Lyrics

You said you can love better than anyone else can

You claim to be capable of loving better than anyone else.

Only if there's a spell played off then you would be a better man

Being a better man is conditional on a spell or some external factor.

Why couldn't you have done it when you held my heart in your hand?

Expressing disappointment that the love wasn't demonstrated when the speaker's heart was in your possession.

Back then, you were too busy making other plans

You were preoccupied with other plans at that time.

Now you're walking tellin' me things you think I wanna hear

Currently, you're trying to win the speaker back with words that may not be genuine.

But I've already turned the page, and now your senses see

The speaker has moved on and is not affected by your words anymore.


How can I believe you?

Questioning the credibility of your words.

How can I believe you?

Doubting your sincerity and truthfulness.

When everything you said has been a lie

Highlighting that everything previously said by you was a lie.

Now you say it's different

You claim that things have changed now.

Tell me why should I listen

Asking why the speaker should believe this change and listen to you.

When everything you said has been a lie

Reiterating that past statements were all lies.


Don't you remember when you wouldn't even hold my hand?

Recalling a time when you avoided physical closeness.

I guess that you never felt proud to be my man

Suspecting that you were not proud to be in the relationship.

I haven't forgotten all the times that you let me down

Remembering instances of disappointment caused by your actions.

There's nothing you can say to turn the past around

Emphasizing that words cannot change the past.


Now you're walking tellin' me things you think I wanna hear

Repeating the pattern of saying things you believe the speaker wants to hear.

But I've already turned the page and now your senses see

The speaker remains unaffected and has moved on.


How can I believe you?

Reiterating the skepticism about believing you.

How can I believe you?

Expressing doubt in the sincerity and truthfulness of your statements.

When everything you said has been a lie

Stating that everything said by you in the past was a lie.

Now you say it's different

Claiming a change, but the speaker questions its authenticity.

Tell me why should I listen

Questioning why the speaker should now listen to your words.

When everything you said has been a lie

Reiterating that previous statements were all lies.


Has been a lie!

Emphasizing the repeated theme that everything said has been a lie.
