Porcelain Heart
Nicola Roberts Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Where do I belong?
You keep spinning me round, round, round
Don't want to come down, down, down
Love to play along in this harmony
Hear them sing our song
You keep making me dance, dance, dance
We got them in a trance, trance, trance
As good as gold
A traded soul
but I wouldn't change a single thing
My only friend
Let's dance again, but
Please don't break my porcelain heart
Never felt so much electricity
You shot her down don't do that to me
bang, bang, bang
Just because you can, can, can
We kicked off so quick
too much chemistry
I need my seatbelt fixed
You're making me learn, learn, learn
to love the way it burns, burns, burns
As good as gold
A traded soul
but I wouldn't change a single thing
My only friend
Let's dance again, but
Please don't break my porcelain heart
You're breaking my
As good as gold
A traded soul
but I wouldn't change a single thing
My only friend
Let's dance again, but
Please don't break my porcelain heart
The lyrics of Nicola Roberts's song "Porcelain Heart" depict a woman who has found herself caught up in a passionate ups-and-downs relationship, one that she compares to the sound of a melody. She describes the intensity of her love as being "like electricity" and the chemistry between them as "too much." The woman is afraid of getting hurt, and she asks her lover not to break her heart that she sees as fragile as porcelain. She values her relationship with this person, but she's afraid of being hurt as her feelings seem to be more intense than her lover's.
The lyrics suggest that the woman is fearful of giving her all to someone who seemed hesitant to reciprocate. She seems to be holding back, fearing that she might fall in love too hard, only to be hurt in the end. However, she's also afraid of losing the person she has feelings for. She describes her heart as a porcelain, a breakable object that could shatter if there's too much or too little tension.
Overall, "Porcelain Heart" is an emotional song that depicts the struggle of being trapped in a passionate but potentially destructive relationship. It speaks to the fragility of the heart that sometimes comes with love, and the fear of being let down or being hurt when we entrust our feelings to someone else.
