Hearts In Halves
Cub Sport Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

One night under the lights
I want you but it's too right
I'm torturing myself
Watch me kiss someone else
I hate myself right now
I'd change but I don't know how
I'll dance it out for now
Baby, it's a cruel game, I'm playing with myself
And I'm laughing it off but I do not know myself
Baby, it's so cruel and I know it makes no sense
For me to tell you we should just be friends

One hand up in the air like everything feels perfect here
Two hearts in halves, baby, it's been years
Three days and we blaze, baby, let's disappear
Four more, I'm yours, baby, I'm right here

One day under the sun
You feel me come undone
Something 'bout these long drives
And these summer nights
You know it just feels right, you know it just feels right
And so you hold me tight

One hand up in the air like everything feels perfect here
Two hearts in halves, baby, it's been years
Three days and we blaze, baby, let's disappear
Four more, I'm yours, baby, I'm right here
One hand up in the air like everything feels perfect here
Two hearts in halves, baby, it's been years
Three days and we blaze, baby, let's disappear
Four more, I'm yours, baby, I'm right here

Both arms up in the air
Your hands run through my hair
I learned about your body, how much I need you here




I think you set me free, think you know what I need
Home is where you're with me

Overall Meaning

"Hearts in Halves" by Cub Sport is a song about struggling with conflicting emotions, particularly when it comes to relationships. The first verse describes a scene where the singer is at a party and wants someone, but can't be with them because it wouldn't feel right. They are torturing themselves by kissing someone else instead and feeling self-hatred. But they dance it out for now, seemingly pushing their feelings aside. In the chorus, the singer acknowledges that the situation is a cruel game they are playing with themselves, and they are laughing it off but they do not know how to reconcile their feelings. They suggest that they should just be friends, but the emotions are too complex to simply dismiss.


The second verse shifts to a different setting, where the singer is with someone under the sun. They feel undone and vulnerable, but something about the long drives and summer nights feels right. The other person holds them tight, and they feel free. The chorus repeats, emphasizing the conflicting emotions of feeling perfect in the moment but also feeling like their hearts are in halves. The final lines of the song suggest that being with the other person is where the singer feels at home.


Overall, "Hearts in Halves" is a poignant exploration of the complexities of relationships and emotions. The singer is torn between what they want and what feels right, and they don't know how to navigate those conflicting feelings. The only thing that feels certain is the connection they have with the other person.
