Lyrics
I said I need you so
I express a strong need for you
But it won't break my heart if you'd go
Although I need you, your departure won't devastate me
I'm under a lot of stress
I'm experiencing a high level of stress
After my day job I gotta relax
After my day job, I need to relax
And it's written in the Bible
A reference to a belief, suggesting a predetermined outcome
That your ending up with Tyrone
An indication that you'll end up with someone named Tyrone
Even if he shaves his eyebrow, girl
Even if he alters his appearance, he's more attractive than Jude Law
He's better looking than Jude Law, girl
Continuation of the comparison between Tyrone and Jude Law
Yeah it's written in the Bible
Reiteration of the predetermined outcome belief
Our relation is a milestone
Our relationship is a significant milestone
In the future I'm solo I'll be digging water
In the future, I'll be alone, engaging in mundane activities
Digging up bones that remind me of her
Engaging in activities that remind me of our past
My god were you looking for a facelift
A metaphorical question about seeking a rejuvenation of the relationship
Baby don't play this game no more
Requesting to stop playing emotional games
When you're heart, they're incapable of fixing it
Highlighting the incapacity to fix a damaged heart
Go no don't go
An ambiguous expression suggesting both a desire for someone to stay and leave
I ask an awful, awful, awful lot from you
Acknowledging that I demand a lot from you
But baby don't play this game
Repetition of the request to avoid playing emotional games
And you get nothing, nothing, nothing back from me
Emphasizing the lack of reciprocity in the relationship
Just wanna be on TV
Expressing a desire to be on television
And it's written in the Bible (written in the Bible)
Reiteration of the predetermined outcome belief (repeated)
That your ending up with Tyrone (ending up with Tyrone)
Continuation of the idea that you'll end up with Tyrone (repeated)
In the future I'm solo I'll be digging water
Repetition of the future scenario of being alone and engaging in mundane activities
Digging up bones that remind me of her
Repetition of engaging in activities that remind me of our past
My god were you looking for a facelift
Repeating the metaphorical question about seeking a rejuvenation of the relationship
Baby don't play this game no more
Repetition of the request to stop playing emotional games
When you're heart, they're incapable of fixing it
Restating the incapacity to fix a damaged heart
Go no don't go
Reiteration of the ambiguous expression suggesting both a desire for someone to stay and leave
My god were you looking for a facelift
Repeating the metaphorical question about seeking a rejuvenation of the relationship
Baby don't play this game no more
Repetition of the request to stop playing emotional games
When you're heart, they're incapable of fixing it
Restating the incapacity to fix a damaged heart
Go no don't go
Reiteration of the ambiguous expression suggesting both a desire for someone to stay and leave
I said I need you so
I express a strong need for you (repeated)
But it won't break my heart if you'd go
Although I need you, your departure won't devastate me (repeated)
