Rolling in the Deep
Reinhart Haley Lyrics

There's a fire starting in my heart
The singer feels intense passion and emotion building up inside them.

Reaching a fever pitch, and it's bringing me out the dark
The emotions inside the singer are becoming so intense that they are starting to be expressed externally.

Finally I can see you crystal clear
The singer has come to a clear understanding of something, possibly a relationship or a situation involving another person.

Go ahead and sell me out and I'll lay your shit bare
The artist is warning someone not to betray them or reveal anything negative about them, as the artist will retaliate with equally negative information about that person.

See how I leave with every piece of you
The artist is saying that they will take everything the other person has to offer and leave nothing behind.

Don't underestimate the things that I will do
The singer is warning the other person that they should not take the singer lightly or think that they will not follow through on their threats.

The scars of your love remind me of us
The singer is reflecting on past experiences with the other person, particularly the emotional pain caused by the ending of their relationship.

They keep me thinking that we almost had it all

I can't help feeling
The artist is acknowledging that their emotions are hard to control or suppress.

We could have had it all

Rolling in the deep
The phrase 'rolling in the deep' likely refers to being fully submerged in intense emotion or trouble.

(Tears are gonna fall, rolling in the deep)
The artist is predicting that there will be a lot of tears shed as they go through this difficult emotional experience.

You had my heart inside of your hand
The other person had a significant amount of power over the singer's emotional well-being.

(You're gonna wish you never had met me)
The singer is confident that the other person will regret ever getting involved with them due to the emotional turmoil it has caused.

And you played it to the beat
The other person manipulated the singer's emotions to their own advantage and perhaps ignored the true feelings behind their actions.

Baby, I have no story to be told
The artist is saying that they don't have any interesting or dramatic events or experiences to talk about.

But I've heard one of you
The artist acknowledges that they have heard a story or version of events from the other person's perspective.

And I'm gonna make your head burn
The singer is saying that they will take action to get revenge or make the other person feel intense emotions like they are currently experiencing.

Think of me in the depths of your despair
The singer wants the other person to remember them during difficult times, perhaps as a way of getting revenge or maintaining a sense of emotional power over them.

Making a home down there
The artist envisions themselves 'making a home' in the depths of the other person's despair or emotional pain, perhaps as a way of continuing to exert emotional control over them.

As mine sure won't be shared
The artist is saying that they won't be willing to share their own emotional pain or vulnerability with the other person as they have done in the past.

Throw your soul through every open door
This line could be interpreted as encouraging someone to give their all to life and pursue every opportunity that comes their way.

Count your blessings to find what you look for
The singer is saying that focusing on gratitude and appreciating what one already has can help them find what they are looking for in life.

Turn my sorrow into treasured gold

You pay me back in kind and reap just what you sow
This line suggests that the way someone treats others will come back to them in the same way, either positively or negatively, possibly implying that the person who caused the singer's pain will experience suffering in return.

It all, it all, it all
This repetition of the word 'it all' could be interpreted as emphasizing the all-encompassing nature of the singer's emotions and experiences.
