No Good
Breaking Free: Unveiling Toxic Love in Hamish Anderson's 'No Good'
Lyrics
Don't say you love me cause you know I don't go for that
Rejecting expressions of love due to personal aversion.
Cut me loose just to turn around and call me back
Experiencing a cycle of being released only to be called back.
Needed your helping hand
Seeking assistance from someone.
When I was drowning on dry land
Going through a difficult situation and needing support.
Now I see you're no good for me
Realization that the person is detrimental to one's well-being.
Now I see you're no good for me
Reiterating the understanding that the person is not good for the speaker.
Don't say you know me cause girl you'll find i'm not the same
Warning against assuming familiarity, as the speaker has changed.
I'm free from all your misery and your blame
Expressing freedom from the burdens of the person's negativity and accusations.
Walking that same line
Walking a familiar path but resisting succumbing to past patterns.
But I won't give in this time
Determined not to give in to the challenges this time.
Now I see you're no good for me
Reiterating the realization that the person is detrimental.
Now I see you're no good for me
Reiterating the understanding that the person is not good for the speaker.
It's hard to believe you aint nothing like you used to be
Expressing disbelief in the person's changed character.
So go ahead take your leave cause now I see what I should've seen
Encouraging the person to leave now that the speaker sees the truth.
What I should've seen
Emphasizing the importance of recognizing the truth.
Don't say you love me cause you know I don't go for that
Repeating the rejection of love due to personal aversion.
Cut me loose just to turn around and call me back
Experiencing a cycle of being released only to be called back (repeated theme).
Needed your helping hand
Seeking assistance from someone (repeated theme).
When I was drowning on dry land
Going through a difficult situation and needing support (repeated theme).
Now I see you're no good for me
Final realization that the person is detrimental, clear and unequivocal.
Clear as can be you're no good for me
Confirming the clarity that the person is not good for the speaker.
