Steven A. Clark Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
But I never really cared
Can't say I missed you 'cause
I was never really there
I was lying every time
Each moment that we shared
And yeah the sex was good but
Your head I couldn't bear
So I try to take it slow
But you lied about your boyfriend
And you're such a ho and a little bit crazy
Just thought I'd let you know
Then what was I thinking? One
Thing you gotta know
Did I hurt you? Did I hurt you?
Did I hurt you? Did I hurt you?
Oooh, oooh, huh huh, huh huh did I hurt you?
Oooh, oooh, huh huh, huh huh
'Cause you hurt me too
Wouldn't buy you a drink if you
Were standing by the bar
And you couldn't get the aux cord if
You were riding in my car
And I don't know what it is
But you are who you are
Then what was I thinking? You're
The craziest by far
And thank God we didn't have kids with
All the freaky shit we did
'Cause if anybody's asking
Never know what you want
Man somethings got to give
What I do to deserve this? Man
Here we go again
Did I hurt you? Did I hurt you?
Did I hurt you? Did I hurt you?
Oooh, oooh, huh huh, huh huh did I hurt you?
Oooh, oooh, huh huh, huh huh
'Cause you hurt me too
The key to everything is sharing
You acting like that I'm not caring
The pain in your eyes, I'm staring
I could fuck another bitch and
Tell you I ran errands
Scumbag, feeling like a dumbass
'Cause I got another bitch that
Make me cum fast
Thirty minutes in the pussy but it never last
I just want thirty years
And a everlasting relationship
I know you can't take this shit in
If I ever let my ego trip in battleship
Heartbreak kiddo, weeping willow
I don't wanna be the one to
Come in with a pillow
In my speakerbox you can hear the love below
Now you got a nigga feeling below zero
The lyrics of "Did I Hurt U" by Steven A. Clark delve into the complexities of a tumultuous and seemingly toxic relationship, where both parties have caused pain to each other. The singer starts by confessing that despite their partner expressing love for them, they never truly reciprocated those feelings. The detachment is evident in lines like "I never really cared" and "I was never really there", suggesting a lack of emotional investment in the relationship. The singer admits to lying and faking emotions during their time together, revealing a sense of insincerity and detachment.
The song touches upon the physical aspect of the relationship as well, with the mention of good sex but an inability to connect on a deeper level. This is highlighted by the reference to not being able to bear their partner's thoughts, indicating a disconnect beyond the physical realm. The line "you're a little bit crazy" could be interpreted as a dismissal of the partner's emotional struggles or mental health issues, showing a lack of empathy and understanding from the singer's side. This lack of genuine care and concern is further emphasized by the derogatory terms used to describe the partner.
The chorus poses the question "Did I hurt you?" repeatedly, showing a hint of self-awareness or guilt from the singer's perspective. Despite acknowledging the pain they may have caused, there is also a lingering sense of defensiveness or justification for their actions. The mention of not buying a drink or sharing music in more casual settings adds to the portrayal of a relationship where resentment and disdain have taken root. The singer reflects on the chaotic nature of the relationship, recognizing the partner's unpredictable behavior and the myriad of issues that arose between them.
In the latter part of the song, there is a shift towards introspection as the singer questions their behavior and expresses a desire for a deeper connection and a lasting relationship. However, their admission of engaging with someone else and the subsequent reflection of feeling empty or dissatisfied indicate a sense of internal conflict and a struggle to find true fulfillment. The image of a "heartbreak kiddo" and a "weeping willow" evoke a sense of vulnerability and emotional turmoil. The lyrics conclude with a poignant reflection on feeling lost and desolate, hinting at the emotional toll of failed relationships and the yearning for something more meaningful.

You told me you loved me
You expressed your feelings for me
But I never really cared
However, I did not truly value those feelings
Can't say I missed you 'cause
I cannot say I longed for you because
I was never really there
I was emotionally absent
I was lying every time
I was dishonest on numerous occasions
Each moment that we shared
During the times we spent together
And yeah the sex was good but
Although the physical intimacy was satisfying
Your head I couldn't bear
I struggled with your mental state
And you're a little bit crazy
You possess some irrational tendencies
So I try to take it slow
I attempt to proceed with caution
But you lied about your boyfriend
However, you were deceitful about your partner
And you're such a ho and a little bit crazy
You exhibit promiscuous behavior and some irrationality
Just thought I'd let you know
I wanted to make you aware of this
Then what was I thinking? One
I question my judgment in this situation
Thing you gotta know
It is important for you to understand
Did I hurt you? Did I hurt you?
Was I the cause of your pain?
Wouldn't buy you a drink if you
I would not even offer to buy you a drink if you
Were standing by the bar
Were present at the bar
And you couldn't get the aux cord if
You would not have control of the music if
You were riding in my car
You were a passenger in my vehicle
And I don't know what it is
I am unsure of the reason
But you are who you are
You remain true to your nature
The key to everything is sharing
The foundation of all relationships is mutual sharing
You acting like that I'm not caring
You are portraying as if I do not care
The pain in your eyes, I'm staring
I am observing the hurt in your eyes
Scumbag, feeling like a dumbass
I feel like a despicable fool
Cause I got another bitch that
Because I am involved with another woman who
Make me cum fast
Satisfies me quickly sexually
Heartbreak kiddo, weeping willow
Feeling heartbroken, like a crying willow tree
I don't wanna be the one to
I do not wish to be the individual who
Come in with a pillow
Provides comfort in times of distress
Now you got a nigga feeling below zero
Now I feel extremely cold and alone
