Wicked Game
Anton Ishutin feat. Deniz Reno Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
no one could save me but you
It's strange what desire will make foolish people do
And I'd never dreamed that I'd need somebody like you
And I'd never dreamed that I'd need somebody like you
No, I don't wanna fall in love
-This world is always going to break your heart-
-This world is always going to break your heart-
with you
-This world is always going to break your heart-
What a wicked game to play
To make me feel this way
What a wicked thing to do
To let me dream of you
What a wicked thing to say
You never felt this way
What a wicked thing you do
To make me dream of you
No, I don't wanna fall in love
-This world is always going to break your heart-
No, I don't wanna fall in love
-This world is always going to break your heart-
With you
The world was on fire,
No one could save me but you
It's strange what desire will make foolish people do
No, and I'd never dreamed that I'd love somebody like you
And I'd never dream that I'd lose somebody like you, no
And now I wanna fall in love
-This world is always going to break your heart-
And now I wanna fall in lust
This world is always going to break your heart
My love
-This world is always going to break your heart-
My...
-This world is always going to break your heart-
My time
-This world is always going to break your heart-
And nobody loves
No one
HIM - Wicked game
The lyrics of Anton Ishutin feat. Deniz Reno's song Wicked Game speaks of a tumultuous love affair that has left the singer feeling vulnerable and exposed. The world around them seems to be in chaos, with everything on fire and no one being able to save them except for the person they are in love with. It's a strange feeling to be so dependent on someone else, and the singer acknowledges that desire can make people do foolish things. They never thought they would need someone so badly, yet here they are, unable to imagine life without this person.
However, the singer also recognizes the risks of falling in love. This world will always break your heart, and they are afraid of getting hurt. They resist falling in love, despite their overwhelming emotions, because they know it will only lead to more pain. The repeated line, "This world is always going to break your heart," serves as a cautionary warning, a reminder of the inevitable pain that comes with love.
The chorus of the song speaks of the wickedness of love. It's a game that people play, one that leaves the singer feeling vulnerable and betrayed. The object of their affection is playing a wicked game with them, making them feel things that they know will only lead to heartbreak. It's confusing and painful, but the singer can't help but dream of this person, even when they know it's not good for them.
Overall, the lyrics of Wicked Game capture the tumultuous nature of love and the pain that comes with it. It's a cautionary tale of the risks of falling in love, and the dangers of succumbing to desire.

This just takes Chris Isaac's original to a completely different level. My level in fact. I've always loved Wicked Games but it carries a very melancholy feel in both tempo and key. Now, I can get into it anytime despite my being overjoyed. Man I love this mix!!!! Incredible work!!! Thank you!!! π

Really good; as always. Sad to only have found this 7 years AFTER creation. Seductive. Catchy. Inspiring. Beautiful.

This is such a good track and a superb video to go with it - as a man of culture myself, there is always something hypnotic about a beautiful woman. 10/10
