Mad
Embracing Resentment: Brandon Colbein's 'Mad' Unveils the Power of Staying Angry
Lyrics
Don't say you're sorry for the things you said
Expressing a reluctance to accept an apology for hurtful words
Tell me you meant to make it hurt
Desiring acknowledgment that the pain caused was intentional
Don't say the anger clouded up your head
Rejecting excuses related to anger influencing hurtful actions
Tell me that you meant every word
Seeking confirmation that the hurtful words were genuine
The only way to walk away is to hate you
Stating that the only way to end the relationship is through hatred
I hate you, but I don't mean it
Expressing intense dislike but clarifying it may not be sincere
The only way to feel OK without you
Claiming that feeling okay without the person requires hating them
Is hate you, can't you see that
Emphasizing the need to recognize the necessity of hatred
I need to stay mad at you, mad at you
Stating the importance of staying angry to resist returning
So I won't come back
Declaring the intention to remain angry as a defense mechanism
I need to stay mad at you, mad at you
Reiterating the need to stay angry to avoid reconciliation
So I won't come back
Emphasizing the commitment to maintaining anger to prevent return
Forgetting who we used to be is half the battle
Highlighting the difficulty of forgetting the past relationship
We gotta break this for the sake of our survival
Expressing the necessity of ending the relationship for survival
So I need to stay mad at you, mad at you
Reiterating the importance of staying angry to resist returning
Go tell your mother it was all my fault
Instructing the ex-partner to blame the narrator for the breakup
Go tell your friends I broke your heart
Encouraging the spreading of a narrative blaming the narrator
I won't answer if you ever call
Declining to respond to attempts at communication
Making it easy makes it hard
Asserting that making things easy complicates the situation
The only way to walk away is to hate you
Reiterating that ending the relationship requires hatred
I hate you, but I don't mean it
Expressing strong dislike with a disclaimer of insincerity
The only way to feel OK without you
Claiming that feeling okay without the person requires hating them
Is hate you, can't you see that
Emphasizing the need to recognize the necessity of hatred
I need to stay mad at you, mad at you
Stating the importance of staying angry to resist returning
So I won't come back
Declaring the intention to remain angry as a defense mechanism
I need to stay mad at you, mad at you
Reiterating the need to stay angry to avoid reconciliation
So I won't come back
Emphasizing the commitment to maintaining anger to prevent return
Forgetting who we used to be is half the battle
Highlighting the difficulty of forgetting the past relationship
We gotta break this for the sake of our survival
Expressing the necessity of ending the relationship for survival
So I need to stay mad at you, mad at you
Reiterating the importance of staying angry to resist returning
Stay, all I wanna do is stay
Expressing a desire to stay but acknowledging the need to distance
But I gotta stay away from you, away from you
Acknowledging the necessity of staying away from the person
Stay, all I wanna do is stay
Expressing a desire to stay but acknowledging the need to distance
But I gotta stay away from, away from you
Acknowledging the necessity of staying away from the person
I need to stay mad at you, mad at you
Stating the importance of staying angry to resist returning
So I won't come back
Declaring the intention to remain angry as a defense mechanism
I need to stay mad at you, mad at you
Reiterating the need to stay angry to avoid reconciliation
So I won't come back
Emphasizing the commitment to maintaining anger to prevent return
Forgetting who we used to be is half the battle
Highlighting the difficulty of forgetting the past relationship
We gotta break this for the sake of our survival
Expressing the necessity of ending the relationship for survival
So I need to stay mad at you, mad at you
Reiterating the importance of staying angry to resist returning
