Teenage Teardrops
Heartsrevolution Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Two steps and geronimo!
We got no fear
And a fate for danger
Too fast, too slow
Two steps and drown
No fear, no fear, no fear
Save me from the ceiling
Save me from myself
Nevermind, just save yourself
Keep your eyes on the prize
And your ear to the street
Or this game that you spit
Will become obsolete
Fuck the game, fuck the rules
Most of all, fuck you
It's just the way I feel
The more I smile the less I bruise
Don't stop and think about it
In your heart no one will doubt it
??
I can feel it breaking
Hang me from the ceiling
I got the feeling that it's my time to go
If today was my last day here
You're the last one that I'd wanna see
Is there anybody listening, anyone at all
'Cause I am too close to the edge
And I am afraid I'll fall
Not trying to be different
'Cause we're all the same
Please take what you need
Doctor, help fix my brain
Help fix my brain, help fix my brain
Fuck the shame, fuck the truth
Most of all, fuck you
It's just the way I feel
The more I smile the less I bruise
Hang me from the ceiling
I got the feeling that it's my time to go
If today was my last day here
You're the last one that I'd wanna see
And it doesn't ever feel right
No matter what it tastes like
So I'll take every last one of these pills
To kill what's inside of me
You can keep your fun, fun memories
Envision what I used to be
Teenage teardrops on my pillow
You reach for the stars but we end on the ceiling
Hang me from the ceiling
I got the feeling that it's my time to go
If today was my last day here
You're the last one that I'd wanna see
The lyrics of "Teenage Teardrops" by HEARTSREVOLUTION is the perfect embodiment of youthful recklessness and a disregard for societal norms. The song is about teenage angst and escapism, alluding to the feelings of displacement, frustration, and confusion that teenagers often feel. It suggests that danger and excitement go hand in hand, albeit not always in a good way. The lyrics stress the importance of living life on one's terms, even if it means going against the rules. The "save me from the ceiling" line conveys a sense of desperation to escape while also suggesting that the feeling of being trapped is self-inflicted.
The chorus of the song repeats the lines "hang me from the ceiling, I got the feeling that it's my time to go, if today was my last day here, you're the last one that I'd wanna see". It appears to be a message to someone seemingly important, but it could also represent the singer's need to escape the pressure of expectations placed on them. The song comes off as more of a cry for help from a troubled teen rather than a feel-good anthem. The angst and desperation are apparent in the lyrics, which may resonate with the younger audience.

Not too fast, too slow
Let's not rush into things, but let's not go too slow either
Two steps and geronimo!
Let's take the plunge and go for it!
We got no fear
We are bold and fearless
And a fate for danger
We are drawn to the thrill of danger
Too fast, too slow
We need to find the right balance
Two steps and drown
If we don't find that balance, we could sink
No fear, no fear, no fear
We need to overcome our fears and take risks
No fear, no fear, no fear
We cannot let fear hold us back
Save me from the ceiling
I feel trapped and overwhelmed, help me escape
Save me from myself
I am my own worst enemy, I need someone to save me from myself
Nevermind, just save yourself
Don't worry about me, focus on saving yourself
Keep your eyes on the prize
Stay focused on your goals and don't get distracted
And your ear to the street
Stay aware of what's happening around you and be ready to adapt
Or this game that you spit
If you don't stay alert, you'll get left behind in this ever-changing 'game'
Will become obsolete
You will become irrelevant or outdated
Fuck the game, fuck the rules
I reject the established norms and conventions
Most of all, fuck you
I am fed up with all the people who try to hold me back
It's just the way I feel
This is my honest opinion and emotion
The more I smile the less I bruise
I am hiding my pain and vulnerability with a smile
Don't stop and think about it
Don't overthink it, just trust your instincts
In your heart no one will doubt it
Believe in yourself and your desires, no one can question your heart
??
I can feel it breaking
I sense that something is about to change or break down
Hang me from the ceiling
I feel so low and beaten down, it's like being hung from the ceiling
I got the feeling that it's my time to go
I feel like my life or time on earth is coming to an end
If today was my last day here
If I only had one day left to live
You're the last one that I'd wanna see
You are the person I care about the most, the one I would want to spend my last moments with
Is there anybody listening, anyone at all
I feel so alone and unheard, does anyone care or understand?
'Cause I am too close to the edge
I am on the verge of a breakdown or disaster
And I am afraid I'll fall
I fear that I will lose control and fail
Not trying to be different
I'm not trying to stand out or be unique
'Cause we're all the same
We are all human with the same struggles and emotions
Please take what you need
I am willing to give whatever I have to help someone else
Doctor, help fix my brain
I need professional help or therapy to heal my mental health
Help fix my brain, help fix my brain
I am desperate for someone to fix the pain inside my head
Fuck the shame, fuck the truth
I reject the pressure to conform or be honest
Most of all, fuck you
I am angry at those who try to control or judge me
It's just the way I feel
My emotions are complex and hard to express
The more I smile the less I bruise
I am putting on a brave face but still hurting inside
And it doesn't ever feel right
Nothing seems to feel good or right
No matter what it tastes like
Even if it seems tempting, it won't satisfy me
So I'll take every last one of these pills
I will try anything to numb the pain or escape my reality
To kill what's inside of me
I want to destroy the parts of me that are causing me so much pain
You can keep your fun, fun memories
I don't care about happy memories or nostalgia
Envision what I used to be
I am struggling to accept and move past who I used to be
Teenage teardrops on my pillow
I am still haunted by my teenage pain and sadness
You reach for the stars but we end on the ceiling
No matter how much we strive for greatness, we often end up back where we started, feeling stuck and hopeless
Hang me from the ceiling
I feel so trapped and defeated, I want to give up
I got the feeling that it's my time to go
I feel like it's my time to die or leave this world
If today was my last day here
If I only had one more day to live
You're the last one that I'd wanna see
You are the one I care about the most, the one I want to be with in my final moments

Right years later, this song sticks with me. For reasons unknown, it pops into mind. Listening to Tokimonsta's "Midnight Menu" led to me discovering this awesome song. I'm not much a fan of Alphabet and associated companies, but I do acknowledge their algorithms have introduced me to some of my favorite artists.
