Lyrics
Wishing that on me
Expressing a desire for something to happen to the speaker
Be careful what you say
Cautioning about the consequences of words spoken
You're lucky that I'm numb
Thankful for feeling emotionally detached or desensitized
It's easier this way
Choosing the path of least resistance for emotional ease
I've been up all night
Being awake throughout the night
And still you haven't called
Expressing disappointment at someone's failure to communicate despite staying awake
The air is very light
Feeling a sense of lightness in the atmosphere
The calm before the storm
Anticipating a troubling event after a period of calmness
You raised me up
Acknowledging someone's influence in uplifting the speaker
You raised me from below
Being lifted or improved from a lower state or position
I thought you would
Belief that someone would always hold onto the speaker
Would never let me go
Realization that the belief of eternal support was mistaken
You raised me up
Reiteration of being raised or uplifted
And threw me back so ruthlessly
Feeling discarded or cast aside in a harsh manner after being uplifted
Now I've had enough
Reaching a limit of tolerance or endurance
You can't play with my love
Asserting that one's emotions cannot be played with or manipulated
Look what you've become
Commentary on the negative transformation of someone's character or behavior
Tryna leave me undone
Attempting to leave the speaker in a vulnerable or incomplete state
Time to give you up
Deciding to let go of someone or something
Looking down from above, above, above, above
Viewing a situation or person from a superior or detached position
Now I've had enough
Reaching the limit of endurance or tolerance again
You can't play with my love
Asserting that emotions should not be toyed with
Look what you've become
Observing negative changes in someone's character or behavior
Tryna leave me undone
Trying to leave the speaker in a vulnerable or incomplete state again
Time to give you up
Deciding to let go of someone or something once more
Looking down from above, above, above, above (above)
Continuing to view a situation or person from a superior or detached position
