Too Emotional
Beborn Beton Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

You´re a dish, a honey, baby
But I guess you must've known, for sure
We were trying to save the world
We were about to light upon the final cure

Build like in a schoolboy´s dream
You got the power to make dreams come true
With your symmetry and size
You burst all seams
Breaking the hearts behind the screens
That bleed for you

I'm sorry, I did upset
You didn't get the story
I wrote you love-letters instead
I didn't mean to hurt you
Maybe we are too emotional
Too much heart too hard to handle

Can't ya hear the choir´s chant
They'll make you sing when they catch you
Take a hike and take a dive
Stay below, hold your breath
Til your lips turn blue

I'm sorry, I did upset
You didn't get the story
I wrote you love-letters instead
I didn't mean to hurt you
Maybe we are too emotional
Too much heart too hard to handle
Can't hide my tears from you
Maybe we are too emotional
Too much hard too hard to handle

Late, whenever I awake
Whenever I try to escape
I want to run, but I am getting nowhere
Back - began to realize
Shook off the ghosts and all the sorrows




Bothering my mind
I left them all behind

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to Beborn Beton's song "Too Emotional" reflect the singer's regret for having hurt someone they care about. The second verse talks about the power and beauty of the person the singer is addressing: "Build like in a schoolboy´s dream / You got the power to make dreams come true / With your symmetry and size / You burst all seams / Breaking the hearts behind the screens / That bleed for you". However, the person is also fragile and easily hurt. The singer apologizes for having hurt them and suggests that maybe they both are "too emotional" and have "too much heart too hard to handle".


The third verse seems to refer to the pressure and scrutiny that comes with being in the public eye: "Can't ya hear the choir´s chant / They'll make you sing when they catch you / Take a hike and take a dive / Stay below, hold your breath / Til your lips turn blue". The advice to "stay below" and "hold your breath" suggests that maybe the best way to survive and thrive in this environment is by staying out of the spotlight and trying to keep some distance from the public.


The song ends on a more positive note, with the singer expressing a desire to move on from their past mistakes and struggles: "Late, whenever I awake / Whenever I try to escape / I want to run, but I am getting nowhere / Back - began to realize / Shook off the ghosts and all the sorrows / Bothering my mind / I left them all behind".
