Unraveling Desires: The Allure of Deadly Styles in 'Absinthe'
Lyrics
She likes to step around the boys
She enjoys being around male companions.
This is true
A confirmation that the statement in line 1 is accurate.
Said what you wanted but I know that it’s not for you
Someone expressed desires or opinions, but the singer believes those aren't genuine or suitable for the person.
I don’t run that way
The singer does not conform to societal expectations regarding relationships or behavior.
And she doesn’t like it (she doesn't like it)
She dislikes the singer's unconventional approach or behavior.
Cause I don’t run that way
Reiteration that the singer does not conform to traditional norms, and this displeases her.
And she doesn’t like it (she doesn't like it)
Reiteration of her discontent with the singer's unconventional ways.
Stay a while
An invitation to stay and spend time together.
Deadly style, superficial smile
Describing a captivating and potentially dangerous manner, coupled with a fake or insincere smile.
Stay a while
A repetition of the invitation to stay.
Deadly style, superficial smile
Reiteration of the captivating yet potentially perilous style, along with a fake or insincere smile.
She likes to step around the boys
Repetition of her preference for being around male companions.
This is true
Confirmation that the statement in line 15 is accurate.
Said what you wanted but I know that it’s not for you
Reiteration that someone expressed desires or opinions, but the singer believes those aren't genuine or suitable for the person.

Stay a while

Deadly style, superficial smile

Stay a while
Further repetition of the invitation to stay.
Deadly style, superficial smile

Continuation of the invitation to stay.
Deadly style, superficial smile
