Girl in Red has been cited as a queer icon by Paper, and a "phenomenon" who is "one of the most astute and exciting singer-songwriters working in the world of guitar music" by The New York Times. She was nominated for Best New Artist at the 2020 Norwegian Grammy Awards. In January 2021, her singles "I Wanna Be Your Girlfriend" (2017) and "We Fell in Love in October" (2018) were certified gold by the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA).
Did You Come?
girl in red Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
To fuck it up and fuck around
See yourself through my eyes
You're so fake, it's all lies
Was she good? Just what you liked?
Did you cum? How many times?
Tell the truth, wait, nevermind
I should have known you're full of it
I'm not upset, I'm fucking pissed
I spelled it out, you're illiterate
Did you do the things you know I like?
Roll your tongue, make her cum twenty times?
Don't tell me to relax or try to get me back
I'm packing up your bags
You should know better now
To fuck it up and fuck around
See yourself through my eyes
You're so fake, it's all lies
Was she good? Just what you liked?
Did you cum? How many times?
Tell the truth, wait, nevermind
Never listen to a monologue
Told by a lying fraud
I don't need to make sense
Of all your bullshit reasons
Did you listen to her heartbeat like you did with me?
Was it more than sex? Pure physicality
Don't bother giving me any more bad apologies
You should know better now
To fuck it up and fuck around
See yourself through my eyes
You're so fake, it's all lies
Was she good? Just what you liked?
Did you cum? How many times?
Tell the truth, wait, nevermind
She was a different kind, made you feel satisfied
Momentary happiness makes you feel alive
You had it all but you get be easily seduced by
The things that rip me apart
I'm a safe bet but you get intrigued
By uncertainty and mystique
Was I stupid enough to believe
you would change that for me?
The lyrics to Girl In Red's "Did You Come?" convey intense feelings of betrayal, anger and hurt resulting from a partner's infidelity. The singer expresses disbelief that someone they trusted could deceive them and questions what they saw in their partner that made them appear genuine. The repeated question, "Did you cum? How many times?" is a reminder of her partner's infidelity, and a blatant attempt to engage in the same behavior with someone else.
The singer is furious and is intent on making her partner accountable for their actions. The lines "I can't forgive, I can't forget/I should have known you're full of it" convey her disappointment and disillusionment with her partner. The singer echoes her frustration and anger by saying that she will not tolerate any bad apologies and is packing up her partner's bags, which signifies the end of their relationship.
In the end, the singer realizes that she was foolish to hope that her partner would change for her. The lyrics "You had it all but you get be easily seduced by/The things that rip me apart" suggests that the partner was drawn to something that he could not obtain, and the singer would never be enough. With this realization, the singer laments that she was foolhardy to have expected anything different and is left with the knowledge that she was cheated on and will never fully recover from the betrayal.

By uncertainty and mystique
You are attracted to the unknown and enigmatic
Was I stupid enough to believe
Was I foolish enough to think
you would change that for me?
That you would alter your behavior for the sake of our relationship?

Well I'm lovesick and they are probably never going to read this; I hope you don't because this is embarrassing and I'd die if you do. Anyways to get things off my chest... (bc why not put it in a YouTube comment section)
dear elliott (the person i will always and forever love dearly),
There are no words that exist that can describe how I feel about you. Words to describe how my face lights up when I get a text message from you. Words to describe the amount of butterflies I get from just reading a couple words you texted me and just hearing your voice. Words to describe how happy I get when I see your smile and the cringe pickup lines and tiktok videos that you send me, saying "this could be us". Words to describe how empty I feel without talking to you. (so far 5 days and counting): it literally feels like the world is going to end. I just feel so empty right now. My brain isn't functioning and I literally can't concentrate on anything. All I'm thinking about is you, you, you and I can't get you out of my head. Now that you're gone, I'm realizing now how important you were/are to me (wow I'm such an idiot, I know). I could go on and on and write a whole entire 10000 page essay (which still wouldn't be enough pages to describe how I feel about you) but I'm going to try and make this as short as possible. I've only known you for like two weeks (I know, I know) and I've never fallen for anyone this fast or hard (I don't know why, kind of sus tbh) But, there has not been a single day that goes by where you weren't my first thought when I wake up and my last when I fall asleep. Wondering what you're doing, what you're thinking of, how you've been, if you're doing okay, and well you know the rest. I was at my lowest point and you helped me through (without knowing). I wish we could be together, but you're with someone else now and you've lost feelings for me; completely understandable because I'm such a bitch (in general), broken, volatile, inconsistent, selfish, negative, stubborn, clingy person and well a whole list of negative traits. I knew from the start when I met you that you were the one, but it just wouldn't work out because of circumstances. It's not fair, but it's life. Hopefully in another life time I can call you mine. In another life time, where we meet one day, and I suddenly get these strange flashbacks, feelings, and deja vu. In another life time, where I can dance with you in the kitchen at 3 in the morning while attempting to make food and not set the entire house on fire (because I literally can't cook if my life depended on it) and sing Two Birds by Regina Spektor using spatulas as a microphone. In another life time where I could watch the sunset and sunrise with you on a hammock tied to palm trees with you in my arms watching the crimson sky. Cringe pickup line (bare with me): I would call you the sun but you ShInE EvEn WhEn It'S DaRk (rip). In another life, where we could just drive across the country with the windows rolled down, and the summer breeze blowing into our faces, screaming on the top of our lungs the entire "If I could make it go quiet" album. In another life, where we could travel the world together. Where we would be at the top of the London Eye and I would wrap a blanket around you so you wouldn't get cold from the chilly breeze while I stare deeply into your soul wondering how I got so lucky (umm creepy, I know). In another life, where I would kiss you on the Eiffel Tower (because EiFfEl fOr YoU; rip again) with the beautiful scenery or maybe in front of the cinderella castle in disney world with the fireworks in the background (because disney is a magical place after all). In another life, where we would slowly dance in the rain while blasting dark academia music. In another life, where we would adopt a bunch of cats and have snapdragons littered all over our apartment (number 402 of course). In another life, where we could just cuddle and watch how to train your dragon all day (butternut squash and your dogs can join). In another life, where you could teach me how to cook so I could finally cook something else then cereal and milk. I think I'm going to make you an album because I'm t h a t person. I'm crying while writing this- because I love you so much, and I suck at expressing my emotions directly and you have no idea how much I love you and the chances of you seeing this is literally well- my chances with being with you. I promise you that no one will ever love you as much as I do (toxic alert). Anyways, I hope you're doing well and hopefully someday I can call you mine. Thank you for reading my long ass paragraph or letter; I don't know at this point. Well that was longer than I anticipated; whoops my bad.
I fucking love you elliott.
From Yours Truly,
anna <33
Oh and here's a math equation and the steps (random but relevant):
9x-7i>3(3x-7u)
9x-7i>9x-21u
-7i>-21u
