Lyrics
And all those things you said to me
Reflecting on past words spoken to the speaker
Made me fall straight down to my knees
Expressing emotional impact, feeling brought to knees
You said it all you said it often
Acknowledging frequent repetition of hurtful words
About how I wasn't anything
Being told that the speaker was insignificant
Now I'm feeling better without you
Claiming improved well-being after separation
My mind could fill up the whole room
Feeling mentally liberated and expansive
Cause all the doubts you put in my head
Referencing doubts instilled by the other person
My head
Emphasizing the impact on the speaker's mind
And I know that I'm better without you
Affirming personal growth and strength without the person
Gets hard when I'm overwhelmed and
Admitting challenges in coping with overwhelming feelings
Can't get over the way that you chose him
Struggling to accept the choice of a new romantic partner
And I know that I'm better without you
Reiterating the positive change without the person
Gets hard when I'm overwhelmed and
Repeating the difficulty in overcoming emotions
Can't get over the way that you chose him
Reiterating the challenge of accepting the new partner
Darkness over light
Contrasting darkness with light, indicating emotional turmoil
You broke it for the thousandth time
Highlighting repeated emotional breaking points
But I could never warn you
Expressing an inability to warn the other person
For what was coming toward you
Referring to an impending negative situation
I could never afford to
Stating financial inability to prevent the situation
That's why I never told you but you ran away
Explaining why the speaker didn't disclose the information
You ran away
Repeating the act of running away
These problems they haunt us
Labeling persistent issues as haunting
It's often cuz I'm not the running type
Linking problems to the speaker's non-confrontational nature
And I'm toxic
Acknowledging own toxic traits as a possible cause
That's probably why you went and left my life
Connecting toxicity to the other person leaving
And I know that I'm better without you
Reaffirming personal growth and well-being
Gets hard when I'm overwhelmed and
Restating the difficulty in managing overwhelming emotions
Can't get over the way that you chose him
Reiterating the struggle with the choice of a new partner
Darkness over light
Repeating the contrast between darkness and light
You broke it for the thousandth time
Reiterating emotional breaking points
But I could never warn you
Expressing an inability to warn the other person
Now I know that I'm better without you
Confidently asserting improved well-being without the person
Gets hard when I'm overwhelmed and
Reiterating the ongoing struggle with overwhelming feelings
Can't get over the way that you chose him
Repeating the challenge of accepting the new partner
And I know that I'm better without you
Reaffirming personal growth and strength without the person
Gets hard when I'm overwhelmed and
Reiterating the ongoing difficulty in managing overwhelming emotions
Can't get over the way that you chose him
Repeating the struggle with the choice of a new partner
