Love Burns
Gods Paparazzi feat. Myah Marie Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I can't breathe and my lungs just squeeze so tight
I remember a time when I thought that you cared
I dismembered my mind when you stopped being there
Yeah I got problems and so do you too
But I never knew it would come down to this
Locked up in my room like a cell for my soul
Beating me up in a world so cold
All alone in hell you were my angel of the morning
Dawn, Had it all, Now it's gone
And I try to feel again what I felt back then
It's like the hips of a snake, Non-existent
Or like the edge of a sphere, Not there
I stare up into nowhere
Hours and oh yeah you thought I was fucked up then?
Look at me now, I'm a basket case full of demon hounds screaming loud
Fuck what they say, Fuck what you heard
To the 3rd degree I guess I had to learn love burns
I try to get over you but I fail
Like a shadow following the darkest trail
Everyone thinks I'm high, Don't eat, Don't sleep
Just drink like a fish in the sea, Down the sink
All my plans to be a better man all washed up
I met another mate but my fate got crossed up
You were the one I was supposed to catch
You were the one that always made me laugh
You were the one sex was the best
You were the one that made me breakfast
You were the one who needs my touch
You were the one I need so much
You were the one that got me lovedrunk
You were the one that got me sober
You were the one who made me think
You were the one who was my shrink
You came along and my whole world turn
I guess I had to learn love burns
The lyrics to "Love Burns" by Gods Paparazzi explores the theme of heartbreak and loss. The verses express the pain of feeling abandoned and betrayed by a loved one who was once considered an angel in one's life. The singer is struggling to cope with the intense emotions that come with a breakup, leading them to feel suffocated and trapped in their own despair. The chorus, "Fuck what they say, Fuck what you heard, To the 3rd degree I guess I had to learn love burns," emphasizes the idea that pain is an inevitable consequence of love, and the only way to move forward is to accept and learn from it.
The lyrics paint a vivid picture of the singer's state of mind, immersing the listeners in the intensity of their emotions. The use of metaphors such as "locked up in my room like a cell for my soul" and "a shadow following the darkest trail" add depth and texture to the description of the emotional turmoil. The repetition of "you were the one" in the final verse drives home the point that the singer feels incomplete without their former partner and highlights the depth of their connection.

Sometimes I wake up in the middle of the night
There are moments when I suddenly wake up from sleep in the middle of the night
I can't breathe and my lungs just squeeze so tight
I feel like my breath is stuck and my chest feels tight
I remember a time when I thought that you cared
I recall a time when I believed that you had genuine concern for me
I dismembered my mind when you stopped being there
I felt like my mind was being torn apart when you left my life
Yeah I got problems and so do you too
It's true that I have my own set of issues, and so do you
But I never knew it would come down to this
I never anticipated that our situation would reach this level of difficulty
Locked up in my room like a cell for my soul
I feel trapped in my room, like it's a prison for my soul
Beating me up in a world so cold
The harsh reality of this world is causing me emotional pain
All alone in hell you were my angel of the morning
Even though I felt alone and miserable, you seemed like a ray of hope in the morning
Dawn, Had it all, Now it's gone
I experienced positive changes in my life, but now it seems like everything has been lost
And I try to feel again what I felt back then
I attempt to recapture the emotions and feelings from the past
It's like the hips of a snake, Non-existent
Trying to feel love again is futile, like trying to find non-existent hips on a snake
Or like the edge of a sphere, Not there
It's as if I'm searching for something that doesn't exist, like the edge of a sphere
I stare up into nowhere
I gaze aimlessly into an empty space
Hours and oh yeah you thought I was fucked up then?
I've been in this state for hours now, and do you remember when you thought I was crazy?
Look at me now, I'm a basket case full of demon hounds screaming loud
I've completely fallen apart and I feel like I'm surrounded by vicious demons that are relentlessly tormenting me
Fuck what they say, Fuck what you heard
I don't care about what others are saying or what you've heard about me
To the 3rd degree I guess I had to learn love burns
After going through intense pain and suffering, I finally understand that love can be incredibly painful
I try to get over you but I fail
Despite my efforts to move on from you, I can't seem to succeed
Like a shadow following the darkest trail
My memories of you seem to be haunting me, like a shadow following me in the darkest of places
Everyone thinks I'm high, Don't eat, Don't sleep
People assume that I'm on drugs since I can't seem to eat or sleep properly
Just drink like a fish in the sea, Down the sink
I've resorted to drinking heavily and excessively, like a fish swimming in the sea that's headed towards the bottom of a sink
All my plans to be a better man all washed up
My aspirations to become a better person have all gone down the drain
I met another mate but my fate got crossed up
I found someone else I wanted to be with, but something went wrong and our fate didn't align
You were the one I was supposed to catch
I thought that you were the one I was meant to end up with
You were the one that always made me laugh
You always had a way of making me burst out in laughter
You were the one sex was the best
Our sexual experiences were the most passionate and satisfactory with you
You were the one that made me breakfast
You were the one who would make me breakfast in bed, showing your affection in little ways
You were the one who needs my touch
You were the one who craved my touch and physical presence
You were the one I need so much
I needed you in my life more than anything else
You were the one that got me lovedrunk
My love for you was so potent and intoxicating that it felt like being under the influence of a strong drug
You were the one that got me sober
You were the one who grounded me and made me feel stable, as if I was sober from a drunken state
You were the one who made me think
You were the one who challenged me intellectually and made me think deeply
You were the one who was my shrink
You were the one who provided emotional support and acted like a therapist to me
You came along and my whole world turn
When you entered my life, my entire world changed for the better
I guess I had to learn love burns
Unfortunately, I had to go through immense pain and heartbreak to understand that love can hurt a lot
