Black Dan Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

Now you know I know, head in a hole
By saying nothin' you take control.
Passive aggressive, a daily routine,
Now you pollute, even my dreams

You've got some nerve (you've got some nerve)
To stand and say (to stand and say)
Oh, it's all (all) just (just) fine.

You've got some nerve (you've got some nerve)
To stand and say (to stand and say)
Why you havin' (havin') a good (a good) time?

I don't wanna be yours no more
Not yours no more
Don't wanna be this where I just exist
Can I have a little bit
I don't wanna be yours no more
Not yours no more
Don't wanna be this where I just exist
Can I have a little bit more

Well you know I know who stole my soul,
Threw it in a bag into a hole.
Passive aggressive, a daily routine,
Now you pollute, even my dreams.

You've got some nerve (you've got some nerve)
To stand and say (to stand and say)
Oh, it's all (all) just (just) fine.
You've got some nerve (you've got some nerve)
To stand and say (to stand and say)
Why you havin' (havin') a good (a good) time?

I don't wanna be yours no more
Not yours no more
Don't wanna be this where I just exist
Can I have a little bit
I don't wanna be yours no more
Not yours no more
Don't wanna be this where I just exist
Can I have a little bit more

It goes round round round round round round round,
It goes round round round round round round round
It goes round and round and round and round
And round and round it It goes round ow

Well you know I know, head in a hole,
By saying nothing, you take control.
Passive aggressive, a daily routine,
Now you pollute, even my dreams.

I don't wanna be yours no more
Not yours no more
Don't wanna be this where I just exist
Can I have a little bit
I don't wanna be yours no more
Not yours no more
Don't wanna be this where I just exist
Can I have a little bit more

Not yours no more
Not yours no more
Not yours no more
Not yours no more
Not yours no more

Not yours no more
Not yours no more ah

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of "Yours" by Black Dan are about breaking free from a toxic and controlling relationship. The singer is clearly not happy with how the relationship is going and is tired of being pushed around. The lyrics speak to the frustration of being in a relationship where the other person is passive-aggressive and constantly trying to control everything.

The first verse speaks to the feeling of being suffocated and smothered by the other person. The singer feels like they are 'head in a hole' and that they can't escape the other person's influence. They also feel like the other person is taking control by saying nothing, which is a clear sign of passive-aggressiveness. The line "Now you pollute, even my dreams" adds an element of horror to the situation, as the other person's poisonous influence is affecting even the singer's subconscious mind.

The chorus is a strong declaration of independence and a desire to break free from the relationship. The singer is stating that they don't want to be with the other person anymore and that they don't want to just exist in the relationship. They are looking for something more, some kind of fulfilment that they are not finding in their current situation.

The second verse restates some of the same ideas as the first, but with a stronger sense of anger and bitterness. The singer is not just tired of the relationship, they are angry at the other person for taking their soul and throwing it into a hole. The line "Now you pollute, even my dreams" takes on a more ominous tone in this verse, as the 'pollution' is now seen as a violation of the singer's very being.

Overall, "Yours" is a poignant song about the emotional and psychological damage that can be caused by a controlling and toxic relationship. It speaks to the feeling of being trapped and suffocated, as well as the need for independence and self-determination.
