Leaving Looks Good On You
Love's Currency: Unraveling the Meaning Behind Zander Rodriguez's 'Leaving Looks Good On You'
Lyrics
I gave you love as currency
I offered my love as a form of exchange or value.
Cause your love didn't come for free
Your love wasn't freely given; there were conditions or costs involved.
I thought your looks really mattered to me
I believed your physical appearance was important to me.
But you got a two star personality
Your personality is only rated two stars, implying it's not impressive.
I tried to ride with you for a while
I attempted to be with you for a while.
But I was just driving denial
I was in a state of self-deception while being with you.
Down a one lane interstate
Travelling down a narrow path with no room for growth.
It was my mistake to make
It was my own error to choose this path.
After all that we've been though
Reflecting on our shared experiences.
Leaving looks good on you
Leaving suits you well.
After all that we've been through
Reiteration that leaving is a good choice for you.
Leaving looks good on you
Emphasizing the positive aspect of departing.
How many months, how many years
Questioning the duration of our relationship.
How many shots, how many beers
Quantifying shared experiences and indulgences.
Too many tears, wasted on you
Expressing emotional investment and disappointment.
I will say your taste in fashion
Complimenting your sense of style compensating for lack of enthusiasm.
Made up for your lack of passion
Anticipating a negative outcome due to a lack of emotional involvement.
We were bound for a chain reaction
Expecting a series of events triggered by our relationship.
And girl, here's the truth
Asserting honesty about the situation.
After all that we've been though
Leaving continues to be a favorable option.
Leaving looks good on you
Reaffirming that departing looks good on you.
After all that we've been through
Stressing the positive impact of leaving.
Leaving looks good on you
Continued emphasis on the attractiveness of departure.
So don't trip out the door
Don't hesitate to leave.
As you go looking for more
Encouraging you to seek something better.
I hope you find what you're looking for
Wishing you success in finding what you desire.
In a heart that bleeds green
Describing a heart that is hurt or wounded.
After all that we've been though
Reflecting on our shared experiences once again.
Leaving looks good on you
Leaving remains a positive choice for you.
After all that we've been through
Reiterating the positive aspect of departure.
Leaving looks good on you
Underscoring that leaving is beneficial for you.
So don't trip out the door
Don't hesitate to leave.
As you go looking for more
Encouraging you to seek something better.
I hope you find what you're looking for
Wishing you success in finding what you desire.
In a heart that bleeds green
Describing a heart that is hurt or wounded (repeated).
After all that we've been though
Once again reflecting on our shared experiences.
Leaving looks good on you
Leaving continues to be a positive choice for you.
After all that we've been through
Emphasizing the positive impact of departure once more.
Leaving looks good on you
Reiterating that leaving looks good on you.
