Shape of my Heart
Robin Schulz Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

When you say you want me, I just lose control
I'm out of my body, feels like vertigo
High up on the ceilin', ready to explode
My hands, they lose all feelin' when I hold you close

Keep me in the dark when you love me harder
Smash my heart like a pi-inata
The sweetest scar tearin' me apart
Yeah, you smash my heart, yeah, you smash my heart
Keep me in the dark when you love me harder
Smash my heart like a pi-inata
The sweetest scar tearin' me apart
Yeah, you smash my heart, yeah, you smash my heart

Like a pinata
Pinata
Pinata
When you smash my heart, when you smash my heart

it's always a rush when we collide
Open me up, there's magic inside
Lost in the crush, I come alive
When you smash my heart, when you smash my heart

Keep me in the dark when you love me harder
Smash my heart like a pi-inata
The sweetest scar tearin' me apart
Yeah, you smash my heart, yeah, you smash my heart
Keep me in the dark when you love me harder
Smash my heart like a pi-inata
The sweetest scar tearin' me apart
Yeah, you smash my heart, yeah, you smash my heart

Like a, like a
Like a, like a
Like a, like a
Like a, like a
Like a, like a
Like a, like a
Yeah, you smash my heart, yeah, you smash my heart

Keep me in the dark when you love me harder
Smash my heart like a pi-inata
The sweetest scar tearin' me apart
Yeah, you smash my heart, yeah, you smash my heart

Like a pinata
Pinata
Pinata
When you smash my heart, when you smash my heart
Pinata
Pinata




Pinata
When you smash my heart, when you smash my heart

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of Robin Schulz's song "Shape of my Heart" portray the intense and overwhelming emotions experienced in a passionate and tumultuous relationship. The singer expresses losing control and feeling a sense of detachment from their body when their partner expresses their desire for them. It's described as a sensation of vertigo, where they feel high up on the ceiling, ready to explode. However, instead of feeling comforted or loved, they feel a loss of sensation in their hands when they hold their partner close.


The chorus emphasizes the contradictory nature of the relationship. It's a plea to be kept in the dark, where their partner loves them harder but also smashes their heart like a piñata. This reference to a piñata symbolizes the painful and destructive nature of their love. Despite the emotional scars and the pain tearing them apart, the singer finds a sort of addictive magic in the collision with their partner, feeling alive in the midst of the crush.


Overall, "Shape of my Heart" portrays a complex blend of intense desire, vulnerability, and inherent pain in a passionate relationship.

He deals the cards as a meditation
And those he plays never suspect
He doesn't play for the money he wins
He don't play for respect

He deals the cards to find the answer
The sacred geometry of chance
The hidden law of a probable outcome
The numbers lead a dance

I know that the spades are the swords of a soldier
I know that the clubs are weapons of war
I know that diamonds mean money for this art
But that's not the shape of my heart

He may play the Jack of diamonds
He may lay the Queen of spades
He may conceal a King in his hand
While the memory of it fades


I know that the spades are the swords of a soldier
I know that the clubs are weapons of war
I know that diamonds mean money for this art
But that's not the shape of my heart
That's not the shape, the shape of my heart

And if I told you that I loved you
You'd maybe think there's something wrong
I'm not a man of too many faces
The mask I wear is one

But those who speak know nothing
And find out to their cost
Like those who curse their luck in too many places
And those who fear a loss

I know that the spades are the swords of a soldier
I know that the clubs are weapons of war
I know that diamonds mean money for this art
But that's not the shape of my heart
That's not the shape of my heart
That's not the shape, the shape of my heart
