Stuck On You
Mars Argo Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I'm your queen
Come with me
I'm a thief
Float with me
Lie to me
Make me think
You say I'm young
You say I'm dumb
You say it's true
But I'm stuck on you
I think you want to see me numb
It's nothing new
But I'm stuck on you
I see you over me
In my dreams
I'm asleep
Make me think
I'm your queen
Lie to me
I'm a thief
You say I'm young
You say I'm dumb
You say it's true
But I'm stuck on you
I think you want to see me numb
It's nothing new
But I'm stuck on you
And I never had the words to say
That I want you back
And I never had the nerve to say
That I want you back
The lyrics to Mars Argo's song "Stuck on You" depict the complex emotions that arise in a toxic and manipulative relationship. In the first verse, the singer is pleading for her partner to recognize her as "your queen" and join her in their bond, but also admitting that she is a thief for taking the love she desires. The second verse reflects on the partner's demeaning statements towards the singer, referring to her as young and dumb, yet acknowledging the hold they have over her. The chorus repeats that sentiment, noting the partner's desire to see the singer numb but emphasizing the singer's inability to resist their magnetic pull. The bridge provides insight into the shattered connection between the two, stating that the singer never had the courage to tell their partner they wanted them back.
Overall, the lyrics paint a vivid picture of a relationship fraught with power imbalances, emotional manipulation, and a love that is both intoxicating and destructive. The singer portrays herself as trapped and unable to resist the toxic attraction she feels for her partner, despite their mistreatment.

Honestly, there is just something about this that is nostalgic and brings back bittersweet memories. I'm not sure what it is about this song that is so magical, but this song is truly beautiful in it's own, strange way.
