The lyrics of Varsity's song "Downtown" seem to describe a toxic relationship that is based on lies, deception, and emotional manipulation, where one person is using the other for their own benefit, without really caring about their feelings or needs. The singer is addressing their partner and telling them that they know they are just wasting their time with him or her, keeping them around as a way to satisfy their own ego or desires. They also recognize that their partner is lying to them, probably to keep them under control or to avoid confrontations.
The chorus of the song reveals the singer's intention to break free from this toxic situation and to move on from their partner, even though they still have feelings for them. They don't want to keep playing this game of lies and deceit, and they don't want to be treated as a disposable object that can be used and discarded at will. They acknowledge their own self-worth and refuse to be just a typewriter that prints whatever their partner wants them to say or do.
Overall, "Downtown" is a powerful song that speaks to anyone who has ever been in a relationship where their feelings were not reciprocated, where they were kept around as a temporary distraction, or where they were expected to be someone they are not. It's a song about finding the courage to walk away from something that is hurting you, even if the other person doesn't want to let you go.
