Meltdown
Nicolas Hannig feat. Ghostpoet Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Thinking it ain't the right time
Egg shell hearts just cracked
Crying on the train
Fearful of the facts
The sorrows and the morals
And the Chinatown whispers that would
Now compassion I don't lack
Just heart filled with runner beans
And feet like in running shoes
And yes it was just you and me
Just fly
Trap doors are bound
No turning round
Set course for the rocks mate, chin up
Watch us sink without a sound
Watch us sink without a sound
I think we're on the meltdown
I feel it in my bones, you know
I don't feel right
I don't feel right
I think we're on the meltdown
I feel it in my bones, you know
I don't feel right
I don't feel right
So now I'm second guessing yes and no
Blood pumps regular
But skin feels icy cold
And flights old, are melting with the past
So it won't be forever then
I can't do forever friends
Cause something in my character just takes a hold
And throws me out the car
Maybe if I looked afar
I could stop the catastrophe
But you and me weren't meant to be
And someone somewhere knew it from the start
Now it's love that soaks my heart
I contemplate the dark
And superglue the memories and better days
The times that made you laugh
The times that made you laugh
I think we're on the meltdown
I feel it in my bones, you know
I don't feel right
I don't feel right
I think we're on the meltdown
I feel it in my bones, you know
I don't feel right
I don't feel right
I think we're on the meltdown
I feel it in my bones, you know
I don't feel right
I don't feel right
I think we're on the meltdown
I feel it in my bones, you know
I don't feel right
I don't feel right
I don't mean to disappoint and tear apart
But baby it's my heart
This time I got to follow it
I don't mean to disappoint and tear apart
But baby it's my heart
This time I got to follow it
This time I got to follow it
This time I got to follow it
This time I got to follow it
This time I got to follow it
The lyrics to Nicolas Hannig feat. Ghostpoet's song Meltdown depict someone experiencing a crisis. In the beginning, the person is hesitant to take action, feeling that it may not be the right time for change. They are also affected by the emotional turmoil of those around them, as evidenced by the "egg shell hearts just cracked, crying on the train." The person expresses compassion but also feels limited and stuck, with "feet like in running shoes" that imply a desire to escape.
The song's title, "Meltdown," is repeated several times throughout the lyrics, and it is clear that the person is feeling like they are on the verge of a breakdown. They feel a sense of impending doom and are "second guessing yes and no." However, they ultimately make the decision to follow their heart, even if it means disappointing and tearing apart others. The song ends on a note of determination, with the repeated declaration that "this time I got to follow it."
Overall, the lyrics paint a vivid picture of someone going through a difficult time and struggling with their emotions and responsibilities. The mood is melancholy but ultimately empowering, with the person choosing to prioritize their own well-being and desires.
Line by Line Meaning
I was hesitant at first
At the beginning, I felt unsure about taking action
Thinking it ain't the right time
I believed that it was not the appropriate moment to act
Egg shell hearts just cracked
People with sensitive hearts are now upset and vulnerable
Crying on the train
People were expressing their emotions while commuting
Fearful of the facts
I was afraid of the truth
The sorrows and the morals
Sadness and ethical principles that need to be considered
And the Chinatown whispers that would
Rumors that would be spread among the group
Obviously be muttered by the dogs
Comments that would definitely be voiced by some members of the group
Now compassion I don't lack
I possess empathy
Just heart filled with runner beans
My heart is full of energy and vigor
And feet like in running shoes
I have the ability to move quickly and efficiently
And yes it was just you and me
We were the only ones involved
Just fly
Let's take off
Trap doors are bound
We are closing ourselves off from some possibilities
No turning round
We have decided to move forward and not look back
Set course for the rocks mate, chin up
We are headed towards a difficult situation, but we need to remain hopeful and strong
Watch us sink without a sound
We will fail without making any noise
I think we're on the meltdown
I believe we are experiencing a catastrophic failure
I feel it in my bones, you know
I have a strong feeling that this is happening
I don't feel right
I feel uneasy
So now I'm second guessing yes and no
I am uncertain about the decisions I made
Blood pumps regular
My blood is flowing normally
But skin feels icy cold
I feel a chill despite having a normal heartbeat
And flights old, are melting with the past
Old memories are fading away
So it won't be forever then
This situation won't last forever
I can't do forever friends
I cannot pretend that our friendship will last forever
Cause something in my character just takes a hold
There is something in my nature that makes me act a certain way
And throws me out the car
It makes me abandon my original plans
Maybe if I looked afar
Perhaps if I had looked ahead
I could stop the catastrophe
I could have prevented the disaster
But you and me weren't meant to be
Our relationship was not meant to work out
And someone somewhere knew it from the start
Someone knew from the beginning that it wouldn't work
Now it's love that soaks my heart
My heart is now filled with love
I contemplate the dark
I reflect on difficult situations
And superglue the memories and better days
I hold on tight to the good memories and happier times
The times that made you laugh
The moments that brought you joy
I don't mean to disappoint and tear apart
I do not intend to disappoint or hurt anyone
But baby it's my heart
I must follow my heart
This time I got to follow it
It is important for me to trust my instincts and follow my heart
