Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I'm not your love monkey so be taking back all the lies you sold
What did you want me to be
It's just too much now
So tell me so tell me so tell me one two three four
So what's your evil attitude
When you got me spending my time pleasing you
Tell me tell me, why you wanna bring me down?
Is that too much to give a damn
When I'm giving you one hundred and ten
Don't blink 'cause I won't be around
Tell me, so tell me why you wanna bring me down
Now your transmission is on the negative
You're on a losing streak
This information is getting ordinary and you're losing me
What's with your hostility when the lie's on me?
Well you're down to the last chance
So tell me so tell me uno dos tres cuatro
So what's your evil attitude
When you got me spending my time pleasing you
Why must you keep me underground
Tell me tell me, why you wanna bring me down?
Is that too much to give a damn
When I'm giving you one hundred and ten
Don't blink 'cause I won't be around
Tell me, so tell me why you wanna bring me down
Was it all just a waste of time
I don't wanna spend my whole life thinking bout it
Baby this is where I draw the line, I think I'm done
So what's your evil attitude
When you got me spending my time pleasing you
Why must you keep me underground
Tell me tell me, why you wanna bring me down?
Is that too much to give a damn
When I'm giving you one hundred and ten
Don't blink 'cause I won't be around
Tell me, so tell me why you wanna bring me down
Why you wanna bring me down
Tell me, tell me why you wanna bring me down
Why you wanna bring me down
Why you, why you, why you wanna bring me down
The lyrics to Kelly Clarkson's song "Whyyawannabringmedown" speak of a toxic relationship in which one partner is constantly belittling and undermining the other. The singer wonders what her partner wants her to be, as she feels she has given everything she can to the relationship. She asks why her partner keeps her "underground" and brings her down, and questions the motives behind their "evil attitude". The song ends with the singer drawing the line and deciding she is done with the relationship.
In the first verse, the lyrics warn that the situation could become critical if it goes any deeper, indicating that the toxic relationship dynamic is escalating. In the chorus, the singer asks why her partner wants to bring her down and keep her hidden away, despite her efforts to please them.
The second verse reveals that the partner's negative attitude is causing the relationship to deteriorate, but they are blaming the singer for it. The lyrics suggest that the partner has only one more chance to fix things before the singer walks away for good. The final verse expresses the singer's frustration and disappointment, as she declares that she does not want to waste any more of her life on this relationship.

on Since U Been Gone
This song resonates with me the most right now since as recent as last Sunday, I was set free from a relationship with a man like this.
Here's the thing, we started out friends
It was cool but IT WAS ALL PRETEND [on HIS part]
HOW COME I'D NEVER HEAR YOU SAY
"I just wanna be with you"?
Guess YOU never felt that way [(But HE expected me to feel that way)]
Such an amazing song!

We're walking on the ocean, turning water into wine
