The meaning of the lyrics of the song "acting like that" by the artist "YUNGBLUD"

Contents

In the song "acting like that," Machine Gun Kelly and YUNGBLUD sing about a tumultuous and toxic relationship with a girl.

Machine Gun Kelly describes a girl who shows up at his doorstep in the middle of the night after their breakup. He acknowledges that their relationship was complicated ("You're a Libra and I'm a Taurus") and hints at her infidelity ("Heard you're back with your ex"). Despite all this, he is captivated by her and believes she is too hot to be acting this way.

YUNGBLUD picks up the theme of toxic relationships, describing a girl who constantly plays with his emotions. He confesses that he still thinks about her ("Got that look in your eye, in my mind"), even though he knows she flew to another state. YUNGBLUD understands that this relationship is unhealthy, but he can't seem to let go.

The chorus, performed by both artists, emphasizes the main message of the song: despite the girl's fickleness and toxicity, her attractiveness prevents them from breaking the vicious cycle.

The "La-la-la" at the end of the song can be interpreted as an expression of hopelessness and the inability to break free from this vicious cycle.

[Verse 1: Machine Gun Kelly]

Who's that knockin' at four in the morning? (Four in the morning)

'Cause it don't rain, but tonight it's pouring (Tonight it's pouring)

Uh, you like it more when I ignore it (You like it, yeah)

And since I left, LA got boring (Since I've been gone, yeah)

Hey, I'm back on my bullshit

You're a Libra, I'm a Taurus

Heard you hooked back up with your ex

And now you're asleep on my doorstep

[Chorus: Machine Gun Kelly]

You're way too hot to be acting like that

Acting like that, acting like that

You're way too hot to be acting like that

Acting like that, acting like that

I don't wanna talk right now

You're asleep outside my house

You're way too hot to be acting like that

Acting like that, acting like that

[Verse 2: YUNGBLUD]

(I've always been)

I heard that today you got on a plane to another state

I think I'm okay

Never gonna change my mind

Never gonna change my mind

And I don't think today is the last time,

You got bright eyes in the dark side

I can see that look in your eyes

I can see that look in your eyes, yeah

Now I can't sleep, I'm all alone

And what we reaped was what we sowed

So can we meet somewhere in the middle? (Yeah)

[Chorus: Machine Gun Kelly & YUNGBLUD]

You're way too hot to be acting like that

Acting like that, acting like that

You're way too hot to be acting like that

Acting like that, acting like that

I don't wanna talk right now (Right now)

You're asleep outside my house (Asleep outside my house)

You're way too hot to be acting like that

Acting like that, acting like that

[Post-Chorus: YUNGBLUD]

La-la, la-la, la-la

La-la-la

La-la, la-la, la-la

La-la-la

[Bridge: Machine Gun Kelly & YUNGBLUD]

Ayy

I'm going out my head

I fell in love again

I know that you'll forget me in the morning

When you are gone again

Yeah
