If I stay, I know I'm that I'ma share your love and that I couldn't take.
And if I go, we'll be apart and I know my heart would surely break.
So, what difference does it make, which one I choose?
Either way I lose.

Though I know, my love is true.
I'd die if you ever told me good-bye.
Ever told me good-bye.
And I know, she loves you too.
She would do, the same as I.

What difference does it make, which one I choose?
Either way I lose.
Either way I lose.
Either way I lose.

    I love the recording I have of this song. The male back-up singers with that "bum. bum. bum. bumbumbum bum. bum. bum. bumbumbum" bass line, the palpable emotion with which Nina sings, the crescendo on "the very same as I." Ugh, so good. What a shitty situation to be in though, lyrically. It's about trying to love a philanderer - keeping her hanging on with his charms, and simultaneously gallivanting about town with other women he's treating just as superficially nicely.

This song is def a twin to "Unfair" (a song she has been quoted as saying is about falling in love with someone who is already in a relationship) so it is presumably about the same person. Given the references to buying an apartment and not being able to see her love interest "after tonight," it's most likely that she's moving away and she'll "wait a day to break the bad news" (i.e. notifying him that she's leaving once she's already gone). And, of course, the fact that she sees in him a fellow "idealist" and "dreamer" (terms commonly given to people with the INFP personality on the Myers–Briggs Type Indicator (MBTI)) portends that she'll always be left wondering if they would've been perfect together.

This song seemingly tackles the methods of deception those who manipulate others use to get victims to follow their demands, as well as diverting attention away from important issues. They'll also use it as a means to convince people to hate or kill others by pretending acts of terrorism were committed by the enemy when the acts themselves were done by the masters of control to promote discrimination and hate. It also reinforces the idea that these manipulative forces operate in various locations, infiltrating everyday life without detection, and propagate any and everywhere. In general, it highlights the danger of hidden agendas, manipulation, and distraction, serving as a critique of those who exploit chaos and confusion to control and gain power, depicting a cautionary tale against falling into their traps. It encourages us to question the narratives presented to us and remain vigilant against manipulation in various parts of society.
