Side Effects
The Heydaze Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Start to warn me not to
Take you every day
Told me you were toxic
But I didn't obey

But we both
Everytime you get too close
Break-up sex
Make-up texts

I'm feeling side effects
Inside of you
To let it all go
Inside of you
To let it all go

Mama took one look at you
And said run away
Try to cut you out but
Still you're stuck in my veins

But we both
Everytime you get too close
Break-up sex
Make-up texts

I'm feeling side effects
Inside of you
To let it all go
Inside of you
To let it all go

Poisoned by your love
But I can't get enough
Poisoned by your love
Poisoned by your love
But I can't get enough
Poisoned by your love

I'm feeling side effects
(I'm feeling side effects from you)
Inside of you
To let it all go
(I'm feeling side effects from you)
(I'm feeling side effects from you)
(I'm feeling side effects from you)




Inside of you
To let it all go

Overall Meaning

The Heydaze's song "Side Effects" is an upbeat track that talks about a toxic relationship. In the first verse, the vocalist admits that he was repeatedly warned not to take this person every day as they were described as toxic. However, he didn't follow the warnings and ignored them, which led them into a relationship. He then describes the cycle they are stuck in, with break-up sex and make-up texts. The chorus talks about how he is feeling "side effects" inside of her, wanting to let it all go, but he can’t.


The second verse further highlights the toxicity of the relationship at hand. The vocalist's mother warns him that the person is not appropriate for him, and he tries to cut this person out of his life with no success, admitting they are stuck in his veins. The chorus repeats, and in the bridge, he admits that he is "poisoned by your love" but can’t get enough of it.


Overall, the lyrics highlight the struggle of being in a toxic relationship and how difficult it can be to let go. The cycle of break-up and make-up is emphasized throughout the song, and the chorus repeatedly refers to the "side effects" felt inside the person, unable to let it all go.

Like a lot of people are saying, this is the wrong song. If you listen to No one else it's a different song in the sims since the tune is different. As I know from reading other comments, in the game it says it's no on else but unfortunately it's not.
