Where Love Lies Bleeding
Satellites Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
This is where you and I end I will not come back here again
Pick up the pieces one by one
Stick them back together again
Put on my Sunday best to cover the cracks
Where love lies bleeding
Split the atom one by one boxing gloves blindfold on
Earthquake flood hurricane eternal winter acid rain
Take me with you any which one I don't want to be left here alone
Cause this is where you and I end
This is where you and I end
So pick up the pieces one by one
Stick them back together again
Put on my Sunday best to cover the cracks
Where love lies bleeding
Love lies bleeding on the floor
I step over I can't care for it no more
Love lies bleeding on the floor right here
Cause this is where you and I end
The lines "This is where you and I end dragged it out as far as I can, This is where you and I end I will not come back here again" describe the end of a relationship that has been stretched to its limit. The singer has tried to hold on for as long as they could, but now they have reached a breaking point and they know that they cannot continue any longer. The phrase "dragged it out" suggests that the relationship has gone on far longer than it should have, and that the singer is exhausted from trying to make it work. They have finally come to the realization that it's time to let go and move on.
The next verse talks about the process of picking up the pieces and putting them back together again. The singer uses the metaphor of putting on their "Sunday best" to cover the cracks where love lies bleeding. This implies that they are trying to put on a brave face and hide their pain from the world, even though they are hurting inside. The following lines portray a sense of chaos and destruction, with references to natural disasters and the singer's desire to escape it all. The repeated phrase "This is where you and I end" emphasizes the finality of the situation, and the fact that there is no going back from this point.
The final lines "Love lies bleeding on the floor, I step over I can't care for it no more" depict a sense of detachment and emotional numbness. The singer's heart has been broken so many times that they have become desensitized to the pain. They are no longer able to care for the love that has been lost, and so they step over it and move on.
