Yvonne Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Baby we're through
Giving up perfection is what i do
So take it all out on me
Righteus i am, i'm gonna shut my mouth
Could you look sweet for me now
You little worm
Oh god you gonna miss me when i'm gone
Take your dirty hands off me
So i can lay my dirtier hands on you
Oh go on curse the one beside you
It's just another way to hold you back
You don't want his skinny arms around you
But it's just another way to hold you back
You know it's just another way to hold you back
I'm sick of being me, i'm sick of being me
Emotional flatline is why i leave
I'm ... your back that trashy little fake is gonna take them home/all
This dirty ballad boy is making promises but never calls
Is gonna bring the situation to a fall
But i'm done doing you undone
Righteus i am, i'm gonna shut my mouth
So go on curse the one beside you
It's just another way to hold you back
You don't want his skinny arms around you
But it's just another way to hold you back
You know it's just another way to hold you back
It's just another way to hold you back
It's just another way to hold you back
The lyrics of Yvonne's song "Dirt" express a sense of frustration and a need for change in a relationship. The first stanza sets the tone for the song as the singer asserts that she is no longer willing to settle for perfection and is done with the relationship. The second stanza is almost accusatory in tone as the singer addresses the person in the relationship and asks them to show some sweetness before insulting them as a "little worm". The chorus shifts to a more assertive tone as the singer demands that the other person removes their hands from them and warns them that they will miss them when they are gone.
The third stanza reveals a sense of dissatisfaction with the self, with the singer saying that they are sick of being emotional and that they will bring the relationship to a "fall". The final repetition of the chorus emphasizes that the other person is holding the singer back in some way, even if they do not necessarily want the person who is sitting beside them.
Overall, "Dirt" is a song that captures a complicated mixture of emotions, ranging from frustration and anger to longing and sadness. It suggests a sense of weariness in a relationship which, for all its flaws, is difficult to leave behind.
