Between the Devil and the Deep Blue Sea
Here I Come Falling Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

I think it's getting cold outside
I think the world is creeping in
I hear the doves cry out
For help again

Every single pane is shattering
I can't help but smile as you shatter me
Glittering glass will fill me up

My love will never be enough

Down beneath this crystal moon
I know the sun will come up soon
And take away my pain tonight
And take away my pain tonight

Tonight the sky seemed brighter
Another night under this flame
I sit back and watch you
As you scream

Today the world was smaller
Another day without the stars
Between the devil and the deep blue sea
Excuse me while I bleed

Excuse me while I bleed

Every single pane is shattering
I can't help but smile as you shatter me
Glittering glass will fill me up
My love will never be enough

My love won't be enough

I need to know how this will end
I need to know if it's just a dream

Staring at this cloud-filled sky
I can't help but wonder why
We've let them win again
Let them win again

I think I hear you falling now
I can't seem to get past the sound
Of a love that threw it all away
Your love is loud and deafening

Your love is loud and deafening.

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of Here I Come Falling's song Between The Devil And The Deep Blue Sea speaks of a character's pain in a broken relationship, and their struggle to understand the reasons behind the fall. The singer notes that they feel their outside world is closing in on them and that they can hear the world crying out for help. Every pane of glass shatters inside them, but they can't stop smiling as the pain glitters like glass, filling them up. They are caught between the devil and the sea and feel as though they are bleeding.

The singer seems to be struggling with their attachment to someone who doesn't love them enough. They know they can't change things, but they need to understand what went wrong. They watch the other person screaming in pain and realise that they too have lost something they can't get back. They're staring at the sky, filled with clouds and wondering why they've let others win again. The line "I think I hear you falling now" is revealing because it presents the possibility that the partner whom the singer has been referring to is falling from a height - perhaps several floors up. This hints at the fact that the relationship might have been toxic, with the partner being a destructive influence on the singer's life.

I think I hear you crashing down, and I can't ignore the echoes of a love that failed

Your love is loud and deafening
Your love is painfully overwhelming
