Gaslight
Gaslight: Unraveling the Shadows of Betrayal
Lyrics
Sickened words, you left me wondering
Sickened words, expressing feelings of discomfort or disgust from spoken words, leaving the speaker in confusion.
Jaked on these beers, you're pondering now
Under the influence of alcohol ("Jaked on these beers"), contemplating or reflecting on the situation.
I won't take this bullshit over you
Rejecting and refusing to accept any deceptive or insincere behavior from the other person.
If you dare come near, I'll rot and disappear
A warning that if the other person approaches, the speaker's well-being will deteriorate, possibly metaphorically "rot and disappear."
You said "I could never leave you"
Recalling a previous assurance from the other person about not leaving.
I said "I can never see you again"
The speaker asserting their decision to sever ties, emphasizing a strong emotional distance.
But you don't understand at all
Expressing frustration that the other person fails to comprehend the situation.
If you dare come near, I'll rot and disappear
Reiteration of the warning that approaching the speaker will have negative consequences.
Lying down passed out on the floor
Describing a scene where the speaker is physically incapacitated, possibly due to the emotional toll.
Nothing makes sense anymore
Feeling a sense of confusion and chaos, with life appearing devoid of meaning.
Hanging on the words you said before
Clutching onto the words previously spoken by the other person, seeking clarity or resolution.
Nothing makes sense anymore
Reiterating the sense of confusion and meaninglessness.
Loving you for months on end now
Reflecting on a prolonged period of love, possibly questioning its validity or impact.
Said I'd be with you forever now
Recalling a commitment to everlasting love, which now seems to have changed.
I'm not wasting time with you no more
Declaring an end to investing time in the relationship, signaling a desire to move on.
Now I've caught your ear, so go rot and disappear
Reinforcing the consequence of approaching the speaker—capturing attention to the impending negative outcome.
So dazed over all of this, wondering
Feeling disoriented and confused about the circumstances, contemplating the reasons for a difficult year.
how did I end up here making my year so poor?
Expressing a sense of impoverishment or emotional distress caused by the unfolding events.
But you're the whore, and I
Labeling the other person negatively, possibly expressing frustration or resentment.
Might be better for a year, so go rot and disappear
Suggesting that a period of separation might lead to improvement or clarity.
Lying down passed out on the floor
Revisiting the scene of physical incapacity, indicating a persistent struggle or emotional turmoil.
Nothing makes sense anymore
Reiterating the sense of confusion and meaninglessness.
Hanging on the words you said before
Continuing to dwell on the words previously spoken, seeking understanding or closure.
Nothing makes sense anymore
Reiterating the sense of confusion and meaninglessness.
Won't you say it once more?
Requesting a repetition of a statement, perhaps seeking clarity or confirmation.
Nothing makes sense anymore
Emphasizing the ongoing confusion and lack of coherence in the speaker's life.
Won't you say it once more?
Repeating the desire for the other person to speak again, highlighting the need for resolution.
Nothing makes sense anymore
Affirming the continued sense of confusion and meaninglessness in the speaker's life.
