Too Rude
Carmen Rizzo featuring Esthero Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Too rude
To say you're sorry
Too rude
Just say you're leaving me
I can't pretend that I don't mind
So I'm
The better woman now.
Well you could scream out
But no ones listening
And to me your silence is deafening
I can't pretend that I don't mind
So I'm the better woman now
Too rude
Too rude
Just say you're sorry




Just say you're sorry
Just say you're leaving me

The song has a melancholic and sad tone, as it reflects the pain of letting go but also the strength that comes with it.

The singer realizes that she is deserving of someone who treats her with respect and kindness, and is not willing to settle for less. By choosing to walk away from a toxic relationship, she is taking control of her life and refusing to be a victim.
