Put You Down Lyrics

Heartbreaker, feelin' alright
Body over mind
It's slower, reduction is addictive too
Personality overview

I can see what the cost will be
You know, I don't need you
I just can't put you down
I can see what it all means to me
Honey, I don't need you
I just can't put you down
I can't put you down

Hard drinker, feelin' uptight
Your maker, mine
It's slower, reduction is addictive too
Personality overview

I can see what the cost will be
You know, I don't need you
I just can't put you down
I can see what it all means to me
Honey, I don't need you
I just can't put you down

Put you down, down, down, gonna put you down, down
Put you down, down, down, gonna put you down, down
Put you down, down, down, gonna put you down, down
Put you down, down, down, gonna put you down, down

Everything you buy is for the jingle
Every time you lie it's all the same
Ooh, and if you need a rhyme to kill the singer
Shoot me dead before I may be through

What is the Meaning of Put You Down?

Ever dealt with something you know is bad for you but just can't let go of? This song dives into that struggle, where addictive behaviors and toxic relationships take center stage. The lyrics reveal a cycle of knowing better ("I don't need you") but feeling powerless to break free ("I just can't put you down"). It highlights the battle between mind and body, where momentary pleasures or dependencies overshadow long-term well-being. The repeated attempts to "put you down" reflect the frustration of wanting to break away but continuously failing. Ultimately, it's a raw look at the cost of addiction and entanglements that keep you coming back, despite knowing the harm they cause.
