Bust Your Windows
Bust Your Windows Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
And no it didn't mend my broken heart
I'll probably always have these ugly scars
But right now I don't care about that part
I bust the windows out your car
After I saw you laying next to her
I didn't wanna but I took my turn
I'm glad I did it cuz you had to learn
I must admit it helped a little bit
To think of how you'd feel when you saw it
I didn't know that I had that much strength
But I'm glad you'll see what happens when
You see you can't just play with people's feelings
Tell them you love them and don't mean it
You'll probably say that it was juvenile
But I think that I deserve to smile
I bust the windows out your car
You know I did it cause I left my mark
Wrote my initials with a crow bar
And then I drove off into the dark
I bust the windows out your car
You should feel lucky that that's all I did
After five whole years of this bullshit
Gave you all of me and you played with it
I must admit it helped a little bit
To think of how you'd feel when you saw it
I didn't know that I had that much strength
But I'm glad you'll see what happens when
You see you can't just play with people's feelings
Tell them you love them and don't mean it
You'll probably say that it was juvenile
But I think that I deserve to smile
I bust the windows out your car
But it don't compare to my broken heart
You could never feel how I felt that day
Until that happens baby you don't know pain
Yea, I did it, you should know it
I ain't sorry, you deserved it
After what you did you deserved it
I ain't sorry, no
You broke my heart, so I broke your car
You caused me pain, so I did the same
Even though what you did was much worse
I had to do something to make you hurt, yea
Oh, but why am I still crying
Why am I the one whose still crying
Oh, oh, you really hurt me baby
You really, you really hurt me babe
I bust the windows out your car
In this song, Jazmine Sullivan expresses her heartbreak caused by her significant other’s infidelity. She retaliates by doing something drastic - breaking the windows of her ex-partner's car. Though it didn't immediately and completely heal her pain, it helped her feel a little better. Jazmine admits that the act was somewhat immature, but she states that she deserved to smile after all that she has been put through. She adds that the pain she went through was far worse than the damage she inflicted on the car.
The chorus of the song expresses her extreme emotions, ranging from the feeling of vengeance, to her heartbreak, to her continuous crying. The lyrics illustrate her feeling of being betrayed, and that her acts of vandalism are a result of her significant other's infidelity, which caused a deep-seated wound. She concludes the song by saying that she's still hurting, thus hinting that she hasn't completely moved on from the loss of her once-healthy relationship.

I'm 47, but nearly 18 years with a narc made me realize that sometimes the consequences are worth it. He already had me stopped by the police three times in two weeks, to the point where last time I tore into the cop before he even cleared the car, telling him this was ridiculous. He approached me, with his high-lumen flashlight in my face, saying he had to slam on his brakes to avoid hitting me.
I was on a bike and hugging the curb as I made a right turn. He had to pull into my neighborhood at a full 90 degree turn, and then navigate the deep dip in the street that slows cars for the elementary school that is there. Yet, he claimed to almost hit me? Liar.
I told him to get his flashlight out of my face because I have one too, and the box specifically warns that it can cause permanent damage to the eyes. He stopped with the light, but tried to continue intimidating me, right as my daughter came around the corner on her bike with my Belgian Malinois. He never even addressed the fact that she had no bike light, as he had done to me. And he said nothing about my Mal being off leash. It was me he wanted.
The funny thing is, even though I told him I lived in this neighborhood for 18 years, he never asked my address. And he never asked my name either. Who is pulled over by a cop and not asked their name? Could it be that the wife of a kung fu master who trained local PD and FBI is the target of some weird intimidation scheme? Seriously, a 47 year old woman, pulled over on a bike, or stopped at the park with her dog, or interrogated by police in her own bedroom the night after her hero husband had sexually assaulted her in their marriage bed, all seems a little to coincidental to be chance. Hell, I was not stopped by police that much when I was a little 20 year old rebel riding my bike with a screwdriver in my back pocket in the middle of the night. And the cop who had been at the park, whom I told where I lived and why I took my Mal to the park at all hours because she needs to be off-leash, well, he just happened to be driving past my home when I arrived home from walking my pup.
But the absolute marvelous thing was the little bitch who wouldn't leave my bedroom. Two cops come in, and yes, I had been having a fit because my husband held me down and told me he wouldn't "have a wife I (he) can't fuck. Oh, forgive me for losing my shit, especially when I know he already had his bag packed, and intentionally needled me about what he did to make me explode, and then he called the police, but didn't escape in time to avoid them.
I was in my bedroom, in underwear and a t-shirt. The male cop, clearly uncomfortable, listened to my reasons and got out of there asap. The little blond woman who was about 5 inches shorter than me, wouldn't leave. I relayed the info to her, told her why I might seem a little aggressive after being held down and groped, but she stayed. I asked her to leave and she wouldn't. I was so mad she is lucky I didn't grab her by the throat. No matter what I said she refused to leave my bedroom, so I got up.
I stood as close as possible to her, towering over her little blond ass, and said, "ARE YOU FUCKING STUPID? YOU ARE A WOMAN! HOW DARE YOU VIOLATE MY REQUEST AFTER WHAT I JUST TOLD YOU.
I know I am lucky to not have been arrested. But I make all those kinds of decisions carefully, now that I know what I am up against. She left. I didn't get arrested, but I still feel like she violated me, knowing that I was in a trauma state. In contrast, one night when I slept in my truck at the beach to avoid being raped for the fourth time, the cops drive by as I was barfing out the door. I'm sure I looked a mess and he could have easily taken me in to jail. But when I told him why I was like that, all he did was ask me if there was anything he could do. So sweet. Just goes to show you that maybe my local PD are slightly biased against me...
I would not have regretted going to jail for any of those things. I would have missed my cigarettes though. LOL. There were no cops around when I bashed the mirror off of my whore husband's new car, both times, so they never saw me do anything. That is the secret. Don't be on video or let the cops trick you. I'd rather go to jail than be a little bitch. Just because it is illegal doesn't mean it is wrong. He deserved much worse.
