Down
Heart's Descent: A Poetic Journey Through Love's Abyss
Lyrics
I let myself be a fool for you
I allowed myself to be foolish for you
Knowing very well of the things you do
Aware of your actions
You tear me up and break me down
You emotionally hurt me and bring me down
Baby my heart is your playground
My heart is vulnerable to you
From what I can see
From my perspective
But the scars on my heart
My heart bears scars telling an untold story
Tell a story that you’ll never read
Your actions are not understood by you
Of how tear me up and break me down
Reiterates emotional damage
You’re bringing me
You induce emotions in me
Down
Repetition emphasizing being brought down emotionally
Down
-Down
-You’re bringing me
-Down
-Down
-Down
-I let myself be a slave for love
I became a slave to love
Giving all I have, till theres nothing left
Giving everything until there's nothing left
Then I let you chip away at my pride
You slowly diminish my pride
It’s like you live to see the tears fall from my eyes
Your satisfaction in my tears
How foolish am I
Expresses self-awareness and regret
To think you will change
Foolish hope for change
That things will always be this way
Doubt about a lasting positive change
That you wont always tear me up
Anticipating continued emotional harm
Or break me down
-You’re bringing me
Repetition of being brought down emotionally
Down
-Down
-Down
-You’re bringing me
-Down
-Down
-Down
-You’re bringing me
Continued repetition of emotional decline
Down
-Down
-Down
-You’re bringing me
-Down
-Down
-Down
-Can’t get you out of my mind
Struggling to forget
Drown in these bottles of rum
Seeking solace in alcohol
You fucked with my feelings
Your actions have desensitized me
And now I’m just feeling so numb
Numbing emotional pain
I can't get you out my head
Memories linger, feeling abandoned
The times that you’ve been in my bed
-Now leave me all alone with the lights off
-Down
Repetition of being brought down emotionally
Down
-Down
-Down
-Down
-Down
-You’re bringing me
Emphasizes emotional descent
Down
Continued descent
(No more crying)
Repetition of "No more crying," indicating a desire for emotional relief
Down
-(No more crying)
-Down
-(No more crying)
-You’re bringing me
-Down
-(No more crying)
-Down
-(No more crying)
-Down
-(No more crying)
-You’re bringing me
-Down
-(No more crying)
-Down
-(No more crying)
-Down
-(No more crying)
-You’re bringing me
-Down
-(No more crying)
-Down
-(No more crying)
-Down
-(No more crying)
-(No more crying)
Final plea for an end to emotional suffering
