Three
Unraveling Emotions: Navigating Love, Hate, and Jealousy in Ruby Leigh's 'Three'
Lyrics
I guess I, could say
I have a complication in expressing my feelings.
I have a complication, with one I love, and one I hate
Conflicted emotions between someone loved and someone disliked.
I try to cause distraction
Attempting to divert attention or create a distraction.
Hope it doesn't show, that every time I hear your voice it makes my skin crawl
Fearing that my discomfort is evident when hearing your voice.
Hope it doesn't show, on my face that I don't like you
Hoping my dislike for you doesn't show on my face.
I don't like you
Explicitly stating my dislike for you.
Trust my word, I have tried
Despite efforts, I've tried to ignore your irritating behavior.
To ignore your irritation
Struggling to overlook the irritation caused by you.
But you've just got, such a negative vibe
You emanate a negative vibe that is hard to ignore.
I don't know how she likes ya
Expressing confusion about why someone else likes you.
There you go again, judging us, what's the fuss
Objecting to judgmental behavior and questioning its necessity.
Stop being toxic
Advising to stop being toxic in interactions.
There you go again, thinking life evolves around you
Accusing you of self-centered thinking and a lack of awareness.
Oh baby if you knew
Expressing a wish that you could understand my perspective.
I am, sick of this
Feeling fed up and frustrated with the current situation.
Old ways, won't open new doors
Believing that sticking to old habits won't lead to progress.
Remember that
A reminder that things won't work if jealousy persists.
And we won't ever work, your too jealous
Pointing out the jealousy as a hindrance to the relationship.
Of me and her
Specifically mentioning the source of jealousy - me and another person.
Its funny how you can't even see
Commenting on the irony of your inability to see the issue.
It's the unlucky number three
Referring to the superstition around the number three.
After listening to the things you did
Expressing the negative impact of learning about your actions.
It brings out my bad side
Highlighting the emergence of negative emotions in response to you.
And that's definitely something you wanna, miss
Suggesting that avoiding such negativity is in your best interest.
Try to hide what I'm feeling inside
Attempting to conceal inner emotions and feelings.
There's a warning sign painted all over you, you have no clue
Identifying warning signs of negativity surrounding you.
How much it shows
Believing that your negative impact is highly visible.
Hopefully in time, I can understand your point of view
Expressing hope for understanding your perspective in the future.
There's nothing here to loose
Stating that there is nothing to lose in trying to understand.
I am, sick of this
Reiteration of frustration and discontent.
Old ways, won't open new doors
Emphasizing the need for new approaches to overcome challenges.
Remember that
A repetition of the advice to remember the hindrance of jealousy.
And we won't ever work, your too jealous
Reiterating the impact of jealousy on the relationship.
Of me and her
Repeating the source of jealousy - me and another person.
It's funny how you can't even see
Reiterating the irony of your lack of awareness.
It's the unlucky number three
Reiteration of the superstition around the number three.
Do I feel guilty, cause I know we could work
Questioning feelings of guilt despite the potential for the relationship to work.
If we really do try
Expressing a desire for happiness for the other person despite conflicting emotions.
I wanna be happy for her
Expressing guilt but also the willingness to make the relationship work.
Do I feel guilty, yes
Acknowledging guilt for potential success in the relationship.
Cause I know we could work
Expressing a willingness to try and make the relationship work.
If we really do try
Reiteration of the desire to be happy for the other person.
I wanna be happy for her
Repetition of the desire to be happy for the other person.
I wanna be happy for her
-I wanna be happy
Repeated expression of the desire for happiness.
