Racing Hearts
Racing Hearts: A Tempted Love, Broken Vows
Lyrics
It's on tonight
Anticipation for something happening or starting soon.
It's clear as day in black and white
The situation is obvious and straightforward.
The ceiling's falling on our heads
Feeling overwhelmed or pressured.
A slumber party and we're sleeping next to knives
A risky or dangerous situation.
Heart was racing
Feeling anxious or excited.
I couldn't change that
Unable to control the fast beating of the heart.
Sorry, happy belated
An apology that comes late, possibly indicating regret.
I could tell that he put up a fight
Recognition of someone resisting or struggling.
Oh, it was after dark the day I met you
Meeting someone in the evening.
I didn't wanna ask what went down in the restroom
Avoiding asking about a questionable or uncomfortable situation.
Shattered glass and broken dolls
References to chaos and damage.
Mind nodded off, but I knew he was tempted
Being aware of temptation despite being sleepy or distracted.
Oh, here it comes again
A sense of anticipation or apprehension.
Oh no, were on the run again
Being in a situation where escape or evasion is necessary.
Revoke a senseless idiot
Rejecting something without meaning or purpose.
A tainted love to dust
A love that has deteriorated or been ruined.
Your love's an artifact
Your love is something that has become a relic or outdated.
Shadows and heart attacks
Feelings of fear and unexpected physical conditions.
Maybe I don't want it back
Maybe not wanting to return to a previous situation.
And I'm better off alone
Feeling better being alone.
I have my foot out the door
Ready to leave or exit a situation.
The world is mine to explore
Feeling a sense of freedom or opportunity.
I'm only here to misbehave
Being present to rebel or defy norms.
Don't care if I start a war
Not concerned about the consequences of causing conflict.
And just because I say I like it
Liking something doesn't mean following the rules or norms related to it.
Doesn't mean I'll play right
Not adhering to expected behavior despite expressing interest.
And you can cheer all you want
Acknowledging support or applause despite resistance.
But at least I put up a fight
Proud of resisting or opposing something.
It's on tonight
Reiteration of anticipation for something happening or starting soon.
It's clear as day in black and white
The situation is obvious and straightforward (repeated).
The ceiling's falling on our heads
Feeling overwhelmed or pressured (repeated).
A slumber party and we're sleeping next to knives
A risky or dangerous situation (repeated).
Heart was racing
Feeling anxious or excited (repeated).
I couldn't change that
Unable to control the fast beating of the heart (repeated).
Sorry, happy belated
An apology that comes late, possibly indicating regret (repeated).
I could tell that he put up a fight
Recognition of someone resisting or struggling (repeated).
