The Cure
Little Mix Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I lost my faith, made my mistakes
Gonna find a way to make it easy
I'll be better on my own, believe me
Pain, I hold back, can't live like that
Yeah, I made my peace with all of the sorrow
And now I'm livin' for tomorrow

I'm a girl with a new face, and a life that's been changed
You know, you know, you know?

I was a little bit lost, but I'm not anymore
I was a little bit hurt, but I'm not anymore
I was a little left out, but I'm not anymore
'Cause the tears fell down, but they don't anymore
I was a little messed up, but I'm not anymore
I was a little locked out, but I'm not anymore
I was a little far gone, but I'm not anymore
Yeah, it's alright now, baby, I got the cure

Oh, oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh, oh
Yeah, it's alright now, baby, I got the cure

Now it's me and myself, yeah, yeah, yeah, don't need no one else
This happiness was always inside me
But Lord, it took a minute to find me
And this freedom I found is worth a million o' you now
And I'm puttin' all my troubles behind me
I only need my heart to guide me

I'm a girl with a new face, and a life that's been changed
You know, you know, you know? (you know, know, know, know)

I was a little bit lost, but I'm not anymore (a little bit lost)
I was a little bit hurt, but I'm not anymore (ooh woah, oh, no-no-no)
I was a little left out, but I'm not anymore
'Cause the tears fell down, but they don't anymore
I was a little messed up, but I'm not anymore
I was a little locked out, but I'm not anymore
I was a little far gone, but I'm not anymore
Yeah, it's alright now, baby, I got the cure

I was a little bit hurt, but I'm not anymore
I was a little left out, but I'm not anymore (little bit, oh)
'Cause the tears fell down, but they don't anymore (tears fell down now)
I was a little messed up, but I'm not anymore (tears fell down now)

As a socially isolated,bullied,abused,mocked,disabled,unemployed ethnic British female in mid twenties, I shouldn't really be praising those who are in a whole league opposite to me ie mega successful ladies like LM. I live in a council flat with literally nothing to celbrate other than be grateful for my decent ish health and a roof voer head but I am less than scraping by. A very bad place and not soemthign I would wish upon anyone. I went to school. I sat my exams. I went to colelge. But still ended up here.

However I have to say I am grown fond to this song. Very simple but effective lyrics and melodies. I bet they must be super proud having released this. Very cool song. Empowering. I have followed and watched these beautiful angels blossom since the X Factor. Was it SiCo who put them together or God? Their harmonies were in sync even before all the hit singles!

I love how they are using their platform! I am really suffering , especially as I have no family, I have no friends, living in a council flat with literally zero social support
I don't usually rave about pop culture but these girls are super adaptable and likeable and I'm saying that having only heard and seen them through screens not in person. I actually find joy in complimenting and 'fangirling' over their versatile beauty, talent, intelligence

I shouldn't really be praising females who are mega blessed and successful and I should be jealous but I still find them admirable and think they are British diamonds in our world.
I look at them and other and crave friendship and all the other things that help to define their success. Yes they all work hard individually
Merry Christmas everyone. Can I just please remind you all to spare a though for the less fortunate and never take for granted blessings.
