Let Down Lyrics

I've been so good to you.
Whatever you need, not there from me.
Expecting you to be a remedy, doing what you please.
Still making me sick at the thought of you and me.
I stay with you, then leave you for a week, don't answer calls,
Or hung up on me, I'm by the phone.
And I wish I could breathe,
I'm so good for you but you're so bad for me, yeah.

And it's hard to believe that it's me that you're missing.
Now you're trying to speak and I don't want to listen.

Cause you're a let down, let down.
Cause you're a let down, let down.

Give me one reason to make it right, yeah.
Anything at all for another try, oh oh.

Cause you're a let down, let down.

Almost feel bad for you,
You got my sympathy, I'm sober now.
And I can finally see with clarity,
And yeah I can agree you can take the heat, I'm sorry that I'm weak.
I hate myself for putting up with all your pointless fights.
You were out to cheat, I blocked the phone.
I bet we can agree I've been good for you but you're so bad for me, yeah.

Cause you're a let down, let down.
Cause you're a let down, let down.

Give me one reason to make it right, yeah.
Anything at all for another try, oh oh.

Cause you're a let down, let down.

Cause you're a let down, let down, so we're done.

And it's hard to believe that it's me that you're missing.
Now you're trying to speak and I don't want to listen.

Cause you're a let down, let down.
Cause you're a let down, let down.

Give me one reason to make it right, yeah.
Anything at all for another try, oh oh.
Cause you're a let down, let down.

Cover art for Let Down lyrics by Palisades

Seems clear this is about a relationship between two people that was doomed from the start. One person was doing their best to be loving & hang in there while the other one was creating drama, playing games and pretending to be in love. Finally the games become too much and this song is about the latter being called out for all their past transgressions.

My Interpretation
Cover art for Let Down lyrics by Palisades

It's obvious. the lyrics speak about a toxic relationship, being constantly proven that there is a let down on building any trust in each other. this song actually helped me get through a bad break up in the past. Cognitive behavioral therapy at it's best, when you attach the lyrics to how you can relate and feel in the lyrics. I can see this being a reminder, that your worth is more important than to keep chasing after someone toxic. if there is anyone, who stumbles upon this page and sees my opinion. just know not all women are vile and ruthless, you just happened to be dating a borderline narcissistic bitch. you'll find someone better who won't put you through some awful shit
