Guilty
Blue Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I never want to play the games that people play
I never want to hear the things they gotta say
I've found everything I need
I never wanted anymore than I can see
I only want you to believe

If it's wrong to tell the truth
Then what am I supposed to do
When all I want to do is speak my mind (speak my mind)
If it's wrong to do what's right
I'm prepared to testify
If loving you with all my heart's a crime
Then I'm guilty

I want to give you all the things you never had
Don't try to tell me how he treats you isn't bad
I need you back in my life
I never wanted just to be the other guy (be the other guy)
I never wanted to live a lie

If it's wrong to tell the truth
What am I supposed to do
All I want to do is speak my mind (speak my mind)
If it's wrong to do what's right
I'm prepared to testify
If loving you with all my heart's a crime
Then I'm guilty

Girl I followed my heart
Followed the truth
Right from the start it led me to you
Please don't leave me this way
I'm guilty now all I have to say

If it's wrong to tell the truth
Then what am I supposed to do
When all I want to do is speak my mind (speak my mind)
If it's wrong to do what's right
I'm prepared to testify
If loving you with all my hearts a crime
Then I'm guilty

What am I supposed to do
Then I'm guilty
All I want to do is speak my mind
Guilty
Then I'm guilty
I'm prepared to testify
If it's wrong to do what's right then tell me about this feeling inside




If loving you with all my hearts a crime
I'm guilty

Overall Meaning

The song "Guilty" by Blue is about a person who is willing to speak their truth and confess their love to someone, even if society deems it wrong or scandalous. The lyrics suggest that the singer has found everything they need with this person and they only want this person to believe in them. The chorus repeats a phrase that says if loving this person with all their heart is a crime, then the singer is guilty. The song is about taking a stand for what you believe in, even if it means going against the norm.


The first verse of the song mentions that the singer doesn't want to play the games or hear what others have to say. This could signify their desire to be real and honest with this person and not get caught up in the social constructs of the world. They only want to be with this person and nothing more. In the pre-chorus, the singer questions what they are supposed to do if it's wrong to tell the truth and speak their mind. This is an expression of their struggle with the norms of society and their own deeply held beliefs.


In the second verse, the singer expresses their desire to be with the person they love and their willingness to be faithful to them. They mention that they never wanted to be just the other guy and they never wanted to live a lie. This again could be an indication that they want to be truthful and open with this person, without any deception. The chorus is repeated again in the end, with the singer again confessing their love and their guilt for feeling this way.
