Lyric Better off Dead

Musically, this one has a sort of overblown, heavenly quality to it. But lyrically, it s another story of a guy getting himself into a bad relationship that he can t get out of. He says, "When you fall in love with someone who doesn t love you/ Someone who treats you so badly it ramifies your head/ Someone who doesn t want you but won t let you go/ Someone who thinks you re crazy and tells you so, over and over and over/ If this happens to you, you re better off dead." It s exaggerated, but there s a kernel of truth there for so many people. You don t know what bad is until you feel that. I know what I m talking about because I was once a woman who loved too much.

I know some critic is going to think I don t know what the word ramify means, or how to use it. made up an alternate verb form of it here, like a made-up R&B word, like the "puppetudes" of love. wanted to say how there would be ramifications from something that happens to your head in this kind of a relationship. I should ve said "blamifies" or something to make it really obvious I was playing with the word, but I just didn t give a fuck.
