Lyrics

Hi my friend

Initiating a conversation, addressing someone as a friend.

Shake my hand

Extending a gesture of friendship by offering a handshake.

Tell your lie

Encouraging the other person to deceive or mislead.

With your artificial smile

Highlighting insincerity through a fake or forced smile.

Don't be mad

Advising not to be upset or angry.

I just want to help you

Expressing a desire to assist despite the apparent deceit.

To say these words out loud

Encouraging the other person to articulate their dishonesty openly.


I don't like you cause they like you

Disliking the person not for personal reasons but due to public opinion.

I hate you cause they love you

Expressing hatred based on the popularity or approval of others.

I wish you ill cause they wish you well

Wishing harm because others wish the person well.

I'm so happy when they f you

Deriving satisfaction from the person facing negative consequences endorsed by others.


Strike a blow

Encouraging an action that contributes to one's downfall.

For my fall

Asking for a harmful act to worsen the situation.

Crush me down

Requesting to be figuratively crushed or defeated.

And just say these words out loud

Reiterating the call for expressing negative words openly.


I don't like you cause they like you

Repeating the dislike based on the approval of others.

I hate you cause they love you

Reiterating hatred due to external popularity.

I wish you ill cause they wish you well

Repeating the wish for harm due to external well-wishing.

I'm so happy when they f you

Reiterating satisfaction from others causing harm.


And this is what we do

Reflecting on collective actions and identity.

And this is who we are

Questioning the persistence of certain behaviors.

Why don't you want to stop

Questioning the reluctance to cease negative actions.

You always see my life up against your life

Pointing out a comparison between personal life and others' lives.


I don't like you cause they like you

Repeating the dislike based on external approval.

I hate you cause they love you

Reiterating hatred due to external love or admiration.

I wish you ill cause they wish you well

Repeating the wish for harm due to external well-wishing.

I'm so happy when they f you

Reiterating satisfaction from others causing harm.


Tell me your lie!

Directly urging the person to reveal their falsehood.
