Over It
Elaine Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Is this my turn to hurt you?
Ego is fighting for its own
Playing games with my thoughts
I'm over it
I am not
I'm over it
Flowers growing on new floor
Still your seed is dried inside me
'Cause went to deep to bring it out
I want you here
I hate you
I want your face
To break it
Still the wounds are bleeding strong
Some things will never go away
I hate you, I really do
I hate you, I HATE YOU
And I really, really want you to die
Different like the sea and the sky
But still we kiss in reflection...
In Elaine's song "Over It," the lyrics depict a complex emotional journey of being stuck in a toxic relationship, grappling with conflicting feelings and the desire for closure. The opening lines, "You asked for it, we are done, Is this my turn to hurt you?" suggest a sense of resignation, implying that the singer has reached a breaking point and is ready to inflict the same pain they have been subjected to. The reference to the ego fighting for its own highlights the power dynamics at play, where both individuals are engaged in a manipulative game, trying to assert control over each other's emotions.
The chorus, "I'm over it, I am not, I'm over it, I am not," showcases the internal struggle of the singer, vacillating between wanting to move on and feeling trapped in the residual emotions of the relationship. The mention of flowers growing on new floors symbolizes the potential for growth and new beginnings. However, the line "Still your seed is dried inside me, 'Cause went too deep to bring it out," suggests that despite the desire to move on, the wounds inflicted by the partner still linger, and the pain runs deep.
The second verse highlights the conflicting emotions further. The singer expresses a longing for the partner's presence ("I want you here") while simultaneously harboring hatred for them ("I hate you, I want your face to break it"). The wounds mentioned continue to bleed, indicating that the scars from the relationship are still raw and impactful. The repeated refrain of "I hate you, I really do, I hate you, I HATE YOU, and I really, really want you to die" reflects the intense anger and resentment the singer feels, perhaps a manifestation of the pain they have endured.
The song concludes with the line "Different like the sea and the sky, but still we kiss in reflection," portraying the paradoxical nature of the relationship. Despite the differences between the individuals, they are inexplicably drawn to each other, unable to fully break free.
Overall, "Over It" delves into the complexities of emotions experienced in a toxic relationship, showcasing the conflicting feelings of love and hatred, longing and resentment, and the struggle to move on while being haunted by past wounds.
Line by Line Meaning
You asked for it, we are done
You provoked this, our relationship is over
Is this my turn to hurt you?
Am I now the one who will cause you pain?
Ego is fighting for its own
Our pride is battling for control
Playing games with my thoughts
Toying with my emotions
I'm over it
I'm done with this
I am not
Actually, I'm not completely over it
Flowers growing on new floor
New beginnings and growth
Still your seed is dried inside me
But your influence still remains within me
'Cause went to deep to bring it out
Because it's too difficult to remove completely
I want you here
I desire your presence
I hate you
I have strong feelings of anger towards you
I want your face
I want to see you suffer
To break it
To shatter your image
Still the wounds are bleeding strong
The pain and hurt are still intense
Some things will never go away
Certain feelings and memories will always remain
I hate you, I really do
I genuinely despise you
I hate you, I HATE YOU
I have an overwhelming level of hatred towards you
And I really, really want you to die
I have a strong desire for your demise
Different like the sea and the sky
We may be complete opposites
But still we kiss in reflection...
Yet we still have a connection, despite our differences
