Locking Up My Heart
Locking Up My Heart: Escaping Love's Misery
Lyrics
I'm puttin' up my guard
I am being cautious and defensive
I'm lockin' up my heart
I am securing and protecting my emotions
Tellin' Cupid to pass by me
Asking Cupid, the symbol of love, to avoid influencing me
'Cause all love ever brought me was misery
Reflecting on past experiences where love only brought pain
Hello loneliness, goodbye love
Greeting loneliness while bidding farewell to love
I'm tired of being abused and being misused
Expressing exhaustion from being mistreated and taken advantage of
I've had my share of romance, no more for me
Having had enough of romantic experiences, deciding to avoid them
I'm lockin' up my heart and throwin' away the key
Committing to closing off emotions and not giving love a chance
Lockin' up (lockin' up, lockin' up)
Reiterating the decision to lock up emotions
Said I'm gonna throw away the key (throw away the key)
Affirming the determination to completely close off from love
I'm lockin' up (lockin' up)
Continuing to emphasize the closure of emotions
'Cause all love ever brought me was misery
Summarizing that love has only brought suffering
I don't want (don't want) nobody to love me
Rejecting the desire for anyone to love them
Leave me alone and let me be lonely
Preferring solitude over being pursued for love
This way I'll know just where I stand
Choosing loneliness to have clarity about their emotional state
I'll never have to worry about love again
Ensuring freedom from worrying about love in the future
Lockin' up (lockin' up, lockin' up)
Repeating the decision to lock up emotions
Said I'm gonna throw away the key (throw away the key)
Affirming the intention to permanently close off from love
I'm gonna save myself from all this misery
Determined to save oneself from the pain of love
Lockin' up (lockin' up, lockin' up)
Reiterating the decision to lock up emotions
Said I'm gonna throw away the key
Confirming the commitment to throw away the key to their heart
I'm lockin' up (lockin' up my heart)
Emphasizing the closure of emotions and heart
I'm lockin' up (lockin' up my heart)
Repeated emphasis on locking up the heart
Yeah yeah yeah (lockin' up my heart)
Continuing to assert the decision to lock up and protect the heart
Yeah yeah yeah (lockin' up my heart)
-Yeah yeah yeah (lockin' up my heart)
-Yeah yeah yeah (lockin' up my heart)
-Yeah yeah yeah (lockin' up my heart)
