Everything You're Not Lyrics

I've been bruised and I've been broken
Can't believe that I put up with all this pain
I've been used and I was choking
On the promise I would never fall again

I used to sing to your twisted symphony
The words that had me
Trapped inside your misery
But now I know
The reason why I couldn't breathe

'Cause all I want
Is everything you're not
So go ahead and slam the door
'Cause you can't shut me out
No, I don't, don't care what you say
'Cause all I really, all I really want
Is everything you're not

Never gonna break my heart again
Never gonna see your face again
(Everything you're not, not, not)
Never wanna feel this way again

Your darkness was my weakness
But it turns out that it only went so deep, deep
A meaningless diversion
That is all that you ever meant to me, me, me

And I am done
With your twisted symphony
The words that had me
Sound like stolen poetry
I tore the pages and I can finally breathe

'Cause all I want
Is everything you're not
So go ahead and slam the door
'Cause you can't shut me out
No, I don't, don't care what you say
'Cause all I really, all I really want
Is everything you're not

Never gonna break my heart again
Never gonna see your face again

I want a gentleman who treats me like a queen
I need respect, I need love
Nothing in between
I will not spell it out for you if you can't see
'Cause you're not worthy
You don't deserve me
And now I'm gone

Everything you're not, not, not
Everything you're not, not, not
(One, two, three)

'Cause all I want
Is everything you're not
So go ahead and slam the door
'Cause you can't shut me out
No, I don't, don't care what you say
All I really, all I really want
Is everything you're not

Never gonna break my heart again
Never gonna see your face again
Never wanna feel this way again (x3)

more like a self righteous song

This song is about a guy who continuously led her on ('I used to sing to your twisted symphony, the words that had me sound like stolen poetry). however, he was hurting her and hurting her and eventually she decides that he's not worth all the heartbreak. she wants someone who will respect her and who won't hurt her like he has; basically, she wants someone who is everything that the guy wasn't for her.

I can really relate to this song, so it's one of my favorites from her.

He has hurt her feelings over and over again. All she wants is for him to be everything is he isn't.
