[English]

I need to feel something

And I need to feel something

I need to feel something, yeah

I need to feel something

'Cause, damn, it's so good

And, damn, you're so bad

I hit it so good

I'll make it talk back

You tell me it's mine

You know I like that

I'm reading your signs

Until you climax

I need to feel something

And I need to feel something

I need to feel something, yeah

I need to feel something

I just think it's funny that you on the same page

You usually call me, act like you don't know me

Somethin' changed

I just think it's funny that you don't feel pain

You're so numb to pain

Love has changed, but

Something's strange

I remember all them times, baby

Baby, undress, I'm talkin' rough sex

I'm gon' stress you

You call me names they wouldn't know me as

I pull your hair back

You start to act bad, oh

'Cause, damn, it's so good (so good)

And, damn, you're so bad (so bad)

I hit it so good (so good)

I'll make it talk back

You tell me it's mine (mine, oh, mine)

You know I like that

I'm reading your signs

Until you climax

I need to feel something (feel something)

I need to feel something (I need to feel)

I need to feel something, yeah (feel something)

I need to feel something, woah-woah

Oh-oh-oh

You in charge, girl, I need that

I need to, I need to feel something

Oh-oh

I just wanna feel something

I just wanna, I just wanna feel some

Feel something, feel something

Key Grammar Structures

• I need to feel something

  ➔ Modal verb + infinitive

  ➔ "Need to" expresses a requirement or strong desire. The infinitive "feel" follows the modal verb "need".

• You tell me it's mine

  ➔ Reported speech/Indirect statement + possessive pronoun

  ➔ The sentence reports what 'you' say. "It's mine" is a statement attributed to 'you', using the indirect speech structure. 'Mine' functions as a possessive pronoun.

• I'm reading your signs

  ➔ Present continuous for ongoing action/interpretation

  ➔ The present continuous ("am reading") doesn't necessarily mean the action is happening *right now*, but rather that it's an ongoing process of interpretation. The 'signs' are being analyzed.

• Until you climax

  ➔ Subordinating conjunction 'until' + verb in base form

  ➔ "Until" introduces a time clause, indicating the duration of a preceding action. 'Climax' is used as a verb here, meaning to reach the peak of sexual arousal.

• I just think it's funny that you on the same page

  ➔ That-clause as subject complement + colloquial omission of 'are'

  ➔ The entire 'that you are on the same page' functions as the subject complement of 'think'. The 'are' is often dropped in informal speech. 'On the same page' is an idiom meaning to have the same understanding.
