Lyrics
2. STAY AWAY
STAY AWAY
You got a shake in your step
You have a confident, purposeful walk
I'm standing here like a rock
I am steadfast, unmoving
Made out of muscle so big
Strong and muscular
Make the world shout out
Impressive, making an impact
I draw the line in the sand
I establish clear boundaries
I'm not bitch that you hoped
I am not a submissive person
Like any film where the girl and monster play
Reference to a film where a girl and a monster interact
Set in LA
The setting is Los Angeles
Getting tired of dragging down this crumbling road You're the kind that never learns
Expressing frustration with the difficulties of a challenging path; addressing someone who doesn't learn from mistakes
Maybe now you'll finally stay away
Hope that the person causing problems will finally stay away
Stay away
Reiteration of the desire for the person to stay away
Just stay
Emphasizing the plea to stay away
Away
Repetition for emphasis: Stay away
Stay away
Reiteration of the plea to stay away
Just stay
Emphasizing once again: Just stay
Away
Repetition for emphasis: Away
I got a taste of success
Experiencing a taste of success
You taste the blood in your mouth
Feeling the consequences, possibly of a fight, symbolized by tasting blood
Like getting punched in the face
Describing a physical altercation, a punch to the face
And your teeth knocked out
Experiencing consequences, losing something important
You draw the rope to a noose
Creating a metaphorical noose, possibly a self-destructive situation
It's not as tight as you hoped
Not as constricting as expected, perhaps not as dire as perceived
Like any film where the girl and monster play
Reference again to a film scenario with a girl and a monster
Except it's today
Emphasizing that this scenario is happening in the present
Just stay away
Reiterating the plea for the person to stay away
