F.I.X Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
One more hour, maybe this can change
Oh, can you numb the pain
'Cause it runs deep in constant waves
How's it gonna work when we can't admit it
Pretend like we don't know now
Tried to drag it out, but we beared it livin'
And, there's nothing that I can say at all
You can't hold my heart no more
And I'm waiting for your arms to fall
You can't hold my heart no more
Yeah, there's nothing I can say at all
You can't hold my heart no more
And I'm waiting for your arms to fall
You can't hold my heart no more
We made city sound
Had a fire, but it's dying down
We tried to make a way
But we got lost and swept away
How's it gonna work when we can't admit it
Pretend that we don't know now
Tried to drag it out, but we beared it livin'
We can let it go now
Yeah, there's nothing I can say at all
You can't hold my heart no more
And I'm waiting for your arms to fall
You can't hold my heart no more
I know you're tryin' to hold on close
But it's slipping through your fingertips
And I know you tryin' to hold on close
Yeah, there's nothing I can say at all
You can't hold my heart no more
And I'm waiting for your arms to fall
You can't hold my heart no more
The lyrics of F.I.X's song "My Heart" speak of a failing relationship that has lost its spark and the struggle to let go of what was once a strong connection. The singer asks their partner if they can stay awake for just one more hour, hoping that things might change, but ultimately acknowledges that the pain is too deep to ignore. The relationship has been dragged out, but it's time to let go and move on.
The second verse of the song talks about the couple's attempts to keep the relationship alive but failing to do so. They made "city sounds" and had "a fire" between them, but ultimately it's "dying down." The lyrics suggest that the couple has lost their way and are now lost and "swept away." The chorus repeats the idea that the singer's heart is no longer in the relationship and that they are waiting for their partner's arms to fall, symbolizing an end to their attempts to hold on.
The lyrics of "My Heart" are relatable to anyone who has been in a struggling relationship where the love has faded. The song's arrangement is also notable, featuring a mix of upbeat and melancholic musical styles that mirror the emotions expressed in the lyrics.
