Damn Girl Lyrics
If you feel like running today
You know I'd understand
You don't, but you won't
It's easier to give it away
When, on the other hand, you know
I, I'm not much better without you
I'm like your victim
And all that you need is an alibi
That's one thing about you
I don't wanna make you cry
Damn, girl
Dry your eyes
You stole my heart
And then you kicked it aside
No, girl
You can't see
When he's inside you
Know there's no room for me
If you can take a chance
(Take a chance)
Find you that better man
A life seize
From your quaint disease
You're giving all my loving away
Tell me to understand
'Cause you know
I, I'm not much better without you
I press your lips
And I taste everyone that you've had tonight
That's one thing about you
I don't wanna taste tonight
Damn, girl
Dry your eyes
(Dry your eyes)
You stole my heart
And then you kicked it aside
No, girl
You can't see
(You can't see)
When he's inside you
Know there's no room for me
And I used to think that I was all you would need
(Na na na)
And there you go again
(Na na na)
You think that you can just push me around
(Na na na)
Yeah, and there you go again
You lift me up
And then you throw me back down
Damn, girl
Dry your eyes
(Dry your eyes)
You stole my heart
And then you kicked it aside
No, girl
You can't see
(You can't see)
When he's inside you
Know there's no room for me
(Damn that girl)
Damn, girl
(Damn, girl)
Dry your eyes
(Dry your eyes)
You stole my heart
And then you kicked me aside
(Damn that girl)
No, girl
(Damn, girl)
You can't see
(You can't see)
When he's inside you
Know there's no room for me
And I used to think that I was all you would need
If you feel like running today
You know I'd understand
You know I'd understand
You don't, but you won't
It's easier to give it away
When, on the other hand, you know
I'm like your victim
And all that you need is an alibi
That's one thing about you
I don't wanna make you cry
Dry your eyes
You stole my heart
And then you kicked it aside
No, girl
You can't see
When he's inside you
Know there's no room for me
(Take a chance)
Find you that better man
A life seize
From your quaint disease
You're giving all my loving away
Tell me to understand
'Cause you know
I press your lips
And I taste everyone that you've had tonight
That's one thing about you
I don't wanna taste tonight
Dry your eyes
(Dry your eyes)
You stole my heart
And then you kicked it aside
No, girl
You can't see
(You can't see)
When he's inside you

(Damn that girl)
(Damn, girl)
Dry your eyes
(Dry your eyes)
You stole my heart
And then you kicked me aside
(Damn that girl)
No, girl
(Damn, girl)

(You can't see)
When he's inside you

You know I'd understand

i love the chorus
and i love this part: I, I'm not much better without you I press your lips And I taste everyone That you've had tonight It's one thing about you I don't wanna taste tonight
this song isn't half bad.
and i think the meaning is pretty obvious. she's a bitch to him and doesn't know what she wants and he's done with that anyway. damn girls.
it's so easy to relate to this song!
i think this its like this guy is so into this girl but she is isn't interested in him at all, although i think she comes crying to him at times and builds him up
he says 'damn girl, dry ur eyes, you stole my heart and then you kicked it aside' shes crying over all her problems and hes like damn girl dry ur eyes look at wat u hav done to me, u dont need to cry
'When, on the other hand, you know I, I'm not much better without you' because the girl knows that he isn't going to b happy without her she can go off wit other boys knowing he will take her back
'I press your lips And I taste everyone That you've had tonight It's one thing about you I don't wanna taste tonight'
wen it is finally his term to get wit her he can taste in her mouth all the other boys she got wit that night, i wish the last line was 'thats one thing i want to taste tonight'
'You're giving all my loving away Tell me to understand' she looks over all his love probably she has another boy, she is giving all the love he gives to her to him
'Yeah, and there you go again You lift me up And then you throw me back down' she builds him up over and over again, leading him only to drop him again, its almost as if he knows wat she is doing yet he cant help himself,
'If you feel like running today You know I'd understand ' but after everything, he still is there for her cause he loves too much, he will still understand if she doens't choose him
just how i picture it
i agree with thrwmyhrtawy she's being a total bitch to him.
It seems to be about a girl who's whoring it up...
"I'm not much better without you" He's pretty much alone either way because she's with other guys and doesn't really want him.
"And all you need is an alibi" She always has a cover for where she's been and who she's been with.
The "damn, girl" part seems to be a bit of a double entendre. It's a play on the fact that guys might say that when they see/talk to a hot chick, and also because he's realising that it's her fault that things are messed up its more of a 'damn girl you's a hoe!' kind of thing :P
"You stole my heart And then you kicked it aside" Maybe they slept together, maybe they hooked up, but it seems like they had some form of encounter and she thought it was casual and treated it so while he thought it was something more. He fell for her and she didn't want him.
"When he's inside you Know there's no room for me" This part is a very sexual line - 'inside' meaning intercourse, so when she's off having casual sex with anyone she's not thinking of or caring about him. Also it can be a less explicit reference to loving someone, as in inside your heart.
"Find you that better man" She thinks the grass is always greener on the other side.
"And I used to think That I was all you would need" He doesn't satisfy her, emotionally, sexually, whatever. He thought he could tame her perhaps.
"You lift me up And then you throw me back down" She's leading him on and then shooting him down.
what does this song mean?
haha read the comment right....^there^
haha read the comment right....^there^
this is one of my favorite songs off when the world comes down. i think the meaning is obvious, that he's through with putting up with some girls crap. but i dont think the line "when he's inside you know there's no room for me" is sexual. i think he just means that when another guy is inside her mind or heart, he's not going to deal with that, thus there's no room for him.
i get the impression that this song is like him wanting a girl to realize she can't have them both.
i think that "when he's inside you know there's no room for me" is meant to be sexual. it's pretty harsh. it makes me say "ouch!" thinking about that zinger. haha. love this song.
I think that "Potatoes" interpretation of this song is really accurate. To me, it seems as though this song is about a girl that's been "around the block" and this guy that can't help but fall for her. He knows that she's bad for him but he loves he and keeps trying to prove to himself that she'll change. They probably would've either hooked up even slept together and because of this, he still think that he has a chance with her. Also, when he says "Damn girl, dry your eyes. You stole me heart and then you kicked it aside." he means to say "What the fuck! You've apparently got problems. What the fuck do ou have to cry about?" But yeah, that's just my interpretation of this song. Ciao :)
I don't really get the "i'm your victim when all that you need is an alibi" & "A life seize from your quaint disease" parts :/ someone explain please?
