Subtract Me, Delete Us
Love's Dangerous Equation: Subtract Me, Delete Us
Lyrics
Subtract me, delete me
Expressing a desire to be removed or forgotten
Just walk by when you see me
Asking to be ignored when encountered
Cuz everything you do so dangerous
Highlighting the dangerous nature of the other person's actions
Cuz everything you've done endangered us
Stressing that the actions of the other person put the relationship at risk
Subtract me, delete me
Reiteration of the desire to be subtracted or deleted
Just walk by when you see me
Reiterating the request to be ignored
Cuz everything you do so dangerous
Re-emphasizing the hazardous nature of the other person's behavior
Cuz everything you've done endangered us
Reiterating the impact of the other person's actions on the relationship
Hope you know you lost a man with a good heart
Communicating that the person has lost a man with a good heart
Should've known cuz this was toxic from the start
Reflecting on the toxicity of the relationship from the beginning
It's my fault
Acknowledging personal responsibility
Fuck a sorry can't put the blame on me
Rejecting apologies and refusing to shoulder all the blame
Had me living a false reality
Describing a period of living in a false reality
Like when you said you loved me I'm the one and only
Recalling a past declaration of love and exclusivity
So why'd you leave me on the wayside feeling lonely
Expressing feelings of abandonment and loneliness
Subtract me, delete me
Repetition of the desire to be subtracted or deleted
Just walk by when you see me
Reiterating the request to be ignored
Cuz everything you do so dangerous
Re-emphasizing the dangerous nature of the other person's actions
Cuz everything you've done endangered us
Reiterating the impact of the other person's actions on the relationship
Subtract me, delete me
Reiteration of the desire to be subtracted or deleted
Just walk by when you see me
Reiterating the request to be ignored
Cuz everything you do so dangerous
Re-emphasizing the hazardous nature of the other person's behavior
Cuz everything you've done endangered us
Reiterating the impact of the other person's actions on the relationship
Replay so much DUMB shit in my mind
Reflecting on repetitive negative thoughts
Back and forth back and forth suicides
Describing a cycle of emotional turmoil and self-destructive thoughts
Pack my heart, exit left, then you cry
Metaphorical description of leaving a relationship, causing emotional distress
Pulls me in like a moon do the tides
Comparing the attraction to the person to the gravitational pull of the moon
Wash the stains of our love I've done tried
Expressing unsuccessful attempts to remove the emotional stains of the relationship
Hope you feel all my pains through these rhymes
Wishing for the other person to understand the emotional pain through the lyrics
Hope you feel all my pains through these rhymes
Reiteration of the hope for understanding through the song
Subtract me, delete me
Repetition of the desire to be subtracted or deleted
Just walk by when you see me
Reiterating the request to be ignored
Cuz everything you do so dangerous
Re-emphasizing the dangerous nature of the other person's actions
Cuz everything you've done endangered us
Reiterating the impact of the other person's actions on the relationship
Subtract me, delete me
Reiteration of the desire to be subtracted or deleted
Just walk by when you see me
Reiterating the request to be ignored
Cuz everything you do so dangerous
Re-emphasizing the hazardous nature of the other person's behavior
Cuz everything you've done endangered us
Reiterating the impact of the other person's actions on the relationship
