Words Of Love
Anna Ternheim Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Any way you get them through
Words of love trouble me
Feels like someone's watching me
Loving hands around my throat
Bob what are you speaking of?
Sounds like panic in my head
All around me
Speak about you
Always find me
And remind me of you
I've erased every line you wrote
Words you stole, my quotes of love
Paper pins over flow
In my head and on my floor
Words of love
Words of love
All around me
Speak about you
Always find me
To remind me of you
To remind me of you
The song "Words of Love" by Anna Ternheim explores the theme of love and its complexities. The opening lines; "Words of love sent by you, any way you get them through" suggest that the song is about communication in relationships. The singer receives messages of love, but they "trouble" her as they suggest that someone is watching her. The line "loving hands around my throat" indicates that love can sometimes feel oppressive, and the singer feels as though she is suffocating under the weight of the message.
The line "Bob what are you speaking of?" suggests that the message is not entirely clear, and there is a sense of panic and confusion in the singer's mind. She feels controlled by love, as though it is a puppeteer that pulls her strings. This is illustrated when she sings "Tie the strings and I play dead," indicating that the love in her life has boxed her in, leaving her feeling lifeless.
The chorus speaks of how the singer cannot escape the messages of love. They surround her, reminding her of someone she thought she had erased from her life. The lines "words you stole, my quotes of love, paper pins overflow" seem to indicate that the love that was once cherished has now turned into a burden, taking up space in her head and her life.

Played Downpour back in 2012 and it's 2022 wow how did I end up back to the games I loved when I was growing up. And the music 🎶 SH vibes cheers DJ Rick. I hope Silent Hill stays Silent the games were awesome all of them. I would love to see a remake one day but tbh it doesn't need it masterpieces of survival horror so stay Silent.

His secret is that he took the punishment for others' crimes, and overcame like a true champion.
