Lyrics
You say you like me
You express affection towards me
Then you don’t
Contrary to your words, you do not actually like me
You say you want me
You claim a desire for a relationship with me
Then you don’t
Your actions contradict your expressed want for a relationship
With all your habits and your manners
Describing characteristics and behavior
You think you figured out what life is about
Belief that you understand the essence of life
You are selfish and absorbent
Characterized as self-centered and absorptive
And the way you talk without any doubt
Confident speech without hesitation
So you think you just can get me outta your life
Belief that you can remove me from your life
So you think you just decide for us what’s right
Belief that you can make decisions for both of us
So you think you just ignore me and you’re done
Belief that ignoring me will conclude our interaction
So let me tell you one thing - you are wrong!
Assertion that you are mistaken
You say you feel me
You claim to understand my feelings
Then you don’t
Your actions do not align with claiming to understand my feelings
You say you keep me
You express an intention to keep me in your life
Then you don’t
Your actions contradict the intention of keeping me in your life
And now I wonder if you’re even
Doubt about your ability to perceive the situation accurately
Able to see through this mess
Questioning if you can see through the complications
You’ve talked yourself out of me
Self-talk leading to distancing from me
Now tell me, do you love me less?
Questioning if your love for me has diminished
So you think you just can get me outta your life
Belief that you can remove me from your life (repeated)
So you think you just decide for us what’s right
Belief that you can make decisions for both of us (repeated)
So you think you just ignore me and you’re done
Belief that ignoring me will conclude our interaction (repeated)
So let me tell you one thing - you are wrong!
Assertion that you are mistaken (repeated)
It’s your head that’s talking, not you heart
Recognition that rational thinking, not emotions, guides your actions
There was a bond right from the start
Acknowledgment of a strong connection from the beginning
You’ve racked this bond and now you say
Recognition that you've damaged the bond
Let’s stay friends and meet anyway
Suggesting a desire to remain friends despite the damage
What’s friendship for when it’s just
Questioning the value of friendship when it's one-sided
On your terms. Sorry, you’ve lost my trust
Loss of trust due to your terms dominating the friendship
I’m done and I’ screaming loud
Expressing frustration and decisiveness
I’m out! I’m out! I am out!
Repetition and emphasis on ending the connection
So I think I just got you outta my life
Belief that you have successfully removed the person from your life
So I think I have decided you’re not right
Personal decision that the person is not right for you
So I think I just ignore and dump you, too
Belief that you can ignore and end the relationship as well
So let me tell you one thing – I am through!
Firm declaration of conclusion and moving on
So I think I just got you outta my life
Reiteration of successfully removing the person from your life
So I think I have decided you’re not right
Reaffirmation of the decision that the person is not right for you
So I think I just ignore and dump you, too
Reaffirmation of the belief that you can ignore and end the relationship
So let me tell you one thing – I am through!
Final declaration of ending the connection and moving forward
