Love Is an Angry Thing
Love's Deception: Unraveling the Anguish within Anthony Hamilton's Melody
Lyrics
Love is an angry thing
Love is filled with frustration and hostility.
It'll tear your heart to pieces
Love has the power to deeply hurt and emotionally devastate you.
And love, such a crazy thing
Love is unpredictable and irrational.
It'll break you down when you least expect it
Love can cause emotional breakdowns unexpectedly.
Though I knew about love
Despite having knowledge about love,
I've been decieved
The speaker has been misled or tricked in the context of love.
Love don't love nobody
Love doesn't favor or show affection to anyone, especially the speaker.
Certainly not me
The speaker feels unloved by love itself.
You used to have your way with me
The partner previously had dominance or control in the relationship.
We fought all the time
There were frequent conflicts or arguments in the relationship.
Misunderstandings
Misinterpretations or disagreements led to unforeseen consequences.
Led me to being blinsided
The speaker was caught off guard or surprised by something negative.
You knocked the wind out of me
The partner caused extreme emotional distress to the speaker.
How could you be so cruel?
The partner's actions seemed exceptionally harsh or unkind.
Love
Love, a concept that the speaker thought they comprehended fully.
Thought I knew it all
The speaker believed they understood love completely.
Yeah
However, the partner's actions contradicted the speaker's understanding of love.
Then you turned on me
Love can evoke anger and hostility.
Love is an angry thing
Reiteration of how love can deeply wound emotionally.
It'll tear your heart to pieces
Love has the capacity to cause severe emotional pain.
And Love, love such a crazy thing
Love has an unpredictable nature in stealing affection or trust.
It'll steal your heart when least expect it
The speaker's previous understanding of love was shattered by negative actions.
Thought I really knew love
The speaker's perception of love changed due to the partner's betrayal.
Till you turned on me
The partner deceived the speaker by lying.
Tellin' me lies
Blaming the speaker for things they didn't do.
Putting the blame on me
The speaker became a victim of the partner's deceit or manipulation.
I became your victim
The speaker lost perspective on what was morally correct.
Lost sight of what was right
The speaker's beliefs or values were compromised due to the relationship.
Now I barely believe you
The speaker doubts if the partner truly belonged to them.
were ever really mine
The speaker questions the genuineness of the partner's love.
You knocked the wind out of me
The partner's actions caused severe emotional distress.
And I was good to you
The speaker was kind and caring towards the partner.
Love
The speaker eventually found love.
I found love
Realizing that they were mistaken in understanding love previously.
You see, I thought I knew it all
The speaker believed they had finally found genuine love.
I found love
The partner's betrayal shattered the speaker's belief in love again.
Until your turned on me
Restating the destructive nature of love.
Love is an angry thing
Reiteration of love's ability to cause heartache.
It'll tear your heart to pieces
Repeating the idea that love can emotionally devastate.
And Love, love such a crazy thing
Reaffirming the unpredictability of love in stealing affection.
It'll steal your heart when least expect it
Stating the power of love to cause emotional breakdowns unexpectedly.
Love is an angry thing
Reiterating the distressing impact of love.
It'll tear your heart to pieces
Continued emphasis on love's ability to cause emotional turmoil.
See, love, love is a crazy thing
Love is depicted as an irrational and damaging force.
It'll break you down when you least expect it
Love can bring emotional breakdowns at unforeseen moments.
Say, oh love
Reiterating the intense and hostile nature of love.
Such an angry thing
Summarizing love
