It's Over
Heartbreak Symphony: Navigating the Tides of Love
Lyrics
The engineer of my heart has replaced her tools
The person who used to mend or nurture my emotions has replaced their methods/tools.
Falling in love, we were both just fools
Both of us were naive or foolish in falling in love.
He was the one, but I was protected
They were the right person, but I kept myself guarded or shielded.
The feelings were there, just not let in
Emotions existed but weren't allowed to surface or be acknowledged.
So she lays out her tools on the hole in my chest
The person is metaphorically repairing the emptiness or emotional void in me.
And I stand up straight, try to look my best
Trying to present oneself positively despite the emotional repair.
Her gaze rose right past me
The person's attention doesn’t fully focus on me.
I’m stuck in the backseat
Feeling relegated or sidelined.
Desolate, empty mountains
Desolate, lonely landscapes.
Clear, busy cities
Vivid, bustling urban areas.
Sad songs, and crying fountains
Contrasts between sad and happy situations.
Happy tunes, calm seas
Opposites of melancholy and calmness.
I fall in this hole that I’m trapped in
Feeling trapped or confined in a difficult situation.
The mistakes I made, and the joy I’m lacking
Regret for past mistakes and a sense of missing happiness.
We rise, we fall, we stride
Life's fluctuations, ups, and downs.
All in the moment life’s the sea, we’re the tide
Analogizing life to the sea and individuals to its tide.
Up and down my happiness goes
Emotional highs and lows are extreme.
The highs are not high, and the lows are too low
A dislike for something before, now seen positively due to changed perspectives.
Before I met her I didn’t like the color yellow
Symbolic reference to a sunflower enhancing someone else's connection.
But now I see it and it shines above, not at all mellow
Personal responsibility for creating emotional distance.
The sunflower that he puts in your hair
Fragmented or damaged emotional state.
It lengthens the gap in my heart that I put there
Pain and sorrow being experienced and expressed.
The petals from my broken soul fall to the ground
Feeling targeted or unwanted by others.
Nectar of pain drops all around
Considering removing reminders of pain or hurt.
The buzzing of bees that wish for my death
Perceiving negative intent or feelings from others.
These flowers, I may get rid of them yet
Contemplating getting rid of sources of emotional pain.
A broken raft in a sea of our hearts
Comparing relationships to a sinking raft due to personal thoughts and actions.
My own thoughts and actions tore us apart
Self-blame for the relationship's breakdown.
I’m sinking, I’m drowning, you’re smiling, I’m frowning
Feeling overwhelmed while the other seems unaffected.
It’s over, it’s done, this raft rips itself apart
Realization and acceptance that the relationship is ending.
My broken heart, I’m left in the dark, it’s all my fault, I’m playing the part
Self-blame and feeling left alone in darkness.
I’ll laugh it off, but my soul has had enough
Maintaining a facade while internally hurting.
So I lay in this broken boat as the waves push me beneath
Metaphorically being overcome by emotional waves.
The sharks feed on the blood from my head to my feet
Symbolism of being devoured by negative emotions or situations.
My health it depletes
Physical and emotional deterioration.
My connection it leaves
Loss of emotional connection.
My wishing, you meet them
Desiring wishes to be fulfilled, contrasting with another's amusement.
You laugh and I plead them
Requesting for desires while facing ridicule or dismissal.
I’ve had enough
Feeling emotionally drained and exhausted.
I’m not so tough
Realizing vulnerability or fragility despite prior toughness.
Don’t look at me
Rejecting attention or scrutiny from others.
It’s all a big bluff
Admitting pretense or deception in presenting oneself.
It’s over, it’s over, it’s over, it’s over, it’s over
Repeated acknowledgment and acceptance of the relationship's end.
It’s over, it’s over, it’s over, it’s over, it’s over
Continued acknowledgment and acceptance of the relationship's end.
