Vassy Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Da da nda nda da da] x3

*Verse 1*

Boy you're wasting my time
But maybe that is my crime
I should of left you
Guess then I was the fool when you stepped outta line
And we'd get all inner twined
I got to end it with you
But I couldn't quite do
Don't know why I denied
All that time that I cried
Didn't know what to do
Deep down I had a clue
That I had to resign
To the fact that you lied
Afraid that I would lose you
Cause I was still in love with you

*Chorus* [x2]
Boy you mess up
Now you wanna fess up
Cause you wanna get back on to me
Too late cause I'm over you
What we had is gone to me your History

What is left of you
Da da nda nda da da [x3]

*Verse 2*
For me to recognize
Is it you or my pride
I've got nothing to lose
So it's me that I choose
You were holding me down
Had to bounce or I'd drown
You're the shadow on my light
Stop me shining so bright

*Chorus*[x2]
Boy you mess up
Now you wanna fess up
Cause you wanna get back on to me
Too late cause I'm over you
What we had is gone to me your History

What is left of you
Da da nda nda da da [x3]

Oooh Oooh Ooooh

*Bridge*
When I saw that you called
I see your name on my phone
Makes me nervous inside
Emotions I can't hide
Why you hurt me so bad
Far too long I was sad
You're my joy my pain
I ain't playing no game

*Chorus*[x2]
Boy you mess up
Now you wanna fess up
Cause you wanna get back on to me
Too late cause I'm over you
What we had is gone to me your history

Boy you mess up
Now you wanna fess up
Cause you wanna get back on to me
Too late, too late, too late
What he had is gone to me your history





What is left of you

Overall Meaning

She then confronts the boy in the chorus, saying that it is too late for him to make amends and that their relationship is now history. The second verse reveals that the girl felt restrained in the relationship and struggled to shine as brightly as she wanted to, but now that she has left the boy behind, she can focus on herself and choose to live the life she wants.
