Flatline
Lately you've been busy, wondering if you miss me
Why did you go against me? I just wanna know
How come you act so different?
All the love I'm giving
Don't act like you don't know
I was out there on the road
Life out of control
She became a victim to my busy schedule
And I know that it's not fair
That don't mean that I don't care
This one's dedicated to the girl out there
Girl you always catch me at the bad time
When I know you probably think it's a lie
I know I told you last time was the last time
How could you pull the plug and let me flatline?
Flatline [x2]
How could you pull the plug and let me flatline?
Cause when I hit you, you don't even reply
How could you pull the plug and let me flatline?
Not breathing, what is it I'm not seeing
Said she's leaving, damn I can't believe it
It's like my heart's bleeding knowing that you don't need me
Shut my heart down, now I don't know what imma do now
I was out there on the road
Life out of control
She became a victim to my busy schedule
And I know that it's not fair
That don't mean that I don't care
This one's dedicated to the girl out there
Girl you always catch me at the bad time
When I know you probably think it's a lie
I know I told you last time was the last time
How could you pull the plug and let me flatline?
Flatline [x2]
How could you pull the plug and let me flatline?
Cause when I hit you, you don't even reply
How could you pull the plug and let me flatline?
Girl you always catch me at the bad time [x2]
I know I told you last time was the last time [x2]
How could you pull the plug and let me flatline? (Flatline)
Girl you always catch me at the bad time
When I know you probably think it's a lie
I know I told you last time was the last time
How could you pull the plug and let me flatline?

The song "Flatline" by Justin Bieber is a heart-wrenching ballad about trying to reconcile with a former lover after realizing the error of his ways. Bieber sings about being on the road and not being able to give his full attention to his girlfriend, causing her to leave him. He admits that he knows it's unfair but his busy schedule took over his life. He pleads with her to talk to him and listen to all of the love he has to give, and he cannot comprehend why she pulled the plug and let him flatline. Bieber is tormented by the fact that she will not respond to his calls and texts, and he feels like his heart is bleeding knowing that she does not need him in her life anymore.
Throughout the song, Bieber's emotions are palpable as he sings about the pain and the hurt he is going through because of his mistakes. The lyrics show Bieber's vulnerability and remorse, making the song relatable to anyone who has lost a loved one due to their own shortcomings. Bieber's powerful vocals, combined with the somber melody and the electronic beats, make for a captivating and hauntingly beautiful song.

Lately you've been busy, wondering if you miss me
I've noticed that you've been occupied and I'm curious if you think about me
Why did you go against me? I just wanna know
I'm unsure why you've turned away from me and I'm seeking to understand
How come you act so different?
I'm confused about the change in your behavior towards me
Talk to me I'll listen
Please communicate with me openly and honestly
All the love I'm giving, don't act like you don't know
I've been expressing my affection towards you and I hope you recognize my efforts
How could you pull the plug and let me flatline?
I feel like you have abruptly ended our connection, leaving me feeling lost and in despair
I was out there on the road, life out of control
My life has been incredibly chaotic and overwhelming due to my busy schedule and frequent traveling
She became a victim to my busy schedule
The girl in my life has been negatively impacted by my lack of availability and focus on my career
And I know that it's not fair, that don't mean that I don't care
I understand that it's unjust to treat someone poorly due to my lifestyle, but that doesn't mean I don't have feelings and concern for her
This one's dedicated to the girl out there
This song is a tribute to the girl who has been affected by my actions
Cause when I hit you, you don't even reply
It feels like you are not even acknowledging me when I try to communicate with you
Not breathing, what is it I'm not seeing
I feel like I am suffocating and struggling to understand what I'm missing or doing wrong
Said she's leaving, damn I can't believe it
I've been informed that she intends to end our relationship, and it's difficult for me to accept
It's like my heart's bleeding knowing that you don't need me
The realization that she doesn't require my presence or love anymore is excruciatingly painful
Shut my heart down, now I don't know what imma do now
My emotional detachment from the situation has left me feeling lost and uncertain of how to move forward
Girl you always catch me at the bad time
It seems like you always come to me when I am not in a good place emotionally or mentally
I know I told you last time was the last time
I have made promises to change and improve the situation in the past, but have not followed through
