Set Me Free
Jordyn Taylor Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Verse 1:
I just can't take no more
I'm done with waiting in line
And you don't even seem to know if I breathe
I'm over crying all the time
I'm ready to move on
Cause it's clear that you don't care about me
Pre-Chorus:
Put your hands up
Tonight, because I'm walking away,
I'm walking away
Put your hands up
Tonight, because it's my turn to say,
my turn to say

Chorus:
All you gotta do is set me free, whoa
So in love but I just can't take no more
Boy I don't want you to mess with me, whoa
You're up and down,
and I'm the one that's hurting
Why am I so obsessed, when you don't even care?
I hate you,
but I need you to set me free this time
I wanna dance tonight
Oh (Repeat)

Verse 2:
So tired of telephone calls,
I can't pretend it's alright
Either you're in or you are out, it's not fair
I can't keep waiting right here
I can't keep standing all night
So set me free if you just really don't care

Pre-Chorus

Chorus

Bridge:
I know that you'll miss me once I'm gone
and I'm not coming back
So this is your last chance to tell me,
or set me free yeah





Chorus

Her songs are all good, I wonder why she never hit the charts. Guess people like to go for mainstream trash songs.
