Her Demise My Rise Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I did all i could to make my beauty stand strong
some people fake it what they should
Im disgusted
Id hate to see you
I hate you(x2)
Who the fuck are you
That my mind says giving up
Oh what have you turned
these lyrics seem to be expressing the frustration and disappointment of the singer towards someone they cared about. They start by questioning where they went wrong in their relationship, feeling like they gave their all to make it work but their efforts weren't appreciated. The use of "beauty" here could be a reference to the good things the singer brought into the relationship, or to the person they cared for. They then express disgust towards people who fake or pretend to be something they're not, possibly alluding to the cause of the relationship falling apart. The repetition of "I hate you" seems to be a manifestation of the singer's intense negative emotions towards this person, who they now no longer recognize or feel connected to.
The last lines of the lyrics suggest a feeling of defeat or hopelessness, as the singer's mind is telling them to give up, possibly on the relationship or on trying to make amends. The phrase "oh what have you turned" is left unfinished, leaving the listener to interpret what the singer meant, but it could be implying that the person they cared for has changed in some negative way that the singer can't accept.
