Rebound
Julian Moon Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
But no you are not over her yet
And no matter how many times you begged,
She moved on
So you lean a little closer to me
compliment and call me cutie
Yes I know you only want me to prove your low self-esteem wrong
That you'll never love me
Well I'm quite aware
I'm just a rebound
We're gonna get down
So you can forget
I'm just a rebound
Stop calling me your girlfriend
Stop Stop Stop
I'm not your one true love the stars above
Or the perfect girl you are dreaming of
I know I'm never gonna mean that much to you
And it's really getting on my nerves
when you say you never mention her
like I don't know you enough to see the real truth
That you are not sorry that you don't care
That you'll never love me
Well I'm quite aware
I'm just a rebound
We're gonna get down
So you can forge
I'm just a rebound
Stop calling me your girlfriend
Sure I've liked you since we first met
sure I'd like to be more than this
But I am not her
And yeah, that hurts
But don't check in or take me out
Don't buy me things or snuggle after
when you are all after is still cool with me
I'll be your rebound
We're gonna get down
So you can forget
I'm just a rebound
Stop calling me your girlfriend
I'm just a rebound
I'm just a rebound
I'm just a rebound
Stop calling me your girlfriend
The song "Rebound" by Julian Moon is about a girl who is aware that the guy she is seeing is using her as a rebound, and she is frustrated with the situation. The girl knows that the guy is not over his previous relationship, and no matter how much he begs or tries, his ex-girlfriend has already moved on. Despite this, he leans in closer to the girl, gives her compliments and calls her 'cutie', but the girl knows that he only wants her to prove his low self-esteem wrong.
The chorus of the song, "Hey don't be sorry that you don't care, that you'll never love me, Well I'm quite aware, I'm just a rebound, We're gonna get down, So you can forget, I'm just a rebound, Stop calling me your girlfriend" expresses the girl's frustration and realization that she is only a temporary filler for the guy until he gets over his ex. She says that she knows that she will never be his 'one true love' or the 'perfect girl' he dreams of, which is getting on her nerves. She wants him to stop calling her his girlfriend and stop trying to make her feel special, knowing that their relationship is just temporary.

So you are out of a relationship
You just got out of a relationship
But no you are not over her yet
But you are still not over your ex
And no matter how many times you begged,
No matter how many times you begged her to come back,
She moved on
She moved on and left you behind
So you lean a little closer to me
So you move in closer to me
compliment and call me cutie
You flatter me and call me cute
Yes I know you only want me to prove your low self-esteem wrong
I know you're only using me to boost your self-esteem
Hey don't be sorry that you don't care
Don't apologize for not caring about me
That you'll never love me
That you'll never fall in love with me
Well I'm quite aware
I'm fully aware of that fact
I'm just a rebound
I'm just a rebound to help you forget your ex
We're gonna get down
We're going to be intimate
So you can forget
So you can forget about your ex
Stop calling me your girlfriend
Stop referring to me as your girlfriend
I'm not your one true love the stars above
I'm not your one true love like you dream of
Or the perfect girl you are dreaming of
Or the ideal girl you have in mind
I know I'm never gonna mean that much to you
I know I'll never mean as much to you as your ex did
And it's really getting on my nerves
And it's starting to annoy me
when you say you never mention her
When you insist that you never talk about her
like I don't know you enough to see the real truth
As if I don't know you well enough to see through your lies
I'm just a rebound
I'm just a rebound to help you move on
Sure I've liked you since we first met
I've liked you since the beginning
sure I'd like to be more than this
And I would like to be more than just a rebound
But I am not her
But I am not your ex
And yeah, that hurts
And that's painful for me
But don't check in or take me out
But don't try to keep in touch or take me out on dates
Don't buy me things or snuggle after
Don't try to buy my affection or cuddle with me afterwards
when you are all after is still cool with me
When all you want is casual and that's fine with me
