We’d need to disagree, but just slightly. It can appear to be about a man plus the girl he used to date (let’s call her woman 2) and also the woman he is presently dating (let us call her woman 1), but I do not genuinely believe that the narrator associated with track really means she should have been more like the new girl that she thinks.

A number of the lines also make me genuinely believe that that is really a situation of a man making woman 1 for woman 2 after which returning to girl 1 [“You took an opportunity for a bruised and beaten heart. Then you were realized by you desired everything you had.”] I believe the narrator is pointing away that the latest woman is really a bit of the doormat on her behalf man, and if she wanted to [“She don’t have too much to say when she gets mad that she couldn’t have been like that. She knows she do not let get of any such thing. Even if the pain sensation gets really bad”].

Additionally, it would appear that the brand new woman is among those girls that simply turns a blind attention towards the things her guy does incorrect and keeps on loving him anyhow, most likely a lot more than she actually is liked in exchange [“. desperation showed it is truth. You like her and she really loves you along with she’s got”]. The narrator is actually simply stating that she’s too strong and prideful to behave that means in a relationship. I might be incorrect right here, but this is actually the method We’ve grasped the track.

I believe the man is cheating on the narrator to his wife. He finally extends back to their spouse. She thinks I’m different from his wife and that’s why he wants me; when he goes back to the wife, narrator thinks guess I should have been more like her, as now she’s fallen for him when he first comes to the narrator. I do believe that “in her simple small method” is really a dig in the spouse, implying that she actually is stupid this is exactly why she took him straight back and that is also why he went back, ‘cause he might get away with such a thing with spouse.

She is stunning inside her easy small means

She don’t possess a great deal to state whenever she gets angry

She understands she do not let get of any such thing

Even though the pain sensation gets actually bad

Guess i will’ve been similar to that

You’d all of it for a pretty short time

Plus some exactly exactly how I was made by you smile once I ended up being unfortunate

You took the opportunity on a beaten and bruised heart

Then you definitely were realized by you wanted that which you had

We assume I should’ve been similar to that

I should have held on to my pride

I will haven’t allow you to lie

I assume you have that which you deserved

I suppose I will’ve been a lot more like her

Forgiving you, she’s stronger than i will be

That you don’t look just like a person from where i am at

It really is simple to see desperation showed it really is truth

You like her and she loves you with all she’s

We assume I will’ve been similar to that

I will have held on to my pride

I ought to have not seeking arrangement alternative enable you to lie

I suppose you have that which you deserved

We suppose I should’ve been similar to her

She actually is breathtaking in her simple, small means

* When I hear this track i believe about two girls and a man. The only woman did precisely what you are not expected to do in a relationship, or did not try difficult sufficient. So she was left by the boy met some other person and discovered a lady that is amazing at every thing. It’s almost since like she actually is comparing by herself to the other woman realizing just what she actually is doing, she should have inked in addition. I’m not sure if it is reasonable, or if this can be proper but that is the thing I think. Hope we helped : )
