Whipping Post
Bound by Love's Pain: A Tale of Heartache and Betrayal
Lyrics
Run down, I've been lied to
Expressing feeling run down and deceived by lies
I don't know why I let that mean woman make me a fool
Reflecting on allowing a manipulative woman to make him a fool
She took all my money, she wrecked my new car
Describing financial loss and damage to a new car caused by the woman
Now she's with one of my good time buddies
Indicating that the woman is now with a friend, causing betrayal
Drinkin' in some cross town bar
Observing the woman drinking with a friend in a different bar
Sometimes I feel, sometimes I feel
Expressing intermittent emotions of being tied to a whipping post
Like I've been tied to the whipping post
Repetition emphasizing the feeling of being tied to a whipping post
I've been tied to the whipping post
-I've been tied to the whipping post
-Good Lord I feel like I'm dyin'
Conveying intense emotional pain, feeling like dying
Yeah, my friends tell me I've been such a fool
Acknowledging friends' advice about being foolish in love
I have to stand by and take it, all for lovin' you
Accepting the hardship for the sake of love
I drown myself in sorrow when I look at what you've done
Drowning in sorrow when reflecting on the consequences of love
And nothin' seems to change, bad times stay the same and I can't run
Expressing frustration that despite efforts, bad times persist
Sometimes I feel, sometimes I feel
Reiteration of the feeling of being tied to a whipping post
Like I've been tied to the whipping post
Repetition emphasizing the ongoing struggle and emotional pain
I've been tied to the whipping post
-Been tied to the whipping post
-Good Lord I feel like I'm dyin'
Intensifying the feeling of impending emotional demise
Sometimes I feel, sometimes I feel
Recurrence of the theme of being tied to a whipping post
Like I've been tied to the whipping post
Emphasizing the persistent feeling of being tied to a whipping post
I've been tied to the whipping post
-I've been tied to the whipping post
-Good Lord I feel like I'm dyin'
Reiterating the overwhelming sensation of feeling like dying
