Blackheart
Deuxvolt Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Girl: Why do not you call me love?
Boy: What is love? Is just a chemical reaction...


Drowning... deceiving and bleeding
best wishes, your words or lies?
Feelings are chemical processes
love works with dopamine from the brain

When trust was blind
for you it was not good enough [Can’t see the light?]
Don’t play with my mind
black winter will come inside [Can’t stop the pain?]


The night will come down
taking now this broken wings [You blackheart!]
The days will pass by
wishing what can never be [You blackheart!]
The smoke will drift up
from ashes of a shattered dream [You blackheart!]
The past is gone with
just another dark piece...
...of Blackheart


Break me and shake me ...to hate me!
deal with it: there’s no love in there.
Whispering voices creep all around
cardiac pulse just pumps your blood alive

I've done my time
retracing mistakes on and on [Can’t see the light?]
you want to go back
but memories fade to a black hole [Can’t stop the pain?]


I’m killing now my romance,
i only need to stay away from you...
I’m killing now my romance,
I’m done with dreaming that never comes true...
I’m killing now my romance,
the feeding of illusion’s over soon
I’m killing now my romance,
i only need to stay away from you...

Amleto: "...I loved you once."




Ofelia: "Indeed, my lord, you made me believe so"
Amleto: "You should not have believed me [...] I loved you not."

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to Deuxvolt's song Blackheart convey a message about the realities of love and how it can be just a chemical reaction in the brain. The conversation between the boy and the girl at the beginning of the song shows how the boy may not believe in love as anything other than a biological process. The lyrics then delve into the pain of a failed relationship and the feeling of being deceived and manipulated. The chorus repeats the phrase "You blackheart!" emphasizing the betrayal and hurt caused by the other person.


The bridge of the song describes the process of moving on from a past relationship and retracing mistakes. The repetition of "Can’t see the light?" and "Can’t stop the pain?" highlights the struggle to heal from a broken heart. The last verse conveys a sense of closure as the singer narrates how he/she is killing their romance and ending their illusions of a romantic relationship. The reference to Hamlet and Ophelia's conversation about love could be interpreted as a commentary on how love can be an illusion and lead to pain.
