Lyrics
When I used to breathe without my heart I met a varmint
Reflecting on a time when emotions were absent, encountering a troublesome person
And now I think I'm seeing him again
Believing to encounter the same troublesome person again
He didn't warn me I would have to crawl around
No warning about the challenges ahead, feeling the need to crawl
I mostly have forgiven him for this
Expressing forgiveness towards the troublesome person
Ding dong, ding dong
Repetition of the sound "ding dong," potentially signaling an event
I put something in his mail slot
Placing something in the mail slot of the troublesome person
I'm sprinting from the door so I'll be gone in time
Hurrying away to avoid consequences
Something I know keeps me scared of what he'll do to me
Feeling fear about potential actions of the troublesome person
He's true to me but everything's a lie
Acknowledging the loyalty of the troublesome person but questioning the sincerity of everything
How could I not hate it now
Expressing current hatred towards the situation
Put it back where it was
Instructing to return something to its original place
Do you think you killed me now
Pondering if the actions have caused harm or death
Darling, I'm not kidding now
Asserting the seriousness of the situation
Put it back where it was
Repeating the instruction to return something to its original place
Darling, you're a pretty clown
Referring to someone as a charming fool or performer
Way up from the aerie, always knew that I would love you
Expressing enduring love from a higher perspective
With no desire to take off all my clothes
Having no intention to expose vulnerability by removing clothing
And perhaps one day, I'll forget and fall again
Predicting a possible future of forgetting and falling in love again
As if I was not betrayed or left alone
Feeling betrayed or abandoned despite future possibilities
Ding dong, ding dong
Repetition of the sound "ding dong"
I put something in his mail slot
Repeating the act of placing something in the mail slot and hurrying away
I'm sprinting from the door so I'll be gone in time
Reiterating the urgency to avoid consequences
Something I know keeps me scared of what he'll do to me
Reiterating the fear of potential actions by the troublesome person
He's true to me but everything's a lie
Reaffirming the loyalty of the troublesome person while doubting everything
How could I not hate it now
Reiterating the current feelings of hatred
Put it back where it was
Repeating the instruction to return something to its original place
Do you think you killed me now
Repeating the contemplation of harm or death caused by actions
Darling, I'm not kidding now
Reasserting the seriousness of the situation
Put it back where it was
Repeating the instruction to return something to its original place
Darling, you're a pretty clown
Reiterating the reference to someone as a charming fool or performer
Thought a crown would suit him nicely
Believing a crown would suit the troublesome person
I thought a crown would suit him nicely
Repeating the belief that a crown would suit the troublesome person
The dead belief in noble varmint
Expressing a dead belief in a noble troublesome person
I'll leave the door alone cause it's not worthy
Deciding not to bother the door because it's deemed unworthy
I cant remember what he looked like
Unable to recall the physical appearance of the troublesome person
I know he had wings and antennae, restrained by chains
Remembering wings and antennae, suggesting a unique or supernatural being
That poor man- I think I'd marry him
Expressing a willingness to marry the troublesome person despite challenges
Kiss him someday
Expressing a desire to kiss the troublesome person someday
He's no man, or so he'll say
Acknowledging that the troublesome person is not a conventional man
Or so he'll say
Emphasizing the troublesome person's self-perception as not a man
Ding dong, ding dong
Repetition of the sound "ding dong"
Ding dong, ding dong
