Unfaithful
Comeea Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Searching for the right
But it keeps avoiding me
Sorrow in my soul
'Cause it seems that wrong
Really loves my company
He's more than a man
The reason that the sky is blue
The clouds are rolling in
Because I'm gone again
And to him I just can't be true
And I know that he knows I'm unfaithful
And it kills him inside
To know that I am happy with some other guy
I can see him dying
I don't wanna do this anymore
I don't wanna be the reason why
Every time I walk out the door
I see him die a little more inside
I don't wanna hurt him anymore
I don't wanna take away his life
I don't wanna be
A murderer
I feel it in the air
As I'm doing my hair
Preparing for another date
A kiss upon my cheek
As he reluctantly
Asks if I'm gonna be out late
I say I won't be long
Just hanging with the girls
A lie I didn't have to tell
Because we both know
Where I'm about to go
And we know it very well
'Cause I know that he knows I'm unfaithful
And it kills him inside
To know that I am happy with some other guy
I can see him dying
I don't wanna do this anymore
I don't wanna be the reason why
Every time I walk out the door
I see him die a little more inside
I don't wanna hurt him anymore
I don't wanna take away his life
I don't wanna be
A murderer
Our love, his trust
I might as well take a gun and put it to his head
Get it over with
I don't wanna do this
Anymore
Uh
Anymore
And I don't wanna do this anymore
I don't wanna be the reason why
And every time I walk out the door
I see him die a little more inside
And I don't wanna hurt him anymore
I don't wanna take away his life
I don't wanna be
A murderer
A murderer
No no no no
Yeah yeah yeah yeah
The song “Unfaithful” by Rihanna is a story of a woman who is in a relationship but is not in love with her partner. The lyrics embody the singer’s feelings of guilt and desperation as she is continuously unfaithful to her partner. The singer acknowledges that her actions are causing her partner pain emotionally and mentally, but she is still unable to stop cheating. The song shows a deep sense of remorse and the struggle between love and lust. The pain of her partner is slowly killing him, and the singer began to feel like a murderer, wanting to spare her partner's life. She is overwhelmed by her feelings and is unable to make a choice.
The lyrics of the song “Unfaithful” have two interpretations: The first is the literal interpretation of a cheating partner, and the second is of someone who is battling their demons.

The singer is pleading for help from herself as she can’t seem to stop the unfaithful behavior, but it seems to follow her. This song is relatable to everyone who has ever had a close relationship with someone who is facing addiction, infidelity, or any other addiction that causes pain to them.
