Lyrics
Four days ago you left me broken
Expressing the recent emotional pain caused by a breakup four days ago.
Now you're coming back for more
Noting the return of the person who caused the pain, seeking reconciliation.
Three days ago you showed no emotion
Highlighting the lack of emotional expression from the person three days ago.
Now you're saying don't close the door
Despite the previous emotional distance, the person now wants to keep the connection.
I've tried so many times with you
Expressing multiple attempts to make the relationship work.
I've tried until my heart is through
Conveying the exhaustion and emotional fatigue from trying repeatedly.
Don't say that you've changed
Skepticism about the person's claim of change, doubting any significant transformation.
When I know you've stayed the same
Affirming the belief that the person has remained unchanged despite their words.
Why wont you just do better
Repeated plea for the person to improve or change their behavior.
Why wont you just do better
-Why wont you just do better
-Why wont you just do better
-Why wont you just do better by me
Stressing the desire for the person to treat the speaker better in general.
Promised me the world when we first met
Recalling promises made during the initial stages of the relationship.
Now you don't even care
Noticing a shift in the person's care and commitment over time.
Treated me like I'm just some regret
Feeling mistreated and viewed as a regrettable part of the person's life.
The way you play just ain't fair
Commenting on the unfair or deceptive behavior of the person.
I've tried so many times with you
Reiterating the numerous attempts to salvage the relationship.
I've tried until my heart is through
Expressing emotional exhaustion due to persistent efforts.
Don't say that you've changed
Distrusting the claim of change, emphasizing the perceived lack of transformation.
When I know you've stayed the same
Reaffirming the belief that the person hasn't evolved despite their assurances.
Why wont you just do better
Repeatedly questioning why the person doesn't strive for improvement.
Why wont you just do better
-Why wont you just do better
-Why wont you just do better
-Why wont you just do better by me
Insisting on a better treatment from the person in general.
Better by me
Repetition for emphasis on the desire for improvement.
Better by me
-Why wont you just do better
Continued plea for the person to do better by the speaker.
Why wont you just do better
-Why wont you just do better
-Why wont you just do better by me
