Lines:
♪ Damn all these beautiful girls ♪
♪ They only wanna do you dirt ♪
♪ They'll have you suicidal suicidal ♪
♪ When they say it's over ♪
The singer expresses frustration and pain, claiming that beautiful girls cause harm and make one feel deeply depressed when they end the relationship.
Syntax: The structure 'They only wanna do you dirt' uses informal contraction 'wanna' for 'want to' and places the object pronoun 'you' before the noun 'dirt.' 'They'll have you suicidal' uses 'have + object + adjective' causative structure meaning 'cause you to become.'
Morphology: 'Damn' is used as an interjection expressing frustration. 'Suicidal' is repeated for emphasis, a common poetic device. 'It's over' uses the contraction of 'it is.'

♪ See it started at the park ♪
♪ Used to chill after dark ♪
♪ Oh when you took my heart ♪
♪ That's when we fell apart ♪
The singer recalls the relationship's innocent beginning in a park and identifies the moment she 'took his heart' as when problems began.

Morphology: 'Chill' is informal for 'relax/spend time.' 'Took' is past tense of 'take.' 'Fell apart' is past tense of the phrasal verb 'fall apart.'

Morphology: 'Sprung' is past participle used colloquially to mean 'deeply in love/caught.' 'Didn't' is contraction of 'did not.' 'Made' is past tense of 'make.'

Syntax: 'It was back in '99' uses 'it' as a dummy subject for time reference. 'Watchin' movies all the time' uses dropped 'g' in present participle (informal). 'For doin' my first crime' uses 'for + gerund' to express reason.
Morphology: 'Watchin'' and 'doin'' show informal elision of 'g.' 'Went' is past tense of 'go.' 'Thought' is past tense of 'think.'
Lines:
♪ Now we're fussin' ♪
♪ And now we're fightin' ♪
♪ Please tell me why ♪
♪ I'm feelin' slighted ♪
The relationship has deteriorated into constant arguing and fighting, leaving the singer feeling disrespected and hurt.
