Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Now and then, I'm a mess
Please don't hold that against me
I'm a girl with a temper and heat
I know I can be crazy
But I'm not just a fuck-up, I'm the fuck-up you need
I don't hear nobody when you focus on me
Tell me you see
'Cause I know that you've been thinking 'bout it
Don't leave
Shut your mind off and let your heart breathe
You don't need to be worried
I may not ever get my shit together
But ain't nobody gonna love you better
Don't go
What we have here is irreplaceable
No, I won't trade this for nothing
I may not ever get my shit together
But ain't nobody gonna love you better than me, yeah
Love you better than me
In a room full of people with you
I don't see anybody else, no
When we fight, and you're right
So sorry, I make it just so difficult
But I'm not just a fuck-up, I'm the fuck-up you love
We ain't like nobody else, tell me so what
Perfectly imperfect, yeah, baby, that's us
Baby, that's us
'Cause I know that you've been thinking 'bout it
Don't leave
Shut your mind off and let your heart breathe
You don't need to be worried
I may not ever get my shit together
But ain't nobody gonna love you better
Don't go
What we have here is irreplaceable
No, I won't trade this for nothing
I may not ever get my shit together
But ain't nobody gonna love you better
Sitting in the living room
You look at me, I stare at you
I see the doubt, I see the love
I have and it is all for you
Let me wrap myself around you, baby
Let me tell you you are everything, you are
Losing my words, I don't know where to start
But baby, don't leave me
Shut your mind off and let your heart hear me
I won't trade this for nothing
I may not ever get my shit together
But ain't nobody gonna love you better
Don't leave
Shut your mind off and let your heart breathe
You don't need to be worried
I may not ever get my shit together
But ain't nobody gonna love you better
(There ain't nobody gonna love you better than me)
Don't go
What we have here is irreplaceable
No, I won't trade this for nothing
I may not ever get my shit together
But ain't nobody gonna love you better than me, yeah
Love you better than me
The song "Don't Leave" by Snakehips is a plea to a lover to stay despite the imperfections and flaws of the singer. The lyrics capture the essence of vulnerability and insecurity, as the singer reveals her temper, craziness, and difficulty in handling situations. However, the singer also acknowledges her unique love and connection with her partner, claiming that they are "perfectly imperfect." She asks her lover not to leave and to shut off their mind and let their heart breathe to truly explore the depth of their love. This song is an emotional rollercoaster that explores the fear of losing someone special and the attempt to convince them to stay.
The lyrics describe a strong emotional bond between two people despite their imperfections, which makes the song relatable to many. The repetition of the phrase "I may not ever get my shit together, but ain't nobody gonna love you better" emphasizes the depth of love that the singer feels for her partner. The reference to being a "fuck-up" highlights the insecurity and fear of rejection that is present in many relationships. The chorus is a plea for the partner to stay and emphasizes the unique connection that they have, which is "irreplaceable."
