Relic Hearts Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I can smell on your breath all the whiskey you've had
And I know you think I believe you
What's it like to know that you're so fucking see through?
As you clothes fall to the floor you grab my attention
But if you lose anymore, I'm yours.
Like a dancing nightmare in my dreams
So dysfunctionally
And honestly I'm starting to see
That I can't trust myself with me.
You drag me to the bed, my bottom lip between your teeth, we both know what you want
As you slide beneath the sheets
And I know I can't escape the way you tease me
You do the things that make most girls uneasy.
Like a dancing nightmare in my dreams
We swing, we sway,
So dysfunctionally
And honestly I'm starting to see
That I can't trust myself with me.
I'm sorry I tried but through all of your lies I know you're not worth my time and save all your bullshit cause no one believes it we all see through you
I'm sorry I tried but through all of your lies I know you're not worth my time.
Like a dancing nightmare in my dreams
We swing, we sway,
So dysfunctionally
And honestly I'm starting to see
That I can't trust myself with me.
The lyrics to Relic Hearts's song "Trust" tell the story of a dysfunctional relationship where one partner can see through the other's lies and manipulations, yet they struggle to escape the toxic cycle they are caught in. The opening lines of the song immediately set the tone, as the singer describes the scent of whiskey on their partner's breath and ponders what it's like to be so transparent. Despite the deception, the physical attraction between the two is undeniable, as evidenced by the description of their clothes falling off and the partner's teasing behavior. However, the chorus reveals the singer's internal struggle with this relationship, as they compare it to a "dancing nightmare" that they can't escape, and acknowledge that they "can't trust myself with me." The song ends with a declaration that the singer knows their partner is not worth their time, but the fact that they still tried to make it work suggests that they are still grappling with their emotions.
