Anomaly
Kylie V Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

If I have to ditch you, I've got to admit
That you've got a way of getting under my skin
And I didn't know at the time, but you loved me
When I said the thing that I really regret

When I laid down and let you in my mouth
All I could think about was our first house
It wasn't the prairies but you said it was fine
I don't know if I can change my own mind

I want to build this from the ground up
I want to be forgiven
I want you to see me
We could've been an anomaly

I used to think you could be my best friend
There's knots in my stomach when I picture the end
And when I threw up at your place
And you begged me to stay and we
Talked for nine hours, kept each other awake
And you held me so tight, I know you felt the same
But there's dark clouds approaching with thunder and rain
And when I saw you cry, oh, I've never felt pain like that in my life
You could've been mine

I want to build this from the ground up
I want to be forgiven
I want you to see me
We could've been an anomaly

And I'm sorry I hurt you, I'm sorry I walked out
I'm sorry my fingers taste so good in your mouth
Think this is the last time I'll ever have to shout
Wanted you to hear me, but I'll say it so proud

That I want to build this from the ground up
I want to be forgiven
I want you to see me




We could've been an anomaly
We could be an anomaly

If I have to ditch you, I've got to admit
If I have to leave you behind, I must confess

And I was unaware at that moment, but you had feelings for me


When I said the thing that I really regret
When I uttered the words that I deeply repent


When I laid down and let you in my mouth
When I surrendered and allowed you to consume me


All I could think about was our first house
My thoughts were solely consumed by our initial home


It wasn't the prairies but you said it was fine
It may not have been ideal, but you accepted it


I don't know if I can change my own mind
I am uncertain if I can alter my own perspective


I want to build this from the ground up
I desire to construct this relationship from its very beginning


I want to be forgiven
I yearn for forgiveness


I want you to see me
I crave for you to truly understand me


We could've been an anomaly
We had the potential to be a remarkable exception


I used to think you could be my best friend

There's knots in my stomach when I picture the end
I experience intense anxiety when I imagine our eventual separation


And when I threw up at your place
And when I vomited in your dwelling


And you begged me to stay and we
And you pleaded with me to remain and we


Talked for nine hours, kept each other awake
Engaged in conversations for nine hours, preventing each other from sleeping


And you held me so tight, I know you felt the same
And you embraced me tightly, I understand you shared the same emotions


But there's dark clouds approaching with thunder and rain
However, impending doom looms with stormy weather conditions

And when I witnessed your tears, oh, I experienced the most excruciating pain


You could've been mine
You could have been exclusively mine

And I apologize for causing you pain, for leaving abruptly


I'm sorry my fingers taste so good in your mouth
I apologize for the satisfaction my fingers provide when in contact with your mouth

Believe this will be the final occasion I need to raise my voice


Wanted you to hear me, but I'll say it so proud
I desired for you to truly understand me, but I will express it with confidence

That I aspire to construct this relationship from its very beginning


We could've been an anomaly
We had the potential to be a remarkable exception


We could be an anomaly
We still have the opportunity to be a remarkable exception
