Lyrics
Lonely hearts are hard to break
Lonely hearts are resilient and difficult to emotionally damage
Slowly, scars will take their place
Over time, emotional wounds will heal and leave scars in their place
Lie to me, just lie to me
Requesting deception, asking to be misled
Let's pretend that things are still the same
Suggesting a desire to maintain the illusion that things haven't changed
Lonely nights to stay awake
Nights spent alone, unable to sleep
Shining light on old mistakes
Examining and acknowledging past mistakes in the light
Lie to me, just lie to me
Asking for more deception, wishing to live in denial
Let's pretend that nothing ever changed
Desiring to pretend that nothing in the relationship has changed
It's easy if you try
Assuring that revisiting the past is simple
Cause it's all in your mind
Emphasizing that the emotional struggle is a product of the mind
The pocket of time
Referring to a specific period in the past as a "pocket of time"
Do you want to go back to the pocket of time?
Questioning if the desire is to return to that past "pocket of time"
If we can go back, could we make it right?
Exploring the possibility of correcting past mistakes if given the chance to go back
The pocket of time
Repeating the significance of the past as a "pocket of time"
Slow dancing at dusk with our hands intertwined
Describing a romantic scene of slow dancing in the evening with intertwined hands
If we can go back, could we make it right?
Revisiting the idea of correcting past mistakes
I never wanted to let go
Expressing reluctance to release the past
Lonely hearts are hard to break
Reiteration of the strength of lonely hearts
Slowly, scars will take their place
Reaffirmation that scars will replace emotional pain over time
Lie to me, just lie to me
Repeating the request for deception, maintaining the illusion of stability
Let's pretend that things are still the same
Emphasizing the desire to pretend that nothing has changed
Lonely nights to stay awake
Highlighting sleepless nights in loneliness
Shining light on old mistakes
Acknowledging and exposing past mistakes with clarity
Lie to me, just lie to me
Requesting continued deception, resisting the acceptance of change
Let's pretend that nothing ever changed
Insisting on the illusion that nothing has changed
Or at least let me forget
Expressing a desire to forget or ignore the past
The love we shared instead
Wishing to erase the memories of shared love
When you were mine
Recalling a time when the other person belonged
I promised you'd always be on my mind
Promising eternal remembrance, contrasting with the current frequent encounters
But now I see you all the time
Noticing the constant presence of the past in the present
The pocket of time
Reiteration of the importance of the past as a "pocket of time"
Slow dancing at dusk with our hands intertwined
Reimagining the romantic scene of slow dancing with intertwined hands
If we can go back, could we make it right?
Revisiting the idea of correcting past mistakes through time travel
I never wanted to let go
Reaffirming the reluctance to let go of the past
Lump of flesh inside my chest
Metaphorically referring to the heart as a lump of flesh
You could only do your best
Acknowledging the limitations of doing one's best in a relationship
Die for me, die for me
Expressing a dramatic plea for sacrifice in the name of love
Every song you love is cursed to end
Noting the inevitability of the end of beloved songs
Lump of flesh inside my chest
Repetition of the metaphor of the heart as a lump of flesh
You could only do your best
Reiterating the acknowledgment of doing one's best in a relationship
Die for me, die for me
Repeating the dramatic plea for a sacrificial act in the name of love
And never feel the wrath of love again
Expressing a desire to avoid the pain of love in the future
