Lillix Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I went away
Perfect things he'd always say
Made me feel like I was worthy
Told me on
The Day we meet
"No more longing for someone,
Ill be there no need to worry"
Months past, you'd ask me 'bout
The day oh I come home, oh please come home
Infatuation with him
Leave me this way, but don't take it away
Why should I spend my time on you?
I know you're gonna make me cry!
I know your kind, make up your mind, cause I can't
Read through the lines, you're making me sigh
Why should I spend my time on you?
As time went by
He gave up asking
Now I'm left to start the chase
Its too late he's losing patients
Its not my fault, its not my choice
What went wrong, cause something changed
Who's to blame when nothings different
I'm back, At last
And now he says he's calling me
Wait 'round 'till 3
No call, Typical
I've been through this before
I can't take anymore
Why should I spend my time on you?
I know you're gonna make me cry!
I know your kind, make up your mind, cause I can't
Read through the lines, you're making me sigh
Why should I spend my time on you?
Invited to his home decide to go
Watching me the whole night
Wait until the times right baby
Speaks to me, starts telling what he sees
"you are more 'girlfriend type', call me when I'm turning 23"
Asshole, asshole, asshole
Why did I waste my time on you?
All you could do was make me cry!
I know your kind make up your mind
Cause I can't
Read through the lines, your making me sigh
Why did I waste my time on you?
The lyrics to Lillix's song Doughnut depict the story of a girl who meets a guy while she's away and falls for him even though she knows he's not good for her. Initially, he says all the right things and makes her feel worthy, but over time he becomes disinterested and distant. The girl is tired of the mixed signals and is losing patience, as the guy can't make up his mind about what he wants in their relationship. He invites her to his home one night and then proceeds to tell her that she's not his "girlfriend type" and to call him when he's turning 23, leaving the girl to feel like she's wasted her time on him.
The chorus of the song represents the girl's frustration and disappointment with the relationship. She knows deep down that he's not good for her, but she can't resist him. She's tired of the mixed signals and wants him to make up his mind about what he wants in their relationship. The lyrics "Why should I spend my time on you? I know you're gonna make me cry!" represents her realization that she deserves better and is tired of being hurt by someone who can't make up their mind.
Overall, the lyrics to Doughnut represent the common struggle of dealing with mixed signals in a relationship and the importance of valuing oneself and not wasting time on people who don't appreciate you.
