Make You Love Me

(album: JT XVIII - 2020)

It was a perfect morning
With my girl Sayori
But we're no more than friends
She said, "Can I convince ya,
To check out the lit club?"
Yuck! And I said, "I guess"

To be honest, it was awesome
'Cause every girl there was fine
But now I've got a problem
Which one of 'em will be mine?

As soon as you stepped in the room
I heard your heart go doki-doki
Now who are you going to choose?
Baby, take my hand and I'll make you love me
I promise... I'll make you love me

I've heard all about you, I'm so glad to have met you
Can I be the one that you're gonna sit next to?
Read my poem full of dreams and hopes
I know you hang with Sayori but I'll show you the ropes
Under the surface, oh-oh
No one is perfect, oh-oh
So don't you ever let your feelings hide
My heart's an open book, come take a look inside

I can't get you out of my head (I don't want to)
A voice tells me I got no choice (that I love you)
I've read your destiny and I'm at the conclusion
Free will and agency are all but illusion, because

You're the very air that I breathe
If you leave, you're taking it from me
'Cause you keep my heart beating
I hate how much you're making me make you love me
Is it real, what I'm feeling?

Don't mean to rush it but you're a part of me
I can't promise that I won't succumb to jealousy
Why do you keep running, honey? You gotta trust me
You'll come to love how much I make you love me

(I can't get them out of my head
Not even mad about it)
Remember...

Literature gives us no definitive answers, so
How do you interpret cryptic words in my stanzas?
My blood is the ink and this sword is the pen
From my heart flows poetry, let's show all our friends

You must embrace your depression
Because pain can create an impression
To suffer is the artist's true catalyst
The greatest agony is simply to exist

Now you can't get me out of your head (how you want me)
A voice saying you've got no choice (and you love me)
I've read your destiny and I'm at the conclusion
'Cause your autonomy is nothing but a fucking illusion, because

You're the very air that I breathe
If you leave, you're taking it from me
'Cause you keep my heart beating
I hate how much you're making me make you love me
Is it real, what I'm feeling?

Don't mean to rush it but you're a part of me
I can't promise that I won't succumb to jealousy
Why do you keep running, honey? You gotta trust me
You'll come to love how much I make you love me

(You're the very air that I breathe
Keep my heart beating
I can't get them out of my head
Not even mad about it)
I'll make you love me

I am the personification of your sickest obsessions
I am the manifestation of your darkest fantasies
But you're not evil, you're human, you're an animal
Now love me... love you until you die

I'll make you love me
