Honey
Andrew Muccitelli Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I don't want your money - don't want my hands in your hair
And it isn't my fault I left the door unlocked
When you opened it, I was no longer there
It's cruel, baby - isn't it cruel
I see you staring at me from across the room
It's cruel, baby - you are so cruel
Honey, I don't like the life you're living
And you can tell me all the things you're feeling
Boy, you think you have me figured out
Lately, I have realized I'm not
Missing out if I'm not the one you're kissing
Do you think you have me figured out
I'm not who I used to be
I'm not who I used to be
I'm not who I used to be
I'm not the same boy - and neither are you
I"m scared for you, boy - and baby, me too
And I realize that if you really loved me, you'd tell me you do
It doesn't feel right, everything is blue
I'll focus on myself and forget about you
But I want to breathe free, so get your hands off my neck
I don't really like the life you're living
And you can tell me all the things you're feeling
Boy, you think you have me figured out
Lately, I have realized I'm not
Missing out if I'm not the boy you're kissing
Do you think you have me figured out
I'm not who I used to be
I'm not who I used to be
I'm not who I used to be
I'm not the same boy - and neither are you
There will always be a piece of you with me
But right now I just need some time to breathe
Do you wanna hold my hand
How could I, how could I, how could I expect you to understand
I don't really like the life you're living
And you can tell me all the things you're feeling
Boy, you think you have me figured out
Lately, I have realized I'm not
Missing out if I'm not the girl you're kissing
Do you think you have me figured out
I'm not who I used to be
I'm not who I used to be
I'm not who I used to be
I'm not the same boy - and neither are you
The lyrics of "Honey" by Andrew Muccitelli are about a dysfunctional relationship that isn't working out the way it used to be. The song addresses the singer's growing sense of inadequacy, where he no longer feels like he's missing out on life by not being with the person he used to love. The central theme of the song deals with the change in the persona's emotional and mental state and how the relationship is impacting him. "Honey" has a melancholic feel to it, tinged with a sense of regret, loss, and heartbreak that comes from the realization that it is time to move on.
The first verse is about the persona's relationship status, where he likens his girlfriend to "honey," a sweet and sticky substance. He then states that he doesn't want her money or for his hands to be in her hair, indicating that he doesn't have those feelings of love and affection anymore. The persona then blames his girlfriend for leaving the door unlocked when he decided to leave, suggesting that the two of them are not on the same page when it comes to their emotions.
The rest of the song is about how the persona doesn't feel the same way about his girlfriend and is ready to move on. The line "I'm not who I used to be - and neither are you" shows that they have both changed since they first started dating, and the relationship is no longer the same. The song ends with the persona reflecting on how he needs some time and space to focus on himself and forget about his girlfriend.
