Misstrip Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
look how you treat me so bad-ly
look how you lower me
why does it hurt so much?
what the hell's goin' on,
i feel more scared than i've ever felt
shut your trap, don't go out, don't talk,
what the hell's goin' on, i never thought
that love would hurt this way
what i'am, what i want,
he just doesn't care
good girl, come on, take a ticket ...to death
how was the day before?
i don't remember i was completely crushed
does he notice all the blood on my face
when he hits me
he can't remember he's just enjoying it
good girl, come on, take a ticket ...to death
and he yells a lot, he yells oh, he yells...
The song "MISSTRIP" by Misstrip deals with the theme of an abusive and toxic relationship. The opening line "look how you make me fall down" suggests that the singer is physically being harmed by their partner. The following line "look how you treat me so bad-ly" reinforces this idea, as the singer is being mistreated by their partner. "look how you lower me" could also imply that the singer's partner is lowering their self-esteem and confidence by constantly putting them down.
The chorus "what the hell's goin' on, i feel more scared than i've ever felt" expresses the singer's fear and confusion about their relationship. They feel trapped and powerless, hence the instruction to "shut your trap, don't go out, don't talk, don't reveal your bruises." The singer's partner is controlling them and keeping them isolated from others.
The line "good girl, come on, take a ticket ...to death" is particularly harrowing, as it suggests that the singer's partner sees their abuse as a form of entertainment or pleasure. The final line "and he yells a lot, he yells oh, he yells..." further emphasizes the violent and abusive nature of the relationship.
Overall, "MISSTRIP" is a powerful and disturbing portrayal of domestic violence and its impact on the victims. The lyrics are raw and emotional, making it clear that the singer is suffering immensely.
