Slip of The Tongue
Unveiling Betrayal: Slip of The Tongue by Andii Styron
Lyrics
Don't feel flattered
Expressing a lack of flattery or admiration.
cnd don't get hasty
Cautioning against impulsive actions.
cll your ex's told me
Referring to communication with mutual acquaintances.
You were crazy
Indicating past perceptions of erratic behavior.
You feed the same lines on all of these girls
Accusing the person of using similar deceptive lines on multiple individuals.
You promised me the universe
Recalling a promise of grand gestures and commitment.
But I got your f*cked up world instead
Expressing disappointment in receiving a chaotic and troubled reality instead.

I'm glad I can't hurt people like you do
Gratitude for not possessing the ability to hurt others as the person does.
cnd that I don't find joy in ruining what's right
Stating a lack of joy in ruining what is morally correct.
Not that I'm perfect but
Acknowledging personal imperfections.
ct least I can sleep at night
Highlighting the ability to maintain a clear conscience and peace at night.

Repetition, possibly emphasizing a recurring theme or emotion.
Now I don't wanna come across as mean
Expressing a desire not to appear unkind.
But remember how you told me everything
Reminding of past openness and honesty in communication.
Well, crazy how one slip of the tongue
Reflecting on the impact of a verbal mistake or betrayal.
Can make your life
Suggesting negative consequences on one's life.
Not so fun
Implying a loss of enjoyment or pleasure.
But betrayal doesn't look good on me
Rejecting the suitability of betrayal for oneself.
You got that covered
Observing that the person excels in betrayal.
I'm glad I can't hurt people like you do
Reiterating gratitude for not causing harm like the person does.
cnd that I don't find joy in ruining what's right
Reaffirming a lack of joy in disrupting what is right.
Not that I'm perfect but
Restating personal imperfection.
ct least I can sleep at night
Reiterating the ability to sleep peacefully at night.

You ain't worth it
Asserting that the person is not worth the emotional investment.
Not worth my time

Or worth a dime

Maybe a penny
