Mad
Hope Tala Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
And you don't feel the way I do
Who's to blame?
Well Cupid is, before his arrow disappears
Is it too much to ask not to be left in the dark?
Staring out the window (window), crying (crying)
Waiting for you to come back (come back)
Closing my eyes to relax
I'm singing for solace
You're falling out of my pocket
Can't believe I messed it up
Bet you're relieved
But it makes me mad, mad, mad, mad
And I'm tearing my hair out
Tearing my hair out
Yeah, I'm tearing my hair out
Tearing my hair out
It's not right, that you're okay
And all your feelings dissipate
While I scream, and punch the walls
And you're not picking up my calls
Is it too much to ask not to be left in the dark?
Sing me an older (older) song I (song I)
Don't know the words to this one
Let me see the final (final) sun out (sun out)
Side before the storm comes
I'm singing for solace
You're falling out of my pocket
Can't believe I messed it up
Bet you're relieved
But it makes me mad, mad, mad, mad
And I'm tearing my hair out (mad, mad, mad)
Tearing my hair out (mad, mad, mad)
Yeah, I'm tearing my hair out (mad, mad, mad)
Tearing my hair out
You're making a mess of me
Like we don't have history
Don't I deserve sympathy?
For drowning in all your misery
It's just like you to be so glad
Proud of the power I let you have over me
But you make me mad
Mad
And I'm tearing my hair out (mad, mad, mad)
Tearing my hair out (mad, mad, mad)
Yeah, I'm tearing my hair out (mad, mad, mad)
Tearing my hair out (mad, mad, mad)
And I'm tearing my hair out (mad, mad, mad)
Tearing my hair out (mad, mad, mad)
Yeah, I'm tearing my hair out (mad, mad, mad)
Tearing my hair out
The lyrics in Hope Tala's song "Mad" express feelings of frustration, heartbreak, and anger towards someone who doesn't reciprocate the same level of love and commitment that the singer longs for. The opening lines convey this disappointment quite clearly, with the singer lamenting that they love the other person deeply but that their feelings aren't returned. They blame Cupid- the god of desire, attraction, and love- for not shooting the right arrow, leading to the mismatched emotions.
The second verse talks about how the singer is grappling with their emotions and trying to find solace in different ways. They wait for this person to come back and climb up trees to find peace, reflecting a sense of desperation and longing. The repeated refrain of "tearing my hair out" further emphasizes this frustration as the singer expresses how she feels like she's losing her mind.
In the final verse, the singer begins to rally against the person who has caused her so much pain. The lines "You're making a mess of me/ Like we don't have history" suggest that the two have a past together and that the singer feels like she's been left behind. The reference to "drowning in all your misery" suggests that the other person is caught up in their own pain and is oblivious to how their actions are affecting the singer. Despite this, the singer still longingly asks "don't I deserve sympathy?". However, she quickly acknowledges that "it's just like you to be so glad" and take pride in the power they have over them. The song ultimately ends with the singer continuing to tear her hair out, suggesting that she's still suffocating under the weight of her unrequited love.
