Thake my heart
The Proms Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

You close your tired eyes
Some times you have to let go
I feel these feelings as they tremble away
You have said your good byes to me, in my memory

This is just another fond farewell, for you to die with
In another second
I am left breathless
In another moment

I am left emotionless
Come on

These words are like poetry
I look down as my wrists are slit I am still bleeding
I look as my, my wrists are still bleeding
I am so sorry, cause I am so sorry

Why am I so sorry?
'Cause I am so sorry
For what I have done

'Cause I am lost
As this time fell apart

I won't forget
'Cause I will not forget

'Cause as love is lose




Well as love is lost
Yet again I will bleed

Overall Meaning

These lyrics from The Proms's song "Take My Heart" tell the story of a painful goodbye and the aftermath of the loss. The listener finds themselves in the shoes of someone who has just said goodbye to a loved one, who they will never see again. They feel the trembling and the emotions that come with a heavy heart. The pain is so strong that the singer wants to end their life and express their sorrow, even though they are already bleeding. Despite being sorry for what they have done, they cannot forget the experience of such devastating heartbreak.


The lyrics are powerful and metaphorical. The reference to slitting wrists, in particular, is a powerful image to describe the pain of the loss. The idea that the singer is lost and cannot forget the pain of loss is also relatable, and the repetition of the phrase "I am so sorry" reinforces the idea of regret and a sense of being trapped in their emotions.
