Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I'd like to ask, did you even love me
I did all-in only to be turned into pieces
It was as if the legend of Phoenix is real
'Coz I kept finding myself standing still
But I was glad to always got myself back, oh woh ooh
Can you do yourself a great favor
Respect yourself and love unconditionally
Those are the reasons as to why I kept forgiving you
But, I had to move on to protect myself from further hurt
Now that you're gone, I'm just so happy
I can even dance all night long
Play my guitar until I get tired
And sing my song to the top of my lungs, oh woh oohh
You were so bad, so very, very bad
And, do you think I didn't know that you painted me
As someone who's gone mad
All because I got my courage back and came forward
Oh how I wish you'll get your own reward
And share it with all your allies
You even made it looked like loving you is a crime
And, did you ever flinch when you pulled an "ad hominem" on me
Oh you, and all the things you have done
I don't know how you can even walk around
I did love you, but, I love my family and friends
I shouldn't have done all-in
Now that you're gone, I'm just so happy
I can even dance all night long
Play my guitar until I get tired
And sing my song to the top of my lungs, oh woh ohh
Oh woh, oh woh ohh, oh woh, oh woh ohh, oh, oh woh ohh
Now that you're gone, I'm just so happy
I can even dance all night long
Play my guitar until I get tired
And sing my song to the top of my lungs, oh woh ooh
