Clarity
Maeta Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

You take a little bit of doin' too much
You ain't really doin' enough
Why you run away, you're done talkin' to me?
You say it's over, then come start it with me
Say what it is 'cause I need clarity
This confusion so unfair to me
Bad for me
Lately we ain't gettin' along
(Back and forth, we go)
Lately we ain't gettin' along
(Gets worse, we were out the door)
We ain't gettin' along




Lately we ain't gettin' along (we ain't gettin' along)
Lately we ain't gettin'-
