Break Up a Bit
Peg Parnevik Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

You say that you know me
No-no-no-no you don't
You say that you love me
Shu-shu-shut your mouth
No, I used to think you were holy
But now I, now I know

High on all the ways you move

Your antics got me sober
I've been feeling something, baby
Since we said it's over

We've been up here before
Slamming cars, slamming doors
Tangled up on the floor
I know I cannot let you go
We've been up here before
Starting fights, starting wars
And I still come back for more
I know I cannot let you go

We've been up here before
I know, I know I cannot let you go
We've been up here before
I know, I know I cannot let you go
And we break, break up a bit
Falling back then break, break up a bit

Call me up at a party
Say, say you're just a friend
But you're not even holy
Nah, nah, we're more than that
No, I used to think we were rollin'
Used to think we were golden

High on all the ways you move
Your antics got me sober
I've been feeling something, baby
Since we said it's over

We've been up here before
Slamming cars, slamming doors
Tangled up on the floor
I know I cannot let you go
We've been up here before
Starting fights, starting wars
And I still come back for more
I know I cannot let you go

We've been up here before
I know, I know I cannot let you go
We've been up here before
I know, I know I cannot let you go
And we break, break up a bit
Falling back then break, break up a bit
We break, break up a bit
Falling back then break, break up a bit

We break up a bit
We break, break up a bit
Oh, we break up a bit
Falling back then break, break up a bit

We've been up here before
Slamming cars, slamming doors
Tangled up on the floor
I know I cannot let you go (I can't let you go)
We've been up here before
Starting fights, starting wars (starting up a war)
And I still come back for more
I know I cannot let you go (no)

And we break, break up a bit
Falling back then break, break up a bit
And we've been up here before
Starting fights, starting wars

And I still come back for more
I know I cannot let you go

Overall Meaning

In "Break Up a Bit," Peg Parnevik's lyrics focus on the complexity of breaking up with someone who you know is not good for you. She rebuffs her ex's claims that he loves her and knows her well, suggesting that they were never "golden" or "holy" and that he needs to "shut [his] mouth." Despite this, she acknowledges that his "antics got [her] sober," indicating that she was once addicted to the relationship, and that she still feels something for him even though they've broken up.

The chorus of the song features an interesting play on words, with the phrase "break up a bit" functioning both as a reference to their relationship breaking apart and as a command to "break up" their toxic patterns of behavior. Peg sings about how they've "been up here before," "slamming cars, slamming doors," and "starting fights, starting wars," signaling that this relationship dynamic is familiar to both of them. Although she knows that she "cannot let [him] go," she also recognizes that they need to change something to move forward, hence the repetition of the chorus.

Overall, the song's lyrics suggest that relationships are complex and that sometimes it's hard to let go of someone even when you know you should. Peg Parnevik's use of metaphors and wordplay adds an extra layer of meaning to the song, making it both sonically and thematically engaging.

Line by Line Meaning

You say that you know me
You claim to understand me completely

No-no-no-no you don't
But you really have no idea

You say that you love me
You express strong affection for me

Shu-shu-shut your mouth
But you should probably keep quiet

No, I used to think you were holy
I used to believe that you were perfect

But now I, now I know
But now I realize that is not true

High on all the ways you move
I am enamored with the way you behave

Your antics got me sober
But they have also brought me back to reality

I've been feeling something, baby
I have been experiencing a certain feeling

Since we said it's over
Ever since we ended things between us

We've been up here before
We have already been in this same situation

Slamming cars, slamming doors
Back then, we were reckless and violent towards each other

Tangled up on the floor
We were physically intertwined and out of control

I know I cannot let you go
Despite everything, I feel unable to move on from you

Starting fights, starting wars
We have also been confrontational and belligerent

And I still come back for more
However, I am still drawn to you

And we break, break up a bit
Even though we are no longer together, we still have moments where we fight and argue

Falling back then break, break up a bit
We keep going back and forth, never fully moving on from each other

Call me up at a party
You contact me while you're out having fun

Say, say you're just a friend
But you claim that we are just friends

But you're not even holy
But deep down, you are not even close to perfect

Nah, nah, we're more than that
Actually, we are more than just friends

No, I used to think we were rollin'
I used to believe that everything was perfect between us

Used to think we were golden
I used to believe that we had a bright future together

And we break up a bit
But now, we still have moments where we fall apart

We break up a bit
Our relationship is in a constant state of breaking down

Oh, we break up a bit
We have frequent moments of conflict and disagreement
