Just because I sold my soul away

It's not up for grabs to take
Asserting that the sacrificed aspect of oneself is not available for others to exploit or claim.
Don't forget the flavor of my lips
Reminding someone not to forget the distinctive taste of the speaker's lips.
The words I Spoke that sound like this
Referring to the particular way the speaker's words are delivered.
I used to ask what i should get her
Recalling a past habit of seeking advice on what gift to give a significant other.
I thought it'd make it better
Expressing the belief that seeking such advice would improve the situation.
(So we'll go )

Cause we know that we don't really care
Acknowledging a lack of genuine concern or interest in a given situation.
(Oh No) don't show me love, just save me the despair
Preferring not to receive love but asking to be spared from despair.
An envelope of words I never said
Referring to a metaphorical envelope containing unspoken words.
They'll stay in my head

Might as well take it to the grave

I will never sell my soul away
