drunk text me
Lexi Jayde Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Said you never liked big crowds
Acting like you like them now
Without me
'Cause you're with your friends, all proud
At some shitty bar downtown
Do you taste me on her mouth
Or just whiskey?
Hooking up instead of healing
Wanna know just what you're feeling now
What are you feeling now?
I want you to drunk text me
Saying you still need me
Tell me I'm not like her
I made you happier
I want you to drunk text me
Just empty it all out, please
Tell me you fucked this up
Tell me you're still in love with me
Wondering if you regret
All the shit you never said
That you slept with her instead
Like we never mattered
Or do you even care at all
After all the pain you caused?
Do you know that I'd still pick the phone up
If you called?
I want you to drunk text me
Saying that you're sorry
Tell me you fucked this up
Tell me you're still in love
I want you to drunk text me
Saying you still need me
Tell me I'm not like her
I made you happier
'Cause I'm no closer to closure
Wish you weren't sober
We're over, but I'm not over it
I wish you would drunk text me
Just empty it all out, please
Tell me you fucked this up
Tell me you're still in love with me
I hate that I still want you
I don't want to, but I want you
Look what you've done to me
I hate that I still miss you
I don't want to, but I love you
So why don't you drunk text me?
Saying you still need me
Tell me I'm not like her
I made you happier ('cause I'm no closer to closure)
Tell me you fucked this up (wish you weren't sober)
Tell me you're still in love (we're over, but I'm not over it)
'Cause I'm not over it
I wish you would drunk text me
Just empty it all out, please
Tell me you fucked this up
'Cause I think I'm still in love
The lyrics to Lexi Jayde's song "Drunk Text Me" narrate the singer's request for her former lover to inebriate himself and text her. The song is a pleasantry for the ex-lover to express remorse for their indiscretions and offer a chance for reconciliation. The lyrics deal with complex issues like heartbreak, betrayal, and regret.
Throughout the song, the singer accuses her former lover of doing everything he swore never to do. The ex-lover is hanging out with big crowds, including the woman with whom he cheated. The singer wants him to tell her that he messed up and that he is still in love with her.
The chorus is a culmination of the singer's longing desire for her former lover to contact her. She yearns for him to apologize and tell her that he still loves her. The two lines "Tell me you're still in love with me... 'Cause I'm not over it" encapsulate the central theme of Lexi Jayde's song, a desire for emotional closure.
Line by Line Meaning
Shouldn't you be sad right now
I expected you to be feeling down about our breakup
Said you never liked big crowds
You used to tell me that you didn't like being in large groups of people
Acting like you like them now
But now you seem to be enjoying yourself without me
Without me
Which makes me wonder if I ever really mattered to you
'Cause you're with your friends, all proud
You're out with your friends and seem to be happy without me
At some shitty bar downtown
You're at some low-quality bar in the city
Do you taste me on her mouth
I wonder if you still think about me when you're kissing her
Or just whiskey?
Or if you're just trying to forget me with alcohol
Hooking up instead of healing
Instead of taking time to heal after our breakup, you're sleeping around
Wanna know just what you're feeling now
I want to know how you're really feeling without any walls up
What are you feeling now?
What emotions are you experiencing at this moment?
I want you to drunk text me
I want you to text me when you're drunk and not thinking straight
Saying you still need me
And confess that you still need me in your life
Tell me I'm not like her
Assure me that I'm not like the other girls you've been with
I made you happier
And remind me that you were happier with me
Just empty it all out, please
I want you to tell me everything on your mind, no matter how messy
Tell me you fucked this up
Admit that you messed up and regret losing me
Tell me you're still in love with me
And that you still love me deeply
Wondering if you regret
I wonder if you regret your decisions and actions
All the shit you never said
And if there were things left unsaid in our relationship
That you slept with her instead
Especially if you chose to be with someone else instead of me
Like we never mattered
Which makes me feel like our relationship didn't matter to you
Oh, do you even care at all
I'm starting to doubt whether you ever truly cared for me
After all the pain you caused?
Especially considering the emotional pain you caused me
Do you know that I'd still pick the phone up
But despite it all, I'm still willing to answer your call
If you called?
If you ever decided to reach out to me
I hate that I still want you
I hate that I can't get over you and still have feelings for you
I don't want to, but I want you
Even though I know I shouldn't want you, I still do
Look what you've done to me
You've caused me a lot of emotional turmoil and pain
I hate that I still miss you
I can't help but miss you, even though I shouldn't
I don't want to, but I love you
I never wanted to still have feelings for you, but I do
So why don't you drunk text me?
So why don't you reach out to me when you're drunk and vulnerable?
I think I'm still in love
I'm starting to realize that I still love you
