Tired of You
Breaking Free from Toxic Bonds: Tired of You by Slick Shoes
Lyrics
There's no better way to tell you how I feel than this.
Expressing difficulty in conveying emotions in a better way.
Don't act so surprised,
Advising against feigning surprise, indicating a long-standing issue.
It's been like this a long time.
Highlighting the prolonged existence of the problematic situation.
Every time you turn your back on me,
Expressing the emotional impact when being ignored or rejected.
It breaks my heart to think of all those times that I was there for you.
Reflecting on past instances of support and feeling let down.
If there ever comes a time when I won't be there I hope you have some time and find someone else to abuse.
Expressing a desire for independence and discouraging mistreatment.
I won't be there, I'm not a fool.
Asserting independence and refusal to be taken for granted.
I am getting tired of you.
Conveying growing weariness and dissatisfaction with the relationship.
I remember those rainy days when I stayed in.
Recalling past moments spent indoors during rain, possibly nostalgic.
I'd call you on the phone and try to be your friend.
Describing attempts to maintain a connection by reaching out.
But to no avail, I swore it would never happen again.
Expressing disappointment and a determination to avoid repetition.
Two phone calls later and I gave it.
Acknowledging vulnerability and relenting after initial resistance.
I'm such a sucker, why do I try so hard?
Self-criticism for persistent effort despite repeated disappointments.
The simple things I do to prove I care for you.
Emphasizing simple gestures as demonstrations of care and affection.
I won't be there, I'm not a fool.
Reiterating independence and refusal to endure mistreatment.
I am getting tired of you.
Reinforcing growing fatigue and dissatisfaction in the relationship.
I won't let this world get me down.
Declaring resilience against external negativity.
And your silly games won't get me down.
Rejecting engagement in trivial or manipulative behaviors.
I pray to god that you won't get me down.
Expressing hope for protection from emotional distress.
