Whiplash
Whiplash of Emotions: Love's Rollercoaster by Izzy Amendola
Lyrics
You told me that you needed space
You communicated a need for personal space
But you keep coming over
Despite your request, you continue to come over
Why do you always say one thing
Expressing confusion about inconsistent communication
Then go and do the other
Noticing a discrepancy between words and actions
Pull me close, pull me close
Emphasizing intimacy by being pulled close
Then push me away
Followed by being pushed away, creating emotional distance
Never know, never know
Highlighting uncertainty about the relationship
When your mind will change
Unpredictability in your thoughts and feelings
One day we're fine
Days of harmony followed by sudden animosity
Then the next one, you're hating me
Expressing the unpredictability of your feelings
You always change
Noticing a pattern of constant change
Oh it's too much to take
Feeling overwhelmed by the emotional rollercoaster
Yes or no, do you really want this
Seeking clarity on whether you truly desire the relationship
Tell me so, I'm tired of guessing
Frustration with the guessing game, asking for honesty
Yes or no, if not we can end this
Offering an option to end the relationship if necessary
End this
Expressing a desire to conclude the uncertainty
Giving me a Whiplash
Feeling the emotional impact of the relationship's instability
Giving me a Whiplash
-Giving me a Whiplash
-Giving me a Whiplash
-Giving me a Whiplash
-Tired of your Whiplash
-I don't need your excuses
Rejecting excuses and acknowledging difficulty in listening
I'm bad at listening
Admitting a weakness in paying attention to irrelevant matters
To the things that are useless
Recognizing the futility of useless conversations
They never change a thing
Believing that such talks never lead to positive change
I still got all the wounds
Still bearing emotional wounds from the past
You so kindly gave to me
Acknowledging wounds inflicted by the other person
Now I'm done being foolish
Deciding to stop being naive and foolish
Won't waste my energy
Committing to not waste energy on futile endeavors
Pull me close, pull me close
Reiteration of the emotional back-and-forth in the relationship
Then push me away
-Never know, never know
-When your mind will change
-One day we're fine
-When the next one, you're hating me
-You always change
Highlighting the difficulty of constant change
Oh it's too much to take
Expressing the overwhelming nature of the situation
Yes or no, do you really want this
Seeking a definitive answer to the relationship's future
Tell me so, I'm tired of guessing
Expressing frustration with the lack of clarity
Yes or no, if not we can end this
Offering the possibility of ending the uncertainty
End this
Reiterating a desire to conclude the emotional turmoil
Giving me a Whiplash
Continued impact of the relationship's instability
Giving me a Whiplash
-Giving me a Whiplash
-Giving me a Whiplash
-Giving me a Whiplash
-Tired of your Whiplash
-Ooh you really had me going there
Feeling deceived and hurt by the other person's actions
Ooh it almost felt like you could care
-Ooh you really had me going there
-Had me going there, you really had me going there
-Yeah you sent a fire burning through my veins
-Then you turned around oh just to make it rain
-Didn't have to lie but you did anyway
-Now I'm the one who's gonna walk away
-Look how it's changed
Recognizing a shift in the dynamic of the relationship
I'm the one who just doesn't want this
Expressing a personal decision to end the guessing game
I'm so done, I'm tired of guessing
Feeling tired and done with the uncertainty
I'm the one who's about to end this
Deciding to take control and end the relationship
End this
Turning the tables and causing emotional turmoil for the other person
Giving you a Whiplash
-Giving you a Whiplash
-Giving you a Whiplash
-Giving you a Whiplash
-Giving you a Whiplash
-Now who's got the Whiplash
Reflecting on the reversal of emotional impact
