Criticize
Adelitas_Way Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I need you, you need me
We make the perfect kind of misery
I help you, you help me
Become the one I swore I'd never be
The one that I don't ever wanna be

I like the way you won't apologize
I like the way you just demoralize
I like the way you always roll your eyes
Someone as perfect as you is hard to criticize

Suppress this, this hatred
I stand beside you while you soak it in
Spit on me, I taste it
I love you more and you just fake it
I want you more and you just faked it

I like the way you won't apologize
I like the way you just demoralize
I like the way you always roll your eyes
Someone as perfect as you is hard to criticize

There's always something wrong
There's something I didn't do
There's always something I'm afraid I'm gonna lose
There's nothing I can say
There's nothing I can do
No matter how hard I try, I wake up next to you

I like the way you won't apologize
I like the way you just demoralize
I like the way you always roll your eyes
Someone as perfect as you is hard to criticize

I like the way you won't apologize
I like the way you just demoralize
I like the way you always roll your eyes
Someone as perfect as you is hard to criticize

It's hard to criticize
It's hard to criticize




It's hard to criticize
It's hard to criticize

Overall Meaning

In the song "Criticize", Adelitas Way explores the complicated dynamics of a romantic relationship that is built on a foundation of mutual misery and self-loathing, but also love and dependence. The singer acknowledges that he and his partner, who he deems "perfect", are not good for each other, and that they both bring out the worst in each other. Despite this, he admits that he cannot help but be drawn to her, and that the constant tension and conflict in their relationship is something he thrives on. He is aware that their relationship is far from healthy or sustainable, but continues to stay with her regardless.


The chorus of the song, where the singer repeats the line "I like the way you won't apologize/I like the way you just demoralize", speaks to the twisted nature of their relationship. The singer admits that he is attracted to the way his partner refuses to take responsibility for her actions and is quick to put him down. In this way, he feels that she is perfect for him, and is someone who is hard to criticize.


Overall, "Criticize" is a song about the complexities of relationships and how they can be both destructive and fulfilling at the same time, and how it can be hard to break away from someone who brings out the worst in you.

ADELITAS WAY (2011) – CRITICIZE (Traducción)
I need you, you need me
Te necesito, me necesitas
We make the perfect kind of misery
Formamos el perfecto tipo de desgracia
I help you, you help me
Te ayudo, me ayudas
Become the one I swore I'd never be, the one that I don't ever wanna be
Me estoy convirtiendo en lo que juré que nunca sería, el que nunca quise ser
I like the way you won't apologize
Me gusta la manera en la que no te disculpas
I like the way you just demoralize
Me gusta la manera en la que desmoralizas
I like the way you always roll your eyes
Me gusta la manera en la que pones los ojos en blanco
Someone as perfect as you is hard to criticize
Alguien tan perfecta como tú es difícil de criticar
Suppress this, this hatred
Reprime este odio
I stand beside you while you soak it in
Estoy al lado mientras te sumerges en él
Spit on me, I taste it
Escúpeme, lo saboreo
I love you more and you just fake it
Te amo más y tú sólo finges
I want you more and you just fake it
Te quiero más y tú sólo finges
I like the way you won't apologize
Me gusta la manera en la que no te disculpas
I like the way you just demoralize
Me gusta la manera en la que desmoralizas

Me gusta la manera en la que pones los ojos en blanco
Someone as perfect as you is hard to criticize
Alguien tan perfecta como tú es difícil de criticar
There's always something wrong
Siempre hay algo mal
There's something I didn't do
Siempre hay algo que no hice
There's always something I'm afraid I'm gonna lose
Hay algo que me temo que voy a perder
There's nothing I can say
No hay nada que pueda decir
There's nothing I can do
No hay nada que pueda hacer
No matter how hard I try I wake up next to you
No importa cuánto me esfuerze, me despierto a tu lado
I like the way you won't apologize
Me gusta la manera en la que no te disculpas
I like the way you just demoralize
Me gusta la manera en la que desmoralizas
I like the way you always roll your eyes
Me gusta la manera en la que pones los ojos en blanco
