Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴You speak to mee
And in your words I hear a melody
But in the twilight it's so hard to see
What's wrong for me
I can't resist
Until you give the truth a little twist
As if you're gonna get away with this
I can't believe I fell for this
I fell through the hole
Down at the bottom of your soul
Didn't think you could go so low
Look at what you done
You're losing me
Is what you've won
Got me planning to go solo
You sing to me
Too bad you couldn't even stay on key
If your life is such a mystery
Why don't you just stick to acting
Oh
Here we go again
You couldn't find my number until when
You thought that you could get to my best friend
Without a script your game is lacking
I can't believe I fell for this
I fell through the hole
Down at the bottom of your soul
Didn't think you could go so low
Look at what you done
You're losing me
Is what you've won
Got me planning to go solo
I'd rather go to a party alone
Than have to walk around with you on my arm
Now that I'm better to admit that we're done
Good luck trying to find me
Down at the bottom of your soul
Didn't think you could go solo
Oh oh oh
Look at what you've done
You're losing me
Here's what you've won
Got me planning to go solo
Now we're done oh oh
Cause you got me planning to go solo

Line by Line Meaning
You speak to me
When you talk to me, it sounds like music
And in your words I hear a melody
Your words flow together like a beautiful song
But in the twilight it's so hard to see
It's difficult to understand you when things are unclear
What's wrong for me
I can't figure out what's going on with you and me
I can't resist
I am drawn to you and can't help myself
Until you give the truth a little twist
You manipulate the truth to your advantage
As if you're gonna get away with this
You act as if your deception won't have consequences
You're not sorry
You don't feel remorse for the pain you cause
I can't believe I fell for this
I'm in disbelief that I allowed myself to be fooled
I fell through the hole
I got trapped in your deceit
Down at the bottom of your soul
Your true self has been revealed and it's dark
Didn't think you could go so low
I didn't expect you to behave so badly
Look at what you done
You've caused a lot of destruction
You're losing me
I'm slipping away from you
Is what you've won
Congratulations, you've won a prize - loneliness
Got me planning to go solo
I'm going to break away from you and be independent
Too bad you couldn't even stay on key
Your actions don't match up with your words
If your life is such a mystery
You keep things hidden and unknown
Why don't you just stick to acting
You're better off pretending, because you're not good at being real
Here we go again
We've been through this cycle before
You couldn't find my number until when
You ignored me until it benefitted you
You thought that you could get to my best friend
You tried to use my friend to get closer to me
Without a script your game is lacking
You can't hide behind a facade anymore
I'd rather go to a party alone
I'd rather be by myself than be with you
Than have to walk around with you on my arm
I don't want to show you off to the world
Now that I'm better to admit that we're done
I'm ready to acknowledge that our relationship is over
Good luck trying to find me
You won't be able to locate me easily
Now we're done
Our relationship is officially over
Cause you got me planning to go solo
You pushed me away and made me want to be independent
