So Sick
Ne-Yo feat. 6r Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Mm, mm, yeah
Do do do do do do do do, oh yeah

Gotta change my answering machine, now that I'm alone
'Cause right now it says that "We can't come to the phone"
And I know it makes no sense, 'cause you walked out the door
But it's the only way I hear your voice anymore
(It's ridiculous)
It's been months and for some reason I just
(Can't get over us)
And I'm stronger than this, yeah

(Enough is enough)
No more walking round with my head down (yeah)
I'm so over being blue, crying over you

And I'm so sick of love songs, so tired of tears
So done with wishing you were still here
Said I'm so sick of love songs, so sad and slow
So why can't I turn off the radio?

Gotta fix that calendar I have that's marked July 15th
Because since there's no more you, there's no more anniversary
I'm so fed up with my thoughts of you and your memory
And now every song reminds me of what used to be

That's the reason I'm
So sick of love songs, so tired of tears
So done with wishing you were still here
Said I'm so sick of love songs, so sad and slow
So why can't I turn off the radio? Oh-oh-oh

(Leave me alone)
Leave me alone
(Stupid love songs)
Hey, don't make me think about her smile
Or having my first child
I'm letting go
Turning off the radio

'Cause I'm so sick of love songs (hey), so tired of tears (so tired of tears)
So done with wishing (oh) she was still here
Said I'm so sick of love songs, so sad and slow (ooh-oh)
So why can't I turn off the radio? (Why can't I turn off the radio?)

Said I'm so sick of love songs, so tired of tears (so tired of tears, yeah)
So done with wishing she was still here
Said I'm so sick of love songs, so sad and slow (hey)
Why can't I turn off the radio? (Why can't I turn off the radio?)

And I'm so sick of love songs, so tired of tears (I'm so sick of love songs)
So done with wishing you were still here (so done and I'm so sick of love songs)
Said I'm so sick of love songs, so sad and slow (so done and I'm so sick of love songs)
Why can't I turn off the radio? (hey)




(Why can't I turn off the radio?)
Why can't I turn off the radio?

Overall Meaning

The song "So Sick" by Ne-Yo feat. 6r's is a heartbreak anthem about the struggle of moving on from a past relationship. The opening lyrics describe the singer's need to change their answering machine, as the current message implies that they are still with their ex-partner. This shows that the singer is struggling with moving on and constantly thinks about their ex-partner.


The lyrics also mention the singer's frustration with constantly being reminded of their past relationship, shown by the calendar marked with their anniversary and every song reminding them of their ex-partner. Despite their attempts to move on, the singer finds themselves still feeling sad and can't help but think about their ex-partner. This is shown through the line "It's been months and for some reason I just can't get over us, and I'm stronger than this, yeah".


The chorus repeats the lines "I'm so sick of love songs, so tired of tears, so done with wishing you were still here, so why can't I turn off the radio?" This shows the frustration and almost desperation that the singer feels towards their inability to move on from their previous relationship. They are tired of constantly being reminded about their pain and heartbreak and want to move on but can't seem to do so.

Lyrics:
Mmmh, mmmh, Yeah (doo, doo, dooo, doo)
Gotta change my answering machine
Now that I'm alone
'Cause right now, it says that we
Can't come to the phone
And I know it makes no sense
'Cause you walked out the door
But it's the only way I hear your voice anymore

It's ridiculous
It's been months
And for some reason I just
Can't get over us
And I'm stronger than this, yeah
Enough is enough
No more walkin' round
With my head down
I'm so over being blue
Cryin' over you

And I'm so sick of love songs
So tired of tears
So done with wishing
You were still here
Said, I'm so sick of love songs
So sad and slow
So why can't I turn off the radio?

Gotta fix that calendar I have
That's marked July 15th
Because since there's no more you
There's no more anniversary
I'm so fed up with my thoughts of you

And your memory
And how every song reminds me
Of what used to be
That's the reason I'm so sick of love songs
So tired of tears
So done with wishing
She was still here

Said, I'm so sick of love songs
So sad and slow
Why can't I turn off the radio?
Why can't I turn off the radio?
Why can't I turn off the radio?
