Stop Stop
Unraveling Forbidden Desires in The Black Keys' 'Stop Stop'
Lyrics
You're wound up like a weapon
You are tense and ready for conflict, comparable to a weapon.
You've got an evil streak
You possess a malicious or malevolent disposition.
They told me to stay away
Others advised me to stay away from you.
But I was much too weak
I lacked the strength to heed the advice and resist your allure.
You gotta stop, stop can't you hear me call
There is a plea for you to cease your actions, emphasizing the urgency.
And singing gotta stop, stop it girl
Expressing the need for you to stop through singing and vocalization.
Yeah you gotta stop, stop can't you see me fall
An appeal for you to recognize the impact of your actions as I experience a downfall.
And singing stop, stop it girl
Reiterating the call for you to stop through vocal expression.
I hunted you forever
I pursued you relentlessly, but you remained oblivious to my efforts.
But you never saw
Despite the persistent pursuit, you never acknowledged the depth of my affection.
This love was so strong it should'a
The intensity of this love was so powerful that it could be deemed unlawful.
Been against the law
Suggesting that the strength of the love should have been prohibited.
Yeah you gotta stop, stop can't you hear me call
Reiteration of the plea for you to stop, highlighting the urgency.
And singing stop, stop it girl
Continued emphasis on the need for you to cease your actions through singing.
Yeah you gotta stop, stop can't you see me fall
Expressing the consequences of not stopping, as I experience a fall or decline.
And singing stop, stop it girl
Reiterating the call for you to stop through vocal expression.
You tear me all apart
Your actions are causing emotional distress and breaking me apart.
Then act so warm
You then display warmth, creating a confusing and contradictory emotional experience.
Like being cooled by the rain
Comparing the emotional turmoil caused by you to being cooled by the rain in the midst of a storm.
In the eye of the storm
Highlighting the conflicting and turbulent nature of the emotional situation.
Yeah you gotta stop, stop can't you hear me call
Reiteration of the plea for you to stop, underscoring the urgency.
And singing gotta stop, stop it girl
Continued emphasis on the need for you to cease your actions through singing.
Yeah you gotta stop, stop can't you see me fall
Expressing the consequences of not stopping, as I experience a fall or decline.
And singing stop, stop it girl
Reiterating the call for you to stop through vocal expression.
Yeah you gotta stop, stop can't you hear me call
Further emphasizing the urgent need for you to cease your actions through vocalization.
And singing gotta stop, stop it girl
Continued emphasis on the need for you to cease your actions through singing.
Yeah you gotta stop, stop can't you see me fall
Expressing the consequences of not stopping, as I experience a fall or decline.
And singing stop, stop it girl
Reiterating the call for you to stop through vocal expression.
