Not Twice
Over You: Breaking Free from Heartbreak
Lyrics
You think I'm broken over you
You believe I am emotionally shattered because of our breakup.
You think I'm cryin' black and blue
You believe I am visibly upset and emotionally bruised.
You hope that I still want to be with you, oh
You wish that I still desire to be in a relationship with you.
You think I'm cryin' in my room all by myself
You think I spend my time crying in isolation in my room.
You think I'm crying all alone and I need your help
You believe I am crying alone and in need of your assistance.
But I'm over you so get over yourself
I have moved on from our relationship, so you should move on too.
You tore me down already once, I don't need it twice
You've already damaged me once, and I don't need it to happen again.
I know you think you're good lookin' but you're cold as ice
You may think you're attractive, but your demeanor is cold and unfriendly.
Yeah I see right through all your white lies
I can see through all the deceptive things you say.
You ain't foolin' me, boy not twice
You're not deceiving me, and it won't happen again.
Not twice
Reiteration: It won't happen again.
You ain't foolin' me, boy not twice
Reiteration: You won't deceive me again.
You think I'll come running back to you
You assume I will return to you willingly.
Boy is that what you think I'm gonna do
Are you expecting me to beg and plead to come back to you?
Think I'm gonna be down on my knees begging please
Questioning the expectation of submissive behavior; refusing to play games.
Stop playing games
Expressing the decision to move on and not engage in emotional manipulation.
But I'm over you, I already moved on
I've moved on and am writing this song as a testament to that.
That's why I'm writing this song
The reason for the song is my independence from you.
I don't need you anymore so get out my life
I don't need you in my life anymore, so leave.
Yeah without you it feels pretty nice
Life is better without you; I enjoy my freedom.
You tore me down already once, I don't need it twice
Emphasizing the resistance to being torn down again.
I know you think you're good lookin' but you're cold as ice
Highlighting the contrast between perceived attractiveness and a cold personality.
Yeah I see right through all your white lies
Seeing through dishonesty and not falling for lies.
You ain't foolin' me, boy not twice
Reiterating that attempts to deceive won't work a second time.
Not twice, not twice, twice, twice
Reiteration: Not allowing deception to happen again, emphasized with repetition.
So get out of my life, life, life
Strongly stating the need for the person to leave one's life.
You think I'm broken over you
Repetition of the belief that I am emotionally broken over you.
You think I'm cryin' black and blue
Repetition of the image of crying and being emotionally affected.
But boy I'm so done with you, oh
Declaring the finality of being done with the person.
