Her
Alextbh Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Darling
Won't you tell me
What do you see in her that you don't see in me
I know
No one can be blamed
Guess you were ashamed enough to lie right through your teeth

All I want
Is you to love me right
Why do I chase the high again and again
When I'm not her
And all I want
Is you to say you're right
Give it another try again and again
But I'm not her
No I'm not her

She's got it all
But you got it wrong if you think she's the enemy
I'm left with the worst parts that she'll never see
Why do you hurt the ones that love you endlessly

All I want
Is you to love me right
Why do I chase the high again and again
When I'm not her
And all I want
Is you to say you're right
Give it another try again and again
But I'm not her
No I'm not her

No I'm not her
Oh oh

Oh waking up with weights on my chest
Wasted all my time when will I learn

All I want
Is you to love me right
Why do I chase the high again and again
When I'm not her
And all I want
Is you to say you're right
Give it another try aain and again
But I'm not her
No I'm not her
No I'm not her
Whoa





No I'm not her
Whoa no I'm not her

Overall Meaning

These lyrics convey a sense of longing, pain, and frustration experienced by the singer in a romantic relationship. The singer is addressing their partner, whom they refer to as "Darling," and questioning what they see in "her" (another person) that they do not see in the singer. The singer admits that no one should be blamed for this, but believes their partner was too ashamed to tell the truth and instead chose to lie.


The singer yearns for their partner's love and attention, but constantly finds themselves chasing a feeling, referred to as "the high," which they have not been able to attain. They acknowledge that they are not the person their partner desires or longs for, yet they continue to hope that their partner will recognize this and give their relationship another chance. The repetition of the line "I'm not her" emphasizes the singer's awareness of their own shortcomings and their struggle to live up to the other person.


The lyrics also touch on the dynamic between the partner and the person they believe is their ideal, referred to as "she." The singer recognizes that their partner has misconstrued their perception, believing "she" is the enemy when in reality, she possesses qualities that the partner desires. The singer feels left with the worst parts of themselves that the partner may never fully see or appreciate. This suggests a sense of inadequacy and lack of understanding from the partner, causing the singer pain.


In the final verses, the singer reflects on the emotional burden they carry, waking up with weights on their chest, symbolizing the heaviness they feel from the unresolved issues in their relationship. They express remorse for wasting their time and question when they will finally learn to move on from this toxic cycle.


Overall, these lyrics depict a complex and emotionally charged relationship, where the singer grapples with their own insecurities and desires the love and acceptance of their partner, despite knowing that they do not measure up to their ideal.

@alextbhmusic

@@elijahtrenton8351 for her i had a fictional story in mind so i kept that in notes for the longest time, and i knew i want this to be a high energy pop song, and the lyrics are like confrontational and full of anger. i wrote a draft in the span of a few days back in 2020, and sent it to my producer buddy NASAYA to help with production and guitars cuz i cant play instruments for shiz lmaooo but yeah! quite a fun track to make

@raidenjack_tr8789

Is the song was about a guy who has a gf before but somehow got dumped by her because she choose a girl instead? Because the lyrics seems like it.
