So Sick
11/5 Lyrics

The lyrics of 11/5's song "So Sick" delve into the complexities and struggles of a tumultuous relationship. The singer expresses their inner turmoil and confusion about the situation with lines like "I've been thinking on my mind, What you give me so much love all the time." Despite the love that is given, there is a sense of frustration and weariness that emerges, as evidenced by the repetition of "Everytime I'm sick of love, I'm sick of actin' like we tide in."

The singer confronts the issues within the relationship, including lies and deception, with lines such as "Knowing' you on bullshit, always fuckin' lying." There is a battle with personal demons and the struggle to maintain faith and trust in the face of adversity, as seen in the lines "Problems with my demons, bitch, I put on God, I'm tryin." This inner conflict is further emphasized with the metaphor of feeling like "I'm dying" and being unable to break free from the toxic cycle.

The lyrics also touch upon feelings of betrayal and hurt, with the singer questioning how they could have been left alone to fend for themselves. The themes of abandonment and manipulation are highlighted through lines like "How could you play me so long, Think I turn around and forget." Despite the hurt and disappointment, there is a recognition of the need to move on and let go of toxic relationships that no longer serve a purpose.

Towards the end of the song, there is a shift in perspective as the singer contemplates retaliating and playing the same game that they have been subjected to. The mention of others reaching out and tempting the singer with offers of physical intimacy reflects a desire for revenge or escapism from the pain. Ultimately, the lyrics convey a sense of resignation and acceptance that the relationship is beyond repair, symbolized by the notion of "closed curtains" and the realization that playing games and manipulation have no place in a healthy partnership.
