Toxic Lover
Unveiling the Poisonous Dance of Love in "Toxic Lover" by Chris Wade
Lyrics
Well there she goes again
Expressing the departure of a woman.
Left without saying goodbye
Highlighting her exit without a farewell.
And I don't care where she's been
Indifference towards her past actions or history.
As long as she's here with me tonight
Emphasizing the desire for her current presence.
But one thing I don't like
Expressing discomfort with the lack of consistent rules.
Is how the rules don't apply
Commenting on a perceived imbalance in rules between partners.
To your side like they do mine baby
Comparing the unequal application of rules in the relationship.
Tooth for a tooth, eye for an eye
Referring to the idea of retaliation, seeking fairness.
You know it's true
Acknowledging the truth of the situation.
And I know it too
Confirming mutual awareness of the relationship's issues.
That we just ain't good for each other
Admitting that the relationship is not healthy for either party.
And nobody's loving you
Recognizing a lack of love from both sides.
Like nobody's loving me too
Emphasizing the absence of reciprocated affection.
The way we know that we loved each other
Reflecting on the past love that existed between them.
Toxic Lover
Labeling the relationship as toxic.
Well there she goes again
Repeating the observation of the woman's departure.
Said this'll be her last time
Stating that this departure is claimed to be the last.
But after all the time that we spent
Highlighting the substantial time invested in the relationship.
You left me for him and you know that ain't right
Expressing dissatisfaction with the woman leaving for someone else.
(yeah you know it ain't right)
Reiterating the disapproval of her actions.
And one thing I don't like
Repeating discomfort with the perceived lack of consistent rules.
Is how the rules don't apply
Commenting on the unequal application of rules in her life.
To your life like they do mine baby
Comparing the disparity in rules between their lives.
Tooth for a tooth, eye for an eye
Reiterating the desire for fairness and reciprocity.
You know it's true
Acknowledging the truth of the situation once again.
And I know it too
Confirming mutual awareness of the relationship's issues again.
That we just ain't good for each other
Reaffirming that the relationship is detrimental to both.
And nobody's loving you
Restating the absence of love from either side.
Like nobody's loving me too
Emphasizing the lack of reciprocated affection once more.
The way we know that we loved each other
Recalling the past love shared between them.
Toxic Lover
Reiterating the toxic nature of the relationship.
You know it
Affirming the mutual understanding of the relationship's toxicity.
And I know it
Repeating the acknowledgment of the truth about the relationship.
