Forever Scarlet
Drop Dead Gorgeous Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Is this my conscience making my heart beat?
We are so over..
Is this what you call desperate?
Well I'm desperate for you.
She's all I ever wanted, and I'm just a face.
The truth will set you free.
Do you believe in love at first site?
The lyrics of "Forever Scarlet" by Drop Dead Gorgeous delve into the obsession and desperation that comes with love. The singer is questioning whether wearing his heart on his sleeve and expressing his true feelings is what the person he desires really wants. He wonders if his conscience is the real reason for his heart beating fast, or if it's love. Despite the fact that their relationship is over, he still yearns for her and feels desperate for her love.
The singer admits that she is all he ever wanted, and he feels like he is just a face in the crowd to her. However, the truth is that he believes his feelings for her are authentic and he wishes that he could convince her of that. He poses the question of whether love at first sight exists, as he is so captivated by her that he thinks she's beautiful even if she were to burn alive.
Overall, the lyrics convey a sense of vulnerability and desperation in love. The singer is willing to put everything on the line for someone who may not feel the same way about him. This song speaks to the intense emotional rollercoaster that comes with loving someone who may not reciprocate those feelings fully.

I appreciate so much the historical take of DDG. Now that i'm 30 years old I can truly appreciate their work, which I think is amazing. Both conceptually and musically.
