Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
There was something in your eyes
And it wasn't right
I should've walked but I never had the chance
Everything got out of hand and I let it slide
Now I only have myself to blame
For falling for your stupid games
I wish my life could be the way it was before I saw your face
You stole my happy
You made me cry
You took the lonely and took me for a ride
And I wanna un un un un undo it
You had my heart now I want it back
I'm starting to see everything you lack
Boy you blew it
You put me through it
I wanna un un un un undo it
Na na na na na
Na na na na na
Na na na na na na
Now your photos don't have a picture frame
And I never say your name and I never will
And all your things well I threw them in the trash
And I'm not even sad
Now you only have yourself to blame
For playing all those stupid games
You're always gonna be the same
Oh no you'll never change
You stole my happy
You made me cry
You took the lonely and took me for a ride
And I wanna un un un un undo it
You had my heart now I want it back
I'm starting to see everything you lack
Boy you blew it
You put me through it
I wanna un un un un undo it
Na na na na na
Na na na na na
Na na na na na na
You want my future you can't have it
Still trying to erase you from my past
I need you gone so fast
You stole my happy
You made me cry
You took the lonely and took me for a ride
And I wanna un un un un undo it
You had my heart now I want it back
I'm starting to see everything you lack
Boy you blew it
You put me through it
I wanna un un un un undo it
You stole my happy
You made me cry
You took the lonely and took me for a ride
Boy you blew it
You put me through it
I wanna un un un un undo it

The bridge represents the singerโs turning point, where she has let go of the toxic relationship completely. She is in the process of moving on and looking towards a better future.

Should've known by the way you pass me by
I should have paid attention to the way you ignored me
There was something in your eyes
You had a look of deceit in your eyes
And it wasn't right
Your behavior towards me was not morally correct
I should've walked but I never had the chance
I should have distanced myself, but I didn't get the opportunity
Everything got out of hand and I let it slide
The situation escalated and I didn't put a stop to it
Now I only have myself to blame
I am responsible for my own downfall
For falling for your stupid games
For getting fooled by your manipulative games
I wish my life could be the way it was before I saw your face
I miss my life before I met you and got entangled in your trap
You stole my happy
You took away my joy and contentment
You made me cry
You caused me emotional pain and tears
You took the lonely and took me for a ride
You took advantage of my loneliness and naivety
And I wanna un un un un undo it
I desperately want to undo everything that happened between us
You had my heart now I want it back
You were in possession of my heart, but now I want it back
I'm starting to see everything you lack
I am beginning to realize all the bad qualities you possess
Boy you blew it
You made a huge mistake and messed up badly
You put me through it
You made my life difficult and caused me troubles
Now your photos don't have a picture frame
I don't value your memories or presence anymore
And I never say your name and I never will
I refuse to acknowledge or mention your name
And all your things well I threw them in the trash
I disposed of all the things that remind me of you
And I'm not even sad
I am not the least bit upset by that act
Now you only have yourself to blame
You brought this upon yourself
For playing all those stupid games
For engaging in all those manipulative schemes
You're always gonna be the same
You will continue to be the same kind of person
Oh no you'll never change
You will never choose to become a better person
You want my future you can't have it
You desire for a place in my future, but that is not happening
Still trying to erase you from my past
I am struggling to forget all the hurt you caused me in the past
I need you gone so fast
I want you out of my life as soon as possible
