When I Say F^ck you

(A Deep Blues Woman Song)

Verse 1

You laid up beside me whisperin’ peace in my ear

Held me through the midnight while your lies sat near

Kissed me like forever, touched me soft and slow

Whole time behind my back… you was lettin’ another woman know

I cooked your pain for dinner

Wore your hurt like skin

And every time I trusted you

You let the devil in

Hook

So when I say “fuck you”…

Baby that’s what I mean

Ain’t no leftover love

Ain’t no in-between

You watched me love you honest

While you moved dirty and mean

So when I say “fuck you”…

That’s exactly what I mean

Verse 2

See betrayal hit different when your heart stay pure

Now I question every promise, every “baby, I’m sure”

You swore you hated cheaters

Said you’d never play that role

But the same thing you condemned

Was living in your soul

Now I don’t scream no more

I just get quiet and cold

Cause women like me learn early

Some love ain’t worth the hold

Hook

So when I say “fuck you”…

Baby that’s what I mean

You made loyalty feel foolish

And love feel unseen

I gave you all my softness

You handed back misery

So when I say “fuck you”…

That’s exactly what I mean

Bridge

I used to cry like thunder

Now I cry like rain

Soft enough to hide it

Heavy enough to stain

And every “I love you”

Sound different to me now

Cause a man can hold your body

And still let you down somehow

Final Verse

I ain’t bitter baby

I’m just done bein’ blind

A woman can survive heartbreak

But she don’t forget the signs

So keep your empty sorrys

Your late-night apologies

Cause the woman you broke open

Ain’t the woman leavin’ me

Outro

When I say “fuck you”…

Don’t ask me what I mean

You already know the answer

You just finally hearin’ me…
