Mind Games
Unraveling Emotional Warfare: "Mind Games" by Coco Palms
Lyrics
I can't sleep at night
Expressing insomnia or emotional unrest during the night.
Dark Circles, under my eyes
Physical manifestation of stress or fatigue, with dark circles under the eyes.
Got a few things
Hinting at having various concerns or issues.
Got a few things on my mind, about you
Specifically, having thoughts and concerns about someone (possibly a romantic interest).
You're always one-sided
Describing the other person as consistently having a one-sided perspective.
In your selfish little world
Criticizing the person for being self-centered and oblivious to others.
Words sharp like daggers
Portraying the words spoken by the person as hurtful and cutting.
Diggin deep into my heart
Emphasizing the emotional impact of the person's words, penetrating deep into the speaker's heart.
Did it make you feel
Questioning the motivation behind the person's actions or words.
Did it make you feel…good?
Asking if the actions or words brought satisfaction or a positive feeling to the person.
Does it make you feel…good?
Repeating the question, possibly highlighting doubt or disbelief.
Oh no!
Expressing a sense of concern or dismay.
Keep playing those mind games
Encouraging the other person to continue playing manipulative or deceptive mental games.
Playing those mind games
Reiterating the encouragement for engaging in psychological games.
You're only gonna get so far
Warning that such games will have limits or consequences.
You're always one-sided
Repeating the observation of the other person's one-sided nature.
In your selfish little world
Reiterating criticism of the person's self-centered worldview.
Words sharp like daggers
Repeating the description of the person's hurtful words.
Diggin deep into my heart
Re-emphasizing the emotional impact of the person's words.
Did it make you feel
Repeating the question about the emotional effect of the person's actions or words.
