Lyrics

You're one on a scale from one to ten

You hold a position at the lowest end of the scale from one to ten

Caught by surprise with your intent

Caught off guard by your intentions or actions

I wish I could take it but I can't

I desire to accept or handle the situation, but I am unable to do so

I wish I could break you but I can't

I wish I could overpower or defeat you, but I am unable to do so

I wish I could take from you

I wish I could retrieve from you

The time you stole from me and hurt

The time you took away from me and the pain you caused

You back

You're facing repercussions or consequences

I shaped your aim, you shot me down

I influenced your goal, yet you defeated me

Your sharpened words then hardly felt

Your hurtful words initially had little impact or were not felt strongly

As time went by the words, the hurt

As time passed, the impact of your hurtful words and actions grew, and now I am absent or departed

The burn now register, I'm gone

I've learned a lesson, and the time spent has led to an acknowledgment of pain

Lesson learned and time was spent

All the promises or meaningful words turned out to be futile or insincere

So much for the words you meant

Learning from an experience, served or completed time in a situation

Lesson learned

Lesson learned, indicating the conclusion of a learning experience

Time served

Time spent enduring consequences or facing the fallout

You're one on a scale from one to

Same as line 1, reiterating the position on the scale

Ten

Repeating being caught unexpectedly by your intentions or actions

Caught by surprise with your

Similar to line 2, being surprised by your intent

Intent

Repeated wish to handle or accept the situation, but it remains impossible

I wish I could take it but I can't

The enjoyment or pleasure is gone, and I'm moving forward from this

The fun is gone, I'm moving on

Reiterating the lesson learned and acknowledging time spent

Lesson learned and time was spent

Similar to line 12, highlighting the hollowness of words or promises

So much for the words you meant

The regret of wasting significant time

Wasted time so much regret

Had everything, but it all turned out to be pointless or in vain

Had it all but all for not

Reiterating the lesson learned from an experience

Lesson learned

Time has passed, experienced consequences, and felt the burn

Time served, time burned, in

You will face the consequences or outcomes you deserve

Turn

It's my turn now, and you'll experience the consequences or pain

You will get what you deserve

Reiteration of line 27, emphasizing the deserving outcomes

My turn, you'll burn, and you'll

Repeating the idea of facing consequences or getting what you deserve

Get what you deserve

Continuing the emphasis on facing deserved outcomes
