Lyrics
You hit on my roommate
You made advances towards my roommate
What the hell
Expressing surprise or disbelief
Just to get attention
You did this just to attract attention
For yourself
For your own benefit or recognition
I-I-I
Emphasizing a realization or insight
Know why-y-y
Emphasizing understanding or insight
You do what you're doing
Explaining the motive behind actions
Yeah, it's all games
Characterizing actions as playful or deceptive
Starting to see through it
Becoming aware of the true nature of actions
Boy, it's well-played
Admiring the cleverness of the manipulative behavior
Tell me what you know
Requesting information or insights
You got a PhD in
Suggesting expertise in manipulating emotions
Loving me to let me go
Paradoxically loving in a way that leads to separation
And honestly it's genius
Acknowledging the manipulative behavior as clever
How'd you get so cold
Questioning the emotional distance achieved
Wish I could be so cruel
Expressing a desire for the ability to be emotionally distant
Make you hurt for me like I hurt for you
Expressing a desire to cause emotional pain as experienced
Honestly it's genius
Reiterating admiration for the manipulative behavior
Started to move on
Moving forward despite past emotions
Just out of spite
Acting out of resentment or defiance
Your roommate seemed
Observing the roommate's eagerness to interact
Eager to say hi
Expressing insight or understanding
I-I-I
Emphasizing a realization or insight (repeated)
Know why-y-y
Reiterating understanding or insight (repeated)
You do what you're doing
Explaining the motive behind actions (repeated)
Yeah, it's all games
Characterizing actions as playful or deceptive (repeated)
Catching on but I'm still
Becoming aware but still under the influence
Just your protégé
Being influenced or controlled by the manipulator
Tell me what you know
Requesting information or insights (repeated)
You got a PhD in
Suggesting expertise in manipulating emotions (repeated)
Loving me to let me go
Paradoxically loving in a way that leads to separation (repeated)
And honestly it's genius
Acknowledging the manipulative behavior as clever (repeated)
How'd you get so cold
Questioning the emotional distance achieved (repeated)
Wish I could be so cruel
Expressing a desire for the ability to be emotionally distant (repeated)
Make you hurt for me like I hurt for you
Expressing a desire to cause emotional pain as experienced (repeated)
Honestly it's genius
Reiterating admiration for the manipulative behavior (repeated)
Tell me what you know
Requesting information or insights (repeated)
Mmm
Interjection or sigh expressing contemplation
Loving me to let me go
Paradoxically loving in a way that leads to separation (repeated)
Tell me what you know
Requesting information or insights (repeated)
You got a PhD in
Suggesting expertise in manipulating emotions (repeated)
Loving me to let me go
Paradoxically loving in a way that leads to separation (repeated)
And honestly it's genius
Acknowledging the manipulative behavior as clever (repeated)
How'd you get so cold
Questioning the emotional distance achieved (repeated)
Wish I could be so cruel
Expressing a desire to be emotionally distant (repeated)
Make you hurt for me like I hurt for you
Expressing a desire to cause emotional pain as experienced (repeated)
Honestly it's genius
Reiterating admiration for the manipulative behavior (repeated)
