Royal music Paris Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I know we said we would take it slow, And I know we said we wouldn't fall in love, But I was weak, And she was strong.
She said it's not that you weren't enough, It's just that, I don't even think I can fall in love.
So please, keep in touch.
O-o-oh They say if you love her, let her go, But they have never felt this way before. '
Cause I, didn't even get a choice.
O-o-oh And I'm staring up, At the clouds, My vision is turning round and round.
Is this what they call A breakdown?
And I'm bleedin' When I should be healin' All because I'm dreaming Of when we were together.
And I'm bleedin' When I should be healin' All because I'm feelin' A way I shouldn't feel.
We agreed that we Would still be friends, So the pain I feel will never end.
Yet you say that you're fine.
And now the smile That used to heal me, Cuts me deep with regret and envy. '
Cause I can't say that you're mine.
They say move on and you learn the truth, But they aren't dealing with this open wound.
This fool gave his heart much too soon.
And I'm staring up, At the clouds.
My vision is turning round and round.
Is this what they call A breakdown?




And I'm bleedin' When I should be healin' All because I'm dreamin' Of when we were together.
And I'm bleedin' When I should be healin' All because I'm feelin' A way I shouldn't feel.

Overall Meaning

The song "Deeper" by Royal music Paris is a heart-wrenching ballad about heartbreak and unrequited love. The first verse starts with the acknowledgement that the two parties involved decided to take things slow and not fall in love, but the singer eventually realizes that he has caught feelings while the other person has not. The line "But I was weak, And she was strong" implies that the singer couldn't help but fall for this person, while the other person was able to resist those feelings.


In the chorus, the singer is struggling to come to terms with the fact that he didn't have a choice in the matter. The line "They say if you love her, let her go, But they have never felt this way before" suggests that the common advice of letting go of someone you love doesn't apply to this situation, as it feels impossible to move on. The repeating line "Is this what they call A breakdown?" could refer to the feeling of being overwhelmed with emotion and the inability to cope.


The second verse shows the aftermath of the situation, with the two parties agreeing to still be friends, but the singer is still struggling to move on. The line "So the pain I feel will never end" highlights the fact that the singer is still in love with this person and the pain of not being able to be with them will always be present. The final lines "This fool gave his heart much too soon" suggest regret for falling too quickly and not being able to control their emotions.
