You're So Mean
Love's Battle: Confronting Temptation and Heartbreak
Lyrics
I want you so bad, I start to hate you
I desire you intensely, but this desire is causing resentment.
Stealing my love again, uninvited
You are taking my love without permission or invitation.
I hate you
An expression of strong dislike or disdain towards the person.
Am I too easy to be won over that fast
Questioning if the speaker is easily won over and questioning the speed of this conquest.
You say a sentence and I'm falling on my ass
Your words have a powerful effect on me, causing me to fall quickly.
You've gotta go because I've gotta get my head on straight
Asking the person to leave to allow the speaker to think clearly.
For the love of god, stay away from me
An urgent plea for the person to stay away for the speaker's well-being.
You're so mean
An assertion that the person is unkind or unpleasant.
Can't you see that I'm taken
Noticing that the speaker is already committed to someone else.
You're so mean
Reiterating that the person is unkind, especially in matters of the heart.
To the hearts you'll be breaking
Anticipating that the person will cause emotional pain to others.
For the life of me I can't
Expressing confusion or inability to understand the person's motives.
Figure out what you're doing here
A statement of bewilderment regarding the person's presence.
If you're here for me, tell me why did you wait so long
Questioning the reason for the person's delayed appearance if they are indeed here for the speaker.
For the life of me I can't
Reiterating the speaker's inability to resist the person.
I can't say no to you
Expressing difficulty in refusing the person's advances.
If you're here for me, tell me why did you wait so long
Repeating the question about the delayed arrival of the person.
I want you so bad, and I'm so confused
Re-emphasizing the intense desire for the person despite confusion.
You make no sense to me
Stating that the person's actions are illogical or unclear.
You seem so amused
Observing that the person appears entertained or pleased without clear reason.
I've got a question that I know I shouldn't ask
Possessing a question that the speaker acknowledges may be unwise to ask.
Are you for real
Questioning the authenticity or sincerity of the person.
Is this a bit you're in for cash
Suspecting that the person might be involved in a deceptive situation for financial gain.
You've gotta tell me cause your offer seems so tempting, yeah
Requesting clarification on the person's intentions because they seem tempting.
You've gotta tell me or my heart will be a mess
Expressing the emotional turmoil the speaker will face without clarification.
You're so mean
Reiterating the unkind nature of the person.
Can't you see that I'm taken
Reiterating the speaker's committed relationship status.
You're so mean
Re-emphasizing the unkind behavior, particularly in breaking hearts.
To the hearts you'll be breaking
Anticipating that the person will cause emotional pain to others.
And you're so hot you could melt my face off
Describing the person's attractiveness to an extreme degree.
You're dangerous, you know that
Labeling the person as dangerous due to their allure.
And you're so hot you could melt my face off
Repeating the extreme attractiveness and danger of the person.
You're dangerous and so hot
Reiterating the person's dangerous and attractive qualities.
You're so mean
Asserting again that the person is unkind or unpleasant.
Can't you see that I'm taken
Reiterating the speaker's committed relationship status.
You're so mean
Re-emphasizing the unkind behavior, particularly in breaking hearts.
To the hearts you'll be breaking
Anticipating that the person will cause emotional pain to others.
