Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Those walks in the rain
They carried me
Through loss and pain
When my heart stood still for the first time
And I cried out to feel it again
No one would answer me
And it’s an emergency
Give it give it give it time
I just need to give it
Give it give it give it time
Yeah I just need to give it
Give it give it give it time
I’ll act like I’m over you
Then lay under someone who
Looks like and
Talks like you
But she’ll never tell me the truth
Her words are just pretty
Oh darling what did I lose
When my heart stood still for the first time
And I cried out to feel it again
No one would answer me
And it’s an emergency
I just need to give it
Give it give it give it time
I just need to give it
Give it give it give it time
Yeah I just need to give it
Give it give it give it time
When my heart stood still for the first time
And I cried out to feel it again
No one would answer me
And it’s an emergency
The song, Emergency by Tank | www.Marvin-Vibez.in, explores the feeling of heartbreak and the inability to cope with rejection.
