
That i would do anything for you
But you can’t see

I hate that I can’t tell you what I feel
That deep down inside, i know my love is real
But you don’t see it, you don’t see me
But I know that you and I are meant to be

I hate I can’t tell you no
That i would deny you nothing
That you have my heart
And that you couldn’t something

I hate that you are always getting hurt
And that i always have to see you cry
That you could never see me how i see you
And that you can’t tell me why

I hate that we could never be
That you couldn’t even give us a shot
You couldn’t even try it
That you labeled me as something I’m not

I hate that i’m here...waiting for you
And you’re out there… chasing someone new
But to you , i’m just another guy from school
Just another guy, who’s forever your fool
