Lyrics
When did your heart stop beating
Questioning when the emotional connection ended.
Your feet start leaving
Noticing the physical departure, possibly emotionally or geographically.
I call and you don't answer your phone
Expressing frustration about unresponsiveness.
When did your heart stop beating
Repetition of questioning the end of emotional connection.
Your feet start leaving
Reiteration of noticing the departure.
I call and you don't answer your phone
Repetition of frustration over unresponsiveness.
Why did you say you mean it
Questioning the sincerity of previous statements.
You force your feelings
Describing the act of suppressing genuine emotions.
Tonight I guess I'm sleeping alone
Expressing the consequence of emotional distance, sleeping alone.
You can't make me fall out of love
Asserting independence and resistance to falling out of love.
When it's all said and done oh yeah
Reflecting on the conclusion of a situation or relationship.
She said "make me believe you're the one
Quoting a request to make the speaker believe in commitment.
I need someone to trust" oh yeah
Expressing the need for trust in a relationship.
When did your heart stop beating
Repetition of questioning when the emotional connection ended.
Your feet start leaving
Reiteration of noticing the departure.
I call and you don't answer your phone
Repetition of frustration over unresponsiveness.
Why did you say you mean it
Questioning the sincerity of previous statements.
You force your feelings
Describing the act of suppressing genuine emotions.
Tonight I guess I'm sleeping alone
Expressing the consequence of emotional distance, sleeping alone.
So make me
An urging statement to have an impact or influence.
Go ahead and break me
Encouraging a significant emotional experience, even if painful.
You been on the run
Referencing a period of avoidance or escape.
But I'm holding on your laces, let's face it
Asserting control or influence over the person being addressed.
You wasted
Commenting on wasted effort or resources.
Ink on all these pages
Referring to wasted written expressions of emotion.
Letters on your tongue
Referring to verbal expressions of emotion.
But I see your lips are shaking
Observing physical signs of emotional turmoil.
Cuz you know I'd be patient
Stating willingness to be patient during a pursuit.
While you're waiting for the chase
Highlighting the waiting aspect of a relationship.
And I can't change it
Accepting an inability to change a situation.
The two of us could make this love
Expressing the potential for mutual effort in rebuilding love.
Rebuild the trust
Emphasizing the need to restore trust in the relationship.
But I can't read your faces
Expressing difficulty in understanding the emotions of the other person.
You can't make me fall out of love
Reiteration of resistance to falling out of love.
When it's all said and done oh yeah
Reflecting on the conclusion of a situation or relationship.
She said "make me believe you're the one
Quoting a request to make the speaker believe in commitment.
I need someone to trust" oh yeah
Expressing the need for trust in a relationship.
When did your heart stop beating
Repetition of questioning when the emotional connection ended.
Your feet start leaving
Reiteration of noticing the departure.
I call and you don't answer your phone
Repetition of frustration over unresponsiveness.
Why did you say you mean it
Questioning the sincerity of previous statements.
You force your feelings
Describing the act of suppressing genuine emotions.
Tonight I guess I'm sleeping alone
Expressing the consequence of emotional distance, sleeping alone.
