Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
When I met you
You said, "I'm open minded"
And it's not true
The farther I pushed you
The more you faked it
I let you control me
And I got complacent
I should'a run when I met you
Yeah
You got emotional problems
When you act like that
I can't solve em'
Call me a hundred times
When I'm not responding
Let's be honest you got
You got emotional problems
When you act like that
I can't solve em'
Call me a hundred times
When I'm not responding
Let's be honest you got
Emotional Problems
When you act like that
Emotional Problems
When you act like that
Emotional Problems
Can't even be me
And that's not healthy
Manipulate every situation
That's selfish
So many red flags
I can't help this
I can't fix this
No, No
Why didn't you listen to me
The first time
Overreacting and now
You start a fight
Mad about what you thought I did
Last night
You tell me its over
And then you change your mind
You got emotional problems
When you act like that
And I can't solve em'
Call me a hundred times
When I'm not responding
Let's be honest you got
Emotional problems
You got emotional problems
When you act like that
I can't solve em'
Call me a hundred times
When I'm not responding
Let's be honest you got
Emotional problems
When you act like that
Emotional Problems
When you act like that
Emotional Problems
The song "Emotional Problems" by Runaground depicts a toxic relationship where one person is controlling and manipulative, and the other person feels trapped and suffocated. At the beginning of the song, the singer admits that he and his partner are different people, but the partner initially claimed to be open-minded. As time goes on, the partner starts to exhibit emotionally unstable behavior, such as overreacting, starting fights, and calling the singer repeatedly when he doesn't respond. The singer recognizes that his partner has emotional problems but feels helpless to help him/her.
The chorus drives home the message that the emotional problems are a real issue that cannot be easily solved. The singer cannot fix his partner's issues, and his partner's behavior is not healthy for him. The repeated line, "When you act like that, I can't solve em'," highlights the helplessness and frustration of dealing with someone who has emotional problems that they refuse to address.
Overall, "Emotional Problems" conveys the message that toxic relationships can be emotionally draining and unhealthy. It's important to recognize when someone is exhibiting toxic behavior and to prioritize your own well-being.
