PERSONAL
The Vamps Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Don't take it personal
But personally, I think you'd be better with somebody like me
But worse of all, you don't even see (you don't even see)

I think it's time I let my heart out on the line
I think it's time to say what's playing on my mind
I see you out with him and I say that I'm fine
Happens every time (every time)

I'm sick and tired of playing games
I'm sick and tired of being second place
And I know if I never try
I'll be sick and tired of being sick and tired

Don't take it personal
But personally, I think you'd be better with somebody like me
But worse of all, you don't even see (you don't even see)

Girl, don't take it personal
But personally, I think you'd be better with somebody like me
But worse of all, you don't even see (you don't even see)

Girl, don't take it personal
Personally, I think you'd be better with somebody like me
But worse of all, you don't even see (you don't even see)

Girl, don't take it personal
Personally, I think you'd be better with somebody like me
But worse of all, you don't even see (you don't even see, girl)

You know how much I love it when you call me out
You see it in my eyes, the way they follow you around
'Cause yeah, I like the way you dance
You know I do, yeah I do
'Cause that's just you

I'm sick and tired of being friends
I'm sick and tired of being there
And I know if I never tried
I'll be sick and tired of being sick and tired

Girl, don't take it personal
Personally, I think you'd be better with somebody like me
But worse of all, you don't even see (you don't even see)
Girl, don't take it personal
Personally, I think you'd be better with somebody like me
But worse of all, you don't even see (you don't even see)

So, let's make it personal
Tell me what you like
Let's make it personal
'Cause I know that you want to try to get personal
Tell me what you like
Let's make it personal (personal)

So, don't take it personal
Personally, I think you'd be better with somebody like me
But worse of all, you don't even see (you don't even see)
Don't take it personal
But personally, I think you'd be better with somebody like me
But worse of all, you don't even see (you don't even see)
Girl, don't take it personal




But personally, I think you'd be better with somebody like me
But worse of all, you don't even see (you don't even see)

Overall Meaning

The Vamps's song Personal is about a person who has feelings for someone they consider to be their friend. They confess to the person that they believe they would be a better match for them than their current partner. The chorus, "Don't take it personal, but personally, I think you'd be better with somebody like me," reflects the vulnerability in the person's confession. They don't want to hurt their friend's feelings, but they also want to be honest about their own feelings.


The bridge, "So, let's make it personal, tell me what you like," shows the person's willingness to take the relationship to the next level and explore what a romantic relationship would look like. The song ends with a final plea for the person to consider their feelings and not to take their confession personally.


The lyrics of this song explore the dynamics of friendship and romantic relationships, and the delicate balance that exists between them. It highlights the importance of being honest and vulnerable in our relationships, even if it means risking rejection or hurting someone's feelings.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SEucLZLMkac - you, a soul still unrepentant, you truly want to go there?
Another chance is given to us all, by GOD, everyday, it is called; TOMORROW. A chance that may be the very last, for no tomorrow was never promised to us all. Like life alone was a gift from GOD, so is another day on earth, a gift from GOD. So, let us all have FEAR OF GOD in us, enough to live our lives righteously. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tqzlmU6kWGI
So? are you, a soul, created by GOD after HIS image, willing to go through also the same extreme suffering until DEATH? Do you take your only chance and LOVE GOD BACK. For HE clearly loves us all, that deeply.


Time to seek GOD/TRUTH, for this life is only 120 years, but what comes afterwards is FOREVER.
And no, none goes out from existence, that freedom is not given to us.
We either don`t repent and don´t born again, staying wicked sinners and go and pay for all of our sins in the GOD`S prison; HELL AND THE LAKE OF FIRE.
Or,
We come to REPENTANCE AND BORN AGAIN AND RECEIVE LIFE AND LIFE MORE ABUNDENLLY , AS WE INHERIT THE NEW EARTH AKA PARADISE.

There were giants in the days of NOAH and so are there giants in the last days aka today.
These 3 are giants, created by lucifer and not by GOD. Giants are hybrid beings (angels + human) - they are not humans. Therefore they can´t go to heaven nor be redeemed, for salvation is only for humans and not for hybrid beings.

Please, start reading BIBLE (KJV) and be redeemed for good.

All the actors in that series, all of them look;
- robotic, cloned,
- trans gendered,
- animal hybrid.
Do you, watcher also notice it?
