Discover the story of the song > A Try – Alien Lipstick Fire

The lyrics of this song are about someone who is being left hanging and ignored by their romantic partner. The protagonist is telling their partner to go ahead and leave out the punchline and to leave them hanging. They are saying that it's up to their partner to make the decision to leave or stay, but it's not like they haven't experienced this before. In the second verse, the protagonist tells their partner that it's not worth knowing and they describe the facts that their partner is throwing at them. The chorus repeats the idea that it is up to the partner to make the call and that the protagonist is used to being treated this way.
