Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
But I was in your bed almost every night
I thought we made it clear how we felt, read the signs
But now there's nothing left
'Cause you did nothing right
You had to go and ruin it
So you could get a quick fuck
And I won't make a big fuss
But know we're off and we'll never be on again
I hope that it was worth it, fucking Josslyn
Don't wanna fight, I just never wanna talk again
I hope that it was worth it, fucking Josslyn
I know we weren't together but we're more than friends
Said you couldn't see me while she gave you head
So please, don't ever call again
I hope that it was worth it, fucking Josslyn
Yeah, I hope that it was worth it
You didn't wanna be like the boys from before
Well, look at what you did, 'cause you hurt me more
You didn't have to lie like the truth is a chore
I guess I can't be mad
'Cause I was never yours
You had to go and ruin it
So you could get a quick fuck
I'm sure you had fun doing it
And I won't make a big fuss
But know we're off and we'll never be on again
I hope that it was worth it, fucking Josslyn
Don't wanna fight, I just never wanna talk again
I hope that it was worth it, fucking Josslyn
I know we weren't together but we're more than friends

I hope that it was worth it, fucking Josslyn
Yeah, I hope that it was worth it, fucking Josslyn
Yeah, I hope that it was worth it
Can't believe I was so stupid
Just another girl you ruined
My friends said I shouldn't do it
Should've listened, guess I blew it
So have fun fucking Josslyn
But know we're off and we'll never be on again
I hope that it was worth it, fucking Josslyn
Don't wanna fight, I just never wanna talk again
I hope that it was worth it, fucking Josslyn
I know we weren't together but we're more than friends
Said you couldn't see me while she gave you head
So please, don't ever call again
I hope that it was worth it, fucking Josslyn

The lyrics of Olivia O'Brien's song "Josslyn" narrate the story of a girl who had a casual sexual relationship with a guy, with no strings attached, but now feels betrayed and hurt because he slept with another girl, Josslyn. The song's opening lines indicate that they never had a clear-cut definition of their relationship and boundaries, but they spent considerable time together, mostly in bed. She believed that they both felt the same, but the guy's infidelity proves her wrong. The chorus expresses her disappointment and frustration towards Josslyn and the guy, wishing that they never cross paths again.
The second verse highlights the girl's realization that she was played for a fool, and the guy only cared about himself; he lied to her and made her believe in something that wasn't there. She feels foolish for trusting him and letting him into her life. The song concludes with the girl hoping that the guy and Josslyn's actions were worth losing her, and she has no intention of ever speaking to him again.
In summary, O'Brien's "Josslyn" is a raw depiction of a girl's heartbreak and disappointment after being used and mistreated by someone she thought cared for her, adding a contemporary twist to an age-old tale.
