Not You Again
Nicol Sponberg Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I thought I put you behind me
Told you that I never want to see you again
Bite like a viper, venom to my heart
You've been lying and waiting
To tear my peaceful world apart
No, oh no, not you again
Don't you know that you're not invited
But you keep on coming back
No, oh no, not you again
You're the person I used to be
Got to stop you in your tracks
Preying on my weakness
You want to kick me when I'm down
I don't like what I'm seeing
I'm myself when you're around
It?s an all too familiar feeling
These memories from the past
I keep trying to run from you
But I'm getting? nowhere fast
I keep trying to run from you
But I'm getting? nowhere fast
No, oh no, not you again
Don't you know that you're not invited
But you keep on coming back
No, oh no, not you again
You're the person I used to be
Got to stop you in your tracks
[Unverified]
Oh, no, no, not you again
Oh, no, no, not you again
No, no, no, no, not you again
Oh, no, not you again
Don't you come back
Don't you know that you're not invited
But you keep on coming back
No, oh no, not you again
Don't you come back
You're the person I used to be
Got to stop you in your tracks
Oh, no, no, not you again
Don't you come back, now
Oh, no, no, not you again
Don't you come back, no
No, no, no, no, not you again
Don't you come back
Not you again

Line by Line Meaning
There you go, raising your ugly head
You're presenting yourself again, causing pain and discomfort
I thought I put you behind me
I believed I had left you in the past
Told you that I never want to see you again
I voiced my decision of avoiding any contact with you
Bite like a viper, venom to my heart
Your words and actions hurt me deeply, like the sharp fangs of a poisonous snake
You've been lying and waiting
You've been deceiving me and lurking in the shadows
To tear my peaceful world apart
Your intention is to disrupt my tranquility and well-being
Hear me sing
I express myself through music
No, oh no, not you again
I don't want to have anything to do with you, ever
Don't you know that you're not invited
I don't want you to be part of my life anymore
But you keep on coming back
You don't respect my wishes and keep showing up uninvited
You're the person I used to be
When I'm around you, I revert back to my old self
Got to stop you in your tracks
I need to put an end to this cycle and prevent you from harming me again
Preying on my weakness
You exploit my vulnerabilities and use them against me
You want to kick me when I'm down
You take advantage of my difficult moments to hurt me even more
I don't like what I'm seeing
Your behavior and presence make me feel uncomfortable and unhappy
I'm myself when you're around
I lose my sense of identity and become who I used to be when I'm with you
It?s an all too familiar feeling
I'm accustomed to this situation and it's not new to me
These memories from the past
I have recollections of bad experiences with you
But I'm getting nowhere fast
I'm not making any progress in moving on from you
Don't you come back
I don't want you to return
Not you again
I'm disappointed and frustrated to see you once again
