Everything You Said
Love's Battle: Navigating Turbulent Emotions in 'Everything You Said' by Guapo Tank
Lyrics
Oh you're spiteful
Expressing resentment or ill-will
Malicious intention stuck in a cycle
Having harmful intentions stuck in a repetitive pattern
I might be superstitious but you and I know
Possibly superstitious, acknowledging a history and understanding between the speaker and the subject
We built up all them bridges before the cyclone
Building bridges before facing a difficult situation (cyclone)
Because love is war
Describing love as a war
Oh a tightrope
Comparing the relationship to walking a tightrope, implying precariousness
I feel I can't get a grip of what we insight for
Struggling to understand the purpose of the relationship
I hold your hand as we lay here watching the sky fall
Symbolically holding onto the relationship despite challenges
I just hope we can take the night off baby lay here for a while
Hoping for a break from the difficulties, seeking solace in each other's company
Oh ignore everything you said
Advising to ignore the negative things said previously
I'm messing with your head
Playing mind games or creating confusion
I'm messing with your head
Continuing to mess with the other person's thoughts
Head head head
Repeating the impact on the head, emphasizing mental manipulation
Oh ignore everything you said
Reiterating the advice to ignore previous statements
I'm messing with your head
Continuing the psychological play
I'm messing with your head
Persisting in creating confusion or doubt
Head head head
Emphasizing the mental impact
Can I lay you down
Expressing a desire to be intimate and vulnerable
Lay you down
Repeating the desire to lay down, possibly seeking comfort
I need some company
Expressing a need for companionship
Maybe now
Suggesting a moment for connection
Maybe now
Repeating the desire for a deeper connection
We can be more than friends
Expressing a desire to move beyond a platonic relationship
How do you expect me to love you when you ain't showing signs
Questioning the lack of reciprocation or commitment
My heart's in the palm of my hands but you just acting so blind to it
Expressing frustration at the other person's apparent disregard for the speaker's feelings
Do you want diamonds
Possibly questioning materialistic desires
Or is it rubies
Asking about preferences, highlighting confusion
You're so confusing
Expressing frustration with the other person's indecision
You're picking and choosing
Noting the selective nature of the other person
Yeah and I'm still hurt
Expressing emotional pain
I dig my grave and you add the dirt
Metaphorically contributing to the pain in the relationship
And I tried to change just to make it work
Attempting to change for the better but facing difficulties
But you're deranged and you made it worse so
Describing the partner as disturbed and making the situation worse
Oh ignore everything you said
Repeating the advice to ignore previous negative statements
I'm messing with your head
Continuing to play with the other person's mind
I'm messing with your head
Reiterating the act of causing mental confusion
Head head head
Emphasizing the impact on the head
Oh ignore everything you said
Advising again to ignore past negative words
I'm messing with your head
Persisting in creating mental confusion
I'm messing with your head
Continuing the act of messing with the other person's head
Head head head
Emphasizing the impact on the head
