Lyrics

Hearts has been broke

Hearts have been broken

but all of my numbers are lower than seven

All my numbers are lower than seven, suggesting a sense of inadequacy or failure

it could be a gift, if this were any other game

The situation could be seen as a gift if it were a different circumstance or context

do take your time

Take your time when you leave, possibly emphasizing the importance of a careful departure

when you leave

Reiteration of the importance of being patient when leaving


Waiting upstairs

Someone is waiting upstairs

for word that we all can stop waiting for words

Waiting for a message that could put an end to the anticipation for words

to make us whole

Desire for words to bring completeness or resolution

I'll take the elevator down

Expressing a willingness to descend swiftly using an elevator

dealing you in

Involvement in a card game, possibly metaphorical for life's challenges

tooth and nail

Emphasis on intense struggle or competition symbolized by "tooth and nail"

I can pretend

Ability to pretend

I can make everyone laugh out loudly

I'm on the fence

Undecided or uncertain position, represented by being "on the fence"

we're all alone we have it all

Despite being alone, feeling complete or having everything

call it a tie

Calling it a tie suggests a balanced or equal situation

heads or tails

Heads or tails, a reference to the unpredictability of outcomes in decision-making

You can pretend

Encouraging pretending, possibly for unity or resistance

we are all gathered here for a riot

Gathering for a riot, expressing collective dissent or rebellion

shooting the moon

Metaphorical action of "shooting the moon" implies aiming for an ambitious goal

tearing to shreds

Intense destruction or tearing into pieces

shooting the mutation within

Fighting against a mutation within, possibly a metaphor for internal struggles

I'd save your skin

Offering protection or support in a fierce competition ("tooth and nail")
