VERSE Let me start with I’ve let you go But you don’t get it though Politely I’ve asked you to leave But still you follow It’s hard when you’re full of heart When the house you built just falls apart Well keep the paint fresh keep the outside clean Make sure the neighbors see you wear that ring Don’t tell them a thing they don’t know you like me You’re the girl that cries "Water in the basement" Everybody stop wait look see You’re the girl that could lie to my face And fabricate a flood to get through to me I went away and you found a replacement So call him don’t call me To the girl that cries "Water in the basement" You drama everything VERSE I heard a good friend once say "You got one life live it ’cause they’ll take it away" From both of us one day you know they will So color it up color it up Say your last goodbye I don’t give a fuck Bottoms up just watch me walk away I’m here to say that - I don’t need your sorry dream at all What makes you think you can - Tell me how to feel or how hard I should fall? Oh my you’re not anything I need in my life You’re not anything I even want ’cause they don’t know you like me You’re the girl that cries "Water in the basement" Everybody stop wait look see You’re the girl that could lie to my face And fabricate a flood to get through to me I went away and you found a replacement So call him don’t call me To the girl that cries "Water in the basement" You drama everything BRIDGE Here’s what you gotta do Hold you head high Shoot first man don’t ask why Yeah you won’t feel the pain at all Well I guess I grew this mind I think for myself and I’m fine No I don’t need anything from you at all They don’t know you like me You’re the girl that cries "Water in the basement" Everybody stop wait look see You’re the girl that could lie to my face And fabricate a flood to get through to me I went away and you found a replacement So call him don’t call me To the girl that cries "Water in the basement" You drama everything (Fabricate a flood to get through to me) (So call him don’t call me) OUTRO You drama everything Drama So much drama

À propos de la chanson

La chanson traite des conséquences émotionnelles d'une rupture et de la difficulté de se détacher d'une personne qui joue constamment des drames. Le narrateur exprime son désarroi face à une ex-compagne qui a du mal à accepter la séparation, continuant à jouer sur les émotions et à attirer l'attention avec des manipulations. Il ressent une forme de frustration, réalisant qu'il n'a pas besoin de ce genre de relations toxiques dans sa vie. Le contexte est celui d'une rupture douloureuse où les souvenirs et les manipulations emotionales persistent, montrant la lutte pour la liberté et la reconstruction de soi. On y retrouve cette idée que malgré les apparences, il est essentiel de s'affranchir des attentes et des drames des autres pour avancer sereinement.
