ADELANTIE - Love Causes Pain

Love Causes Pain Verse 1 You’ve been careless more than once Left it hanging, cut too deep Say it small but it stays with me Turns in places I can’t reach I don’t say it how it feels I come sharp instead of true What I carry turns to anger Before it ever reaches you Pre-Chorus There are reasons—but I twist them By the time they leave my mouth Chorus If you could see yourself the way I do… You wouldn’t question every move… If I could see myself that clear… I wouldn’t hurt you just to keep you near… Love… is unavailable… because of fear. Verse 2 You don’t always see the weight Of the things you leave unsaid And it hits me where I can’t explain So I react to it instead I don’t show you what it does I don’t say “this broke me down” I let fear take over first Then I turn it into sound Pre-Chorus I want to say it clean and simple But it never comes out right Chorus If you could see yourself the way I do… You wouldn’t question every move… If I could see myself that clear… I wouldn’t hurt you just to keep you near… Love… is unavailable… because of fear. Bridge It hurt enough to make me disappear I didn’t—but it brought me near And I hate that what you get from me Is anger, not what’s underneath I don’t want to lose you to Someone easier, someone new So this is me before it ends Saying it how I should have then Breakdown I love now And I’ll keep doing See me through I’m not that shouting, insane I’m in love—but it causes pain Final Chorus If you could see yourself the way I do You wouldn’t question every move If I could see myself that clear I’d show you love instead of fear Love is unavailable because of fear Outro I just needed you to know. Before it disappeared. Before It DISAPPEARS. Lyrics & Composed by ADELANTIE © 2026 ADELANTIE. All Rights Reserved.
