Full Analysis

The overall theme focuses on the struggle of moving on from someone who’s caused a lot of hurt. It captures that feeling of being trapped in a cycle of love and pain. The singer wants to break free but finds it hard to let go. There’s anger, sadness, and a hint of self-reflection throughout the song.

Verse 1

Things are better off this way
Wish you never ever knew my name
Wish I never said "Hi" 'cause you got really cute eyes
I don't wanna cut ties just to kiss your face

Here, the singer starts off with a strong sense of regret. They wish they never got close to this person, showing how initial attraction turned into a painful situation. The mention of "cute eyes" suggests that despite the hurt, there was something appealing that drew them in, making it all the more complicated.

Chorus

'Cause you'll just do it again
And you'll fuck all my friends, and you'll just fuck with my head
And I'm so done with the mess you left embedded in lead
I want you out of my life, I'm sick of all of your lies

In the chorus, the frustration really comes through. The singer is tired of the manipulative games and the chaos this person brings into their life. The use of "embedded in lead" paints a vivid picture of how heavy and burdensome the emotional weight feels. It’s a declaration of wanting to be done with the lies and the toxicity.

Verse 2

'Cause you'll just do it again
You just love to pretend to be innocent
Fuck you, I think you're insignificant
Don't you look at my eyes, go and say your goodbyes

This verse continues the theme of frustration and anger. The singer calls out the other person's behavior, accusing them of feigning innocence. It’s a powerful moment of standing up for oneself and demanding closure. The line "go and say your goodbyes" highlights the desire for distance and the end of this unhealthy connection.

Chorus

'Cause you'll just do it again
And you'll fuck all my friends, and you'll just fuck with my head
And I'm so done with the mess you left embedded in lead
I want you out of my life, I'm sick of all of your lies

Repeating the chorus reinforces the emotional turmoil and the need for escape. The repetition emphasizes how trapped the singer feels, almost like they’re caught in a loop of hurt. The urgency is palpable, showing just how desperate they are to break free from this toxic relationship.

Bridge

You treated me wrong, I'm so glad you're gone
Why can't I move on?
You filled me with hate, you made my heart break
Still, I can't escape

The bridge dives deeper into the emotional pain. The singer acknowledges the hurt but also the conflicting feelings of still being attached. It's a moment of vulnerability, revealing the struggle to move on even when they know it’s for the best. The contrast of being glad the person is gone but still feeling trapped adds complexity to their feelings.

Outro

Well, love has a cost and both of us lost
It went on way too long
Like, it never would end 'til the day that we're dead
And both of us are gone

In the outro, there's a sense of resignation. The singer reflects on the relationship's toll, realizing that both sides suffered. It’s a bittersweet acknowledgment that sometimes love can lead to mutual destruction. The finality of the lines suggests a hard-earned lesson that might help them move forward.

Full Lyrics

Things are better off this way
Wish you never ever knew my name
Wish I never said "Hi" 'cause you got really cute eyes
I don't wanna cut ties just to kiss your face
So things are better this way
Get out of my brain, I'm out of my lane
I'm not playing this game
I know I'll be fine, I can tell you tell lies
And I hope you don't mind that I turn away

'Cause you'll just do it again
And you'll fuck all my friends, and you'll just fuck with my head
And I'm so done with the mess you left embedded in lead
I want you out of my life, I'm sick of all of your lies
I'm sick of all the little things you used to do with my mind

'Cause you'll just do it again
You just love to pretend to be innocent
Fuck you, I think you're insignificant
Don't you look at my eyes, go and say your goodbyes
You fucked up bad now you're wasting my time

You treated me wrong, I'm so glad you're gone
Why can't I move on?
You filled me with hate, you made my heart break
Still, I can't escape
I tried and I tried but I'm left dead inside
And you're killing me slowly without even knowing

Well, love has a cost and both of us lost
It went on way too long
Like, it never would end 'til the day that we're dead
And both of us are gone
I tried and I tried, we both had lost our minds
I felt so sick to my stomach but I know that you love it

'Cause you'll just do it again
And you'll fuck all my friends, and you'll just fuck with my head
And I'm so done with the mess you left embedded in lead
I want you out of my life, I'm sick of all of your lies
I'm sick of all the little things you used to do with my mind

'Cause you'll just do it again
You just love to pretend to be innocent
Fuck you, I think you're insignificant
Don't you look at my eyes, go and say your goodbyes
You fucked up bad now you're wasting my time

You made my heart break and my stomach ache
And in my mouth you left a terrible taste
Why do I love you still?
I got physically ill from every shitty thing you made me feel

(Ahem)
Yup, and it's so cold, but what do I know?
I got somebody in my psyche hitting high notes
I got nobody on my side, I'm a psycho
Might go at night, I'm a boy with a knife, woah
Thank God every night for my nice home
Even if I wish I'd die, I'm alright bro
Thoughts stay inside my mind with a light code
Life goes on and on

'Cause you'll just do it again
And you'll fuck all my friends, and you'll just fuck with my head
And I'm so done with the mess you left embedded in lead
I want you out of my life, I'm sick of all of your lies
I'm sick of all the little things you used to do with my mind

'Cause you'll just do it again
You just love to pretend to be innocent
Fuck you, I think you're insignificant
Don't you look at my eyes, go and say your goodbyes
You fucked up bad now you're wasting my time
