Dirtie Blonde Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
When you ask too much, too soon
No one's willing to provide you
When you're eager to consume
But you'll grow up, it's not that bad
You think of feelings you once had
And although the memories fade
Certain things remain
[Chorus:]
And it's you that keeps me lonely
And it's you that brings me home
It's you that left me out here on my own
On my own
And I was just a child
I invested all I had
In a love that felt like fire, oh
With a boy and not a man
I swore I'd never love again
That my heart would never mend
[Chorus:]
And you know I got a lot
I'm a friend and I'm a lover
And I've moved on from what we had
And it's safe to say that I wish you well
'Cause I don't hold a grudge no more
[Chorus:]
Yes, it's you that makes me careful
'Cause it's you that breaks my heart
It's you that made me tough and twice as smart
And you know I got a lot
I'm a friend and I'm a lover
And I've moved on from what we had
And it's safe to say that I wish you well
'Cause I don't hold a grudge no more
The lyrics of "Lonely" by Dirtie Blonde talk about the pain of being left alone and being betrayed in love. The song is about a person who invested all of their emotions in a love that proved to be one-sided, with the other person not being able to provide what they needed. Despite feeling alone and abandoned, the person realizes that they have grown and learned from their experiences. They have become stronger and more aware of what they need in relationships.
The chorus of the song repeats the phrase "And it's you that keeps me lonely," and this line captures the heart of the lyrics. The person is still haunted by their past love and their inability to provide what they needed. The song doesn't offer a happy ending, but instead, serves as a reminder of the pain that can come with love and the lessons that can be learned from it.
Overall, the song is a poignant reflection on love and heartbreak, and it offers a message of hope to those who have been left alone by their past loves. The powerful lyrics and haunting melody of the song make it a moving and memorable piece of music.
Line by Line Meaning
No one will stand by you
There is no one who will be there for you
When you ask too much, too soon
If you demand too much too quickly, people will not stick around
No one's willing to provide you
No one is willing to give you what you want
When you're eager to consume
When you are eager to take without giving
But you'll grow up, it's not that bad
You will mature and realize things aren't as bad as they seem
You think of feelings you once had
You reminisce about the emotions you used to feel
And although the memories fade
Even if the memories begin to fade
Certain things remain
Certain things will always stay with you
And it's you that keeps me lonely
You are the reason I am lonely
And it's you that brings me home
You are the one who makes me feel like I belong
It's you that left me out here on my own
You are the one who abandoned me and left me to fend for myself
And I was just a child
I was still young and naive
I invested all I had
I put all my trust and love into someone
In a love that felt like fire, oh
In a strong, passionate love
With a boy and not a man
With someone who was not yet mature enough to handle a real relationship
I swore I'd never love again
I promised myself I would never trust anyone enough to fall in love again
That my heart would never mend
That my heart would remain broken
And you know I got a lot
I have a lot to offer
I'm a friend and I'm a lover
I can be both a friend and a romantic partner
And I've moved on from what we had
I have let go of the past and moved forward
And it's safe to say that I wish you well
I truly hope you are doing well
'Cause I don't hold a grudge no more
I am no longer angry or resentful towards you
Yes, it's you that makes me careful
You are the reason I am cautious
'Cause it's you that breaks my heart
Because you have hurt me in the past
It's you that made me tough and twice as smart
You are the reason I have become stronger and wiser
