Don't try to cover up your
Your new flame
That's seething through your eyes
I can see it from ten feet away
And I know just who is burning
With every kiss you deny
So what makes you think
That I still care or still want you anymore?

So how long has this been going on?
And one more thing
Tell me, was she the reason
You stomped on my heart
And moved on so quickly?

You can call it pure torture
Watching your every move with her
Oh, just the thought of it
Knowing what goes on between you
Makes me sick
I should have noticed
I should have noticed
When she came into the picture
You were always with her
And she's not leaving

So how long has this been going on?
And one more thing
Tell me, was she the reason
You stomped on my heart
And moved on so quickly?

You called me shady
And now she's your babydoll
She drove you over
Over to break it off
And this time, just maybe
Maybe you went a little far
I'm sick of crying about
About your new flame
That's soon to burn out

So how long has this been going on?
And one more thing
Tell me, was she the reason
You stomped on my heart
And moved on so quickly?
I'm done

    I LOVE THIS SONG!!! This is just another song of her I can relate to every line.

    To me it sounds like a guy was with her or not with her and picked another girl instead of her.

    Honestly , this is the track that made me fall in love with demi . This is so raw , the words and the way she sings it . I hope it somehow gets played , I would love if she'd play this live .

    Apart The Middle, this is by far my favourite song of Demi's. I totally agree that it's raw; it's in the lyrics and the way she sings it. On the one side, it's full of teenage angst but on the other side she sings it with such hurt in her voice that young or old can feel what she feels.

    I cannot believe this song didn't make it onto the album. It is probably the only song I've heard of hers that would make even the Disney haters like her.

    Give this girl a few years, she'll break away from Disney and she will be recording songs that are completely and utterly genius!

    "Don't try to cover up your, Your new flame That's seething through your eyes I can see it from ten feet away And I know just who is burning"

    It's just so tragically beautiful!

    Song Meaning

    the song means that her boyfriend just broke up with her and already has a new gf, so she knows that he must have been cheating on her. i gotta say, this is one of my favorite demi songs.

    This song is amazing . It's basically how a guy dumped her for another girl who she should have seen a along and it hurts her and she's angry and she sees them as low scums of the earth :p in basically calling them trash.

    This song is STORY. OF. MY. F?!@#$%^&*. LIFE. srsly, she just basically explained my lifeeee. <\\3 this song pretty much explains itself. this guy she dated just broke up with her. she sees in his eyes that he already has a new girl. she wants to know how long he's been dating this girl, and if she was the reason he broke her heart. &moved on just so quickly. she doesn't even like to think about what goes on between him & her. he thought she was bad, but his new gf is his baby. basically... my life. again. haha. ;P

Holiday
Bee Gees
@[Diderik:33655] "Your a holiday!" Was a popular term used in the 50s/60s to compliment someone on their all around. For example, not only are they beautiful, but they are fun and kind too ... just an all around "holiday". I think your first comment is closer to being accurate. The singer/song writers state "Millions of eyes can see, yet why am i so blind!? When the someone else is me, its unkind its unkind". I believe hes referring to the girl toying with him and using him. He wants something deeper with her, thats why he allows himself to be as a puppet (even though for her fun and games) as long as it makes her happy. But he knows deep down that she doesnt really want to be serious with him and thats what makes him.

Magical

Blue
Ed Sheeran
“Blue” is a song about a love that is persisting in the discomfort of the person experiencing the emotion. Ed Sheeran reflects on love lost, and although he wishes his former partner find happiness, he cannot but admit his feelings are still very much there. He expresses the realization that he might never find another on this stringed instrumental by Aaron Dessner.
Album art
Punchline
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran sings about missing his former partner and learning important life lessons in the process on “Punchline.” This track tells a story of battling to get rid of emotions for a former lover, whom he now realized might not have loved him the same way. He’s now caught between accepting that fact and learning life lessons from it and going back to beg her for another chance.
