Point Blank
Love's Dark Undertow: Jet Set Satellite's Point Blank Revelations
Lyrics
Oh, I dragged your heart into the dirt
Expressing causing emotional pain or distress to someone.
Filled it up again with hurt
Inflicting additional emotional pain after an initial hurt.
Then I nailed it up behind your back
Secrecy and betrayal, hiding actions that cause harm.
Squashed it down, painted it black
Intensifying the negative emotions, making it darker.
You got me so close
Feeling a strong emotional connection or proximity.
Hey, too close, comin' close to me
Expressing discomfort with someone getting too close emotionally.
Hey, you're like an overdose and I'm the antidote
Describing a person as overwhelming, and the narrator as the solution.
So I held your sadness in my hands
Taking responsibility for holding and containing someone's sadness.
Then buried right it in the sand
Burying emotions and issues without addressing them.
Pulled you close and whispered things
Being physically close and expressing affection with words.
That my love will never being
Admitting that the narrator's love may never bring happiness.
You got me so close
Reiterating the emotional closeness and intensity.
Hey, too close, comin' close to me
Repeating discomfort with emotional closeness.
Hey, you're like an overdose and I'm the antidote
Describing the person as overwhelming and the narrator as the solution (repeated).
Hey, too close, comin' close to me
Reiterating discomfort with emotional closeness (repeated).
Hey, caught in the undertow and I'm about to go
Feeling overwhelmed and on the brink of a significant change or decision.
Down with you all so point blank
Describing a critical moment, possibly a confrontation or realization.
We sailed our ship and it sank
Referencing a failed endeavor or relationship.
Don't treat it like it's nothing
Warning against dismissing the significance of the situation.
Oh, your friends all say that it's not fair
Noting that others see the narrator's actions as unfair.
That I mess you up and just don't care
Acknowledging the negative impact on the person, implying a lack of concern.
You know I've felt this way for far too long
Expressing a prolonged and deep emotional state.
But seein' you fall turns me on
Admitting a paradoxical attraction to witnessing the person's struggles.
You got me so close
Reiterating the emotional intensity (repeated).
Hey, too close, comin' close to me
Repeating discomfort with emotional closeness (repeated).
Hey, you're like an overdose and I'm the antidote
Describing the person as overwhelming and the narrator as the solution (repeated).
Hey, too close, comin' close to me
Reiterating discomfort with emotional closeness (repeated).
Hey, caught in the undertow and I'm about to go
Repeating the feeling of being overwhelmed and on the brink of a significant change.
Down with you all so point blank
Describing a critical moment, possibly a confrontation or realization (repeated).
We sailed our ship and it sank
Referencing a failed endeavor or relationship (repeated).
Don't treat it like it's nothing
Warning against dismissing the significance of the situation (repeated).
