Done With You
Breaking Free from Love's Illusion
Lyrics
Hey, what a shame you’re the only one to blame
Expressing disappointment and assigning blame to the listener for the current situation.
For this mess that you got us both into
Attributing a mess or problem to the listener and the speaker together.
I’ve had it with your games, things will never be the same
Stating dissatisfaction with the listener's games and predicting a permanent change in the relationship.
I know I’ll be better off without you
Expressing confidence that the speaker will be better off without the listener.
Our love was just a phase that'll wash out in the rain
Describing the love between the speaker and the listener as a temporary phase that will fade away.
Or the tears that you fake in your solitude
Implying insincere tears shed by the listener during moments of loneliness.
Your crying’s all in vain, there’s no getting off this train
Asserting that the listener's crying is futile, and there's no escape from the relationship.
One last kiss and I’ll bid you adieu
Mentioning a final kiss before bidding farewell to the listener.
I know, somehow, I’ll always remember the times I’ve had with you
Reflecting on positive memories with the listener, despite the decision to end the relationship.
But I know deep down it could never be worth all the hell you put met through
Acknowledging that the past experiences with the listener were not worth the emotional turmoil endured.
I did my part and I opened my heart but you never had a clue
Highlighting the speaker's efforts to open up emotionally and the listener's lack of understanding.
That you could be so wrong (This is my so long) I’m done with you
Conveying a strong decision to end the relationship, emphasizing that the listener was wrong, and the speaker is moving on.
You might as well move on, ‘cause to me you’re dead and gone
Declaring the listener as emotionally and romantically irrelevant.
And I’ve already banished your ghost
Asserting that the speaker has already moved on and exiled the memories of the listener.
You can tell all your friends that for us this is the end
Telling the listener to inform friends about the relationship's end.
You’re just another notch on my bedpost
Reducing the listener to a casual encounter, devoid of emotional attachment.
You thought that I was dense, but I finally got some sense
Indicating that the speaker was previously naive but has gained wisdom in dealing with the listener.
I can’t believe I let you get so close
Expressing disbelief at how close the speaker let the listener get.
And now that you’re alone, I hope it cuts you to the bone
Wishing emotional distress upon the listener now that they are alone.
And will leave you in the fire to roast
Using a metaphor of leaving the listener in the fire to emphasize the pain the speaker hopes the listener experiences.
I know, somehow, I’ll always remember the times I’ve had with you
Reiterating the lasting memories with the listener despite the decision to end the relationship.
But I know deep down it could never be worth all the hell you put met through
Emphasizing the realization that the past experiences with the listener were not worth the pain endured.
I did my part and I opened my heart but you never had a clue
Recalling efforts to open up emotionally to the listener, underscoring their lack of understanding.
That you could be so wrong (This is my so long) I’m done with you
Reaffirming the decision to end the relationship and expressing finality.
I know, somehow, I’ll always remember the times I’ve had with you
Reflecting on positive memories with the listener despite the decision to end the relationship.
But I know deep down it could never be worth all the hell you put met through
Acknowledging that the past experiences with the listener were not worth the emotional turmoil endured.
I did my part and I opened my heart but you never had a clue
Highlighting the speaker's efforts to open up emotionally and the listener's lack of understanding.
That you could be so wrong (This is my so long) I’m done with you
Concluding the song with a firm decision to move on from the listener and a play on words ("so long").
