Don't Beg This Time
Unveiling Heartbreak: Ellie Nelson's Anthem of Liberation
Lyrics
Hey how ya been?
Asking about the person's well-being and initiating a conversation.
Funny we haven't talked since way back when
Noticing a lack of communication for a long time and expressing it as amusing.
You promised me the world
Recalling a promise made by the person to provide everything.
You told me all your lines
Pointing out that the person shared deceptive or rehearsed statements.
You made me think that this was really my time
Feeling deceived into thinking that success or a significant moment was imminent.
Well now my favorite color is red
Stating a change in emotions, with red symbolizing a strong negative feeling.
When were you planning on telling me goodbye?
Questioning when the person planned to inform about the end of the relationship.
You gave me a drink to leave my mouth dry
Recalling an incident where the person offered a drink, leaving the speaker emotionally parched.
So when will you be a man?
Challenging the person to take responsibility and act maturely.
Tell it to my face you can't give me what you said
Demanding honesty and confrontation about the unfulfilled promises.
I never did anything to you
Asserting innocence and emphasizing the lack of wrongdoing from the speaker's side.
You think you did nothing wrong to lead me on then ghost me like this
Accusing the person of misleading and then abruptly ending the connection.
But when you see my name in lights
Anticipating future success and recognition.
Just don't beg this time
Advising the person not to seek reconciliation when the speaker achieves fame.
Just don't beg this time
Reiterating the plea for the person not to beg for a renewed connection.
Do you have a heart?
Questioning the person's emotional capacity or intentions.
Or do you enjoy tearin' dreams apart
Suspecting the person of enjoying causing disappointment and heartbreak.
Just to feel like you are special
Suggesting that the person destructively seeks a sense of uniqueness.
Feel like you have it all
Imagining the person feeling complete and accomplished falsely.
But I'm just waitin' to see you fall
Waiting for the person's downfall as a consequence of their actions.
Have your lies show what is true
Desiring the person's lies to reveal their true nature.
When were you planning on telling me goodbye?
Repeating the question about when the person intended to announce the end of the relationship.
Gave me a drink to leave my mouth dry
Recalling another instance of the person leaving the speaker emotionally unsatisfied.
So when will you be a man?
Reiterating the call for the person to maturely face the consequences of their actions.
Tell it to my face you can't give me what you said
Insisting on direct communication about the unfulfilled promises.
I never did anything to you
Emphasizing innocence and lack of wrongdoing in the speaker's actions.
You think you did nothing wrong to lead me on then ghost me like this
Accusing the person of misleading and abruptly ending the connection, echoing earlier sentiments.
But when you see my name in lights
Reiterating anticipation of future success and recognition.
Just don't beg this time
Repeating the advice for the person not to seek reconciliation in the future.
Just don't beg this time
Reiterating the plea for the person not to beg for a renewed connection, mirroring earlier lines.
Just don't beg this time
Repeating the advice for the person not to seek reconciliation in the future, echoing earlier sentiments.
