Issues
vcnt Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I'm so fed up
You push me down
But I get up
This pain right now
Will not let up
I think I'm better off alone
I won't be blowing up your phone
Cause I've got my issues
And you've got your issues
I won't ever ever miss you
And when you're gone I won't need tissues
I swear, I swear
I could be the bigger person and wish you all the best
Like all the rest
But I'd be lying if that's what I said
Our time together is dead
Our time together is dead
I can't lie now
I'm so fed up
Always count on you to mess up
That's the one thing that you're best at
I won't lie and say I'm perfect
Love to watch these bridges burning
Lack of care should be concerning
But it's not
But it's not
I'll even light the flame that burns it
God is the only thing I worship
Won't kiss up to another person
I know my purpose
I can't lie now
I'm so fed up
Always count on us to mess up
That's the one thing that we're best at
Cause I've got my issues
And you've got your issues
I won't ever ever miss you
And when you're gone I won't need tissues
I swear, I swear
I could be the bigger person and wish you all the best
Like all the rest
But I'd be lying if that's what I said
Our time together is dead
Our time together is dead
