Wasted Love
ROXXI Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Feelings you can't ignore
If now, after all this time
Your running back for more
The day that you left me
Standing out in the cold
Sometimes, you win the game
Baby, sometimes you don't
I'm standing tall
Don't need your wasted love
It's never enough to get you
What you want
Wasted love
Babe, you took our love for granted
Never gave in return
If I were the gas and you the fire
Light the page and watch me burn
I know there are times have changed
Ain't no use in talking
No sense in rearranging
The juries in start walking
I'm standing tall
Don't need your wasted love
It's never enough to get you
What you want
Wasted love
Won't take the fall don't need your wasted love
It's never enough to get you what you want
Wasted love
I gave you my heart
Then you threw it away
I'm standing tall
Don't need your wasted love
It's never enough to get you what you want
Wasted love
Won't take the fall don't need your wasted love
It's never enough to get you what you want
Wasted love
The lyrics to ROXXI's song Wasted Love are a lamentation of a failed relationship. The singer calls out her former lover for leaving her in the cold and taking her love for granted. Despite her continued love for her ex, she declares her independence and stands strong, stating that she does not need their 'wasted love'. The singer acknowledges that there has been a change in the relationship and it is too late to rearrange things. This song is a testimony to the power of self-love, and how one can overcome heartbreak and stand tall.
The lyrics reflect the universal experience of heartbreak and the emotional turmoil that people go through when a relationship fails. The singer's powerful voice and raw emotions relay the pain of rejection and the need to move on from a toxic relationship. The chorus, 'I'm standing tall, don't need your wasted love' shows that the singer has found strength and independence, regardless of the pain she has endured.
