Heartbreaker
Must Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I'm as mad as you are obsessively completely
Scouring the backwoods in a mind-warped frenzy
Hallelujah the night is white at the deep end
Heartbreaker
My God and saviour

There's no such thing as home no
Except for one place I've heard of
Brace yourself for the ride of your life
Then again hang loose there's naught that you can do

Heartbreaker
My God and saviour
Heartbreaker (there's no such thing as home)
And I'm going to take you (there's no such thing as home)

And when my faith is in tatters
And I'm squirming uneasy
That's when I know
I'm finding my way

Heartbreaker
My God and saviour




Heartbreaker (we're all going to die anyway)
And I'm going to take you (we're all going to die anyway)

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to Must's song "Heartbreaker" are cryptic and enigmatic, but they seem to paint a picture of a protagonist who is lost and searching for meaning in a world that offers none. The first verse describes the singer's state of mind: "I'm as mad as you are obsessively completely/Scouring the backwoods in a mind-warped frenzy." This suggests a frenzied, desperate search for something that may not exist. The second verse adds to this sense of aimlessness, with the line "There's no such thing as home no/Except for one place I've heard of." It seems that the singer is seeking a sense of belonging and purpose, but cannot find it.


The chorus of the song, "Heartbreaker/My God and saviour" further emphasizes the singer's sense of desperation and searching for something to believe in. The repetition of the phrase "we're all going to die anyway" in the final lines of the song further adds to the sense of futility and despair. However, the last line of the song, "And I'm going to take you," could be interpreted in different ways - either as the singer taking someone on this seemingly fruitless journey with them, or perhaps as a more ominous suggestion of the singer taking someone to their ultimate demise.


Overall, the lyrics to "Heartbreaker" are muddled with a sense of angst, despair, and aimlessness, but with a hint of determination to continue searching for meaning regardless of the uncertainty and fear that come with it.
