Deep In My Heart
The Drums Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
but I don't know how
And I know I supposed to forget you
somebody tell me how
'Cause I've seen everyone
I've seen everyone
I've seen everyone
I buried you deep in my heart
It takes everything in me
To make you happy
You take what I have to give
'Till I feel empty
And I'll keep coming back to be with you
Like the morning sun
Cause I've seen everyone
I've seen everyone
I've seen everyone
And you're not everyone
I buried you deep in my heart
Cause I've seen everyone
I've seen everyone
I've seen everyone
And you're not everyone
The lyrics of "Deep in My Heart" by The Drums is a introspective song about the emotional journey of remembering someone who has left, and trying to forget them. The singer seems to be grappling with the idea of moving on, while still feeling the pain of missing the person. He acknowledges that he is supposed to forget this person but he doesn't know how to. He has seen everyone else but they are not the person he buried deep in his heart. This song is a ballad to a lost love and the difficulties and pain that come with trying to let go of someone you deeply care for.
The repetition of the phrase "I've seen everyone" appears to allude to the search for a replacement for the person the singer is trying to forget; everyone else may seem to be the same, but they are not the person he lost. The expression 'I've buried you deep in my heart' is a metaphorical representation of the singer's inability to forget the person he cared for, revealing that the person he buried is still alive in his memories.
Overall, this song represents the struggle of trying to overcome intimate and emotional ties with someone that has left, and how it is not easy to forget someone that was once an essential part of your life.

I know I supposed to forget you
I am aware that I should move on from you
but I don't know how
However, I do not know the way to move on from you
And I know I supposed to forget you
I understand that I am supposed to forget about you
somebody tell me how
But I am unclear on how to proceed
'Cause I've seen everyone
I have met many people
I've seen everyone
I have seen everybody
I've seen everyone
I have encountered everyone
And you're not everyone
But you are different from them
I buried you deep in my heart
I can't stop loving you and you are always in my thoughts
It takes everything in me
It takes a lot of effort from me
To make you happy
To bring joy to you
You take what I have to give
You take all that I offer
'Till I feel empty
To the extent that I feel exhausted or drained
And I'll keep coming back to be with you
I will continue to come to you and be with you
Like the morning sun
Regularly and consistently, like the sunrise
'Cause I've seen everyone
Because I have met and interacted with many people
I've seen everyone
I have come across everyone
I've seen everyone
I have encountered everyone
And you're not everyone
But you stand out and are unique compared to them
I buried you deep in my heart
I cannot forget you and will always remember you
