about
With “Damn You” I set out to write a deep, sad and heartfelt love ballad and failed miserably! My real life relationship was going too well for that and I was stuck in writer’s block. So, the song is about being in love with someone who knows you too well and makes you too happy to let you self-sabotage or write a sad song.
- Shaina Silver-Baird
lyrics
You make me feel too good to write sad songs
You’re always on my mind
It’s makin’ all the words come out all wrong
I stare at empty pages, blinding white
I’m just way too high
To put anything down, nothing feels right
You flip my heart upside right
You turn me without even tryin’
Damn you
You make it hard to write a sad song
Damn you, my love
Damn you
Baby you’re so up I can’t get down
Keep tryin’ to walk away
But I can’t get my feet to touch the ground
Every time I try to pick a fight
You can see right through me
Just a little kiss there goes my night
You flip my heart upside right
You turn me without even tryin’
Damn you
You make it hard to write a sad song
Damn you, my love
Damn you
Ok, hey
I feel somethin’, I feel something’, it’s so real
Heart pumpin’, I’m high jumpin’, I feel good
Long nights apart I manifest chills
I feel somethin’, It keeps comin’, I can’t tell
What is, what is was, what it do
I’m lovin’ on you so, we grow like bamboo
Embracin’ your flaws, it’s the cause of your truth
I’m vibin’ on a feelin’, Baby, you too
I’m brand new, I’m lovesick, I’m a fool
I’m brand new, because a’ you, times two
For far too long we belong in this heat
I’m vibin’ on a feelin’, damn me
You flip my heart upside right
You turn me without even tryin’
Damn you
You make it hard to write a sad song
Damn you, my love
Damn you
