So Demanding
Bag Raiders Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Try to keep you satisfied
You roll your eyes and look so tired
Baby it's not easy
Doin' my best but always fail
Need some new air, got too stale
Now I can see a way
Hanging on from day to day
I feel like I can't take it
I'm fresh out of ideas right now
If there's someway then show me how
Girl you're so demanding
Nothing that I say or do
Can ever get a smile from you
Act like you're so busy
Feel bad for the time I take
You leave me trailing in you're wake
I think I'm going crazy
It's like I'm on a different page
But you're the one whose acting strange
So baby whats the answer?
Right now I got no idea
Wish I could just disappear
Just disappear

He is hanging on from day to day and is unsure of what the future holds for their relationship. He feels like he is going crazy as he tries to keep up with the woman's demands, and his partner's behavior leaves him confused and lost.
