Jar Of Hearts
Through Fire Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I know I can't take one more step towards you
'Cause all that's waiting is regret
And don't you know I'm not your ghost anymore
You lost the love I loved the most

I learned to live, half alive
And now you want me one more time
And who do you think you are?
Running 'round leaving scars
Collecting your jar of hearts
And tearing love apart
You're gonna catch a cold
From the ice inside your soul
So don't come back for me
Who do you think you are?

I hear you're asking all around
If I am anywhere to be found
But I have grown too strong
To ever fall back in your arms

I've learned to live, half alive
And now you want me one more time

And who do you think you are?
Running 'round leaving scars
Collecting your jar of hearts
And tearing love apart
You're gonna catch a cold
From the ice inside your soul
So don't come back for me
Who do you think you are?

It took so long just to feel alright
Remember how to put back the light in my eyes
I wish I had missed the first time that we kissed
'Cause you broke all your promises
And now you're back
You don't get to get me back

And who do you think you are?
Running around leaving scars
Collecting your jar of hearts
And tearing love apart
You're gonna catch a cold
From the ice inside your soul
So don't come back for me
Don't come back at all

And who do you think you are?
Running around leaving scars
Collecting your jar of hearts
And tearing love apart
You're gonna catch a cold
From the ice inside your soul
So don't come back for me
Don't come back at all

Who do you think you are?




Who do you think you are?
Who do you think you are?

Line by Line Meaning

I know I can't take one more step towards you
I am aware that approaching you will only result in heartbreak


'Cause all that's waiting is regret
Meeting you will only make me regret my decisions


And don't you know I'm not your ghost anymore
I am no longer under your control


You lost the love I loved the most
You are no longer worthy of my love


I learned to live, half alive
I learned to live a life without complete happiness


And now you want me one more time
You want me back after breaking my heart


And who do you think you are?
Who do you believe yourself to be?


Running 'round leaving scars
Hurting those who come into contact with you


Collecting your jar of hearts
Keeping a collection of people's broken hearts


And tearing love apart
Ripping apart the bonds of love


You're gonna catch a cold
Karma will catch up to you


From the ice inside your soul
Due to the lack of compassion in your heart


So don't come back for me
I refuse to let you back into my life


I hear you're asking all around
People have told me you are searching for me


If I am anywhere to be found
Wondering where I am


But I have grown too strong
I have developed a resistance to your manipulation


To ever fall back in your arms
I will never allow myself to be under your control again


It took so long just to feel alright
It took a long time to heal from the pain you inflicted


Remember how to put back the light in my eyes
To find joy and happiness once again


I wish I had missed the first time that we kissed
I regret ever falling for you


'Cause you broke all your promises
You failed to keep your word


And now you're back
You have returned


You don't get to get me back
I refuse to take you back


Don't come back at all
Stay out of my life permanently

I know I can´t take
one more step towards you
Cause all that´s waiting is regret
And don´t you know
I´m not your ghost anymore
You lost the love I loved the most

I learned to live half alive
And now you want me one more time

And who do you think you are
Running ´round leaving scars
Collecting your jar of hearts
And tearing love apart
You´re gonna catch a cold
From the ice inside your soul
So don´t come back for me
Who do you think you are

I hear you´re asking all around
If I am anywhere to be found
But I have grown too strong
To ever fall back in your arms

I learned to live half alive
And now you want me one more time

And who do you think you are
Running ´round leaving scars
Collecting your jar of hearts
And tearing love apart
You´re gonna catch a cold
From the ice inside your soul
So don´t come back for me
Who do you think you are

And it took so long just to feel alright
Remember how to put back
the light in my eyes
I wish I had missed
the first time that we kissed
Cause you broke all your promises
And now you´re back
You don´t get to get me back

And who do you think you are
Running ´round leaving scars
Collecting your jar of hearts
And tearing love apart
You´re gonna catch a cold
From the ice inside your soul
So don´t come back for me
Don´t come back at all

And who do you think you are
Running ´round leaving scars
Collecting your jar of hearts
And tearing love apart
You´re gonna catch a cold
From the ice inside your soul
Don´t come back for me
Don´t come back at all

Who do you think you are?
Who do you think you are?
Who do you think you are?

This song was one of my favorites back then :) I'm glad that they haven't changed its character just the sounding

CosplayMemories14

Holy crap. My friend sent me this to listen. And I wanna say it's better than the original, but tbh, both are great. However, this one vibes more with me and I love the influction (proper word?) Towards the end with the longer note lyrics. I love how the note 'flicks up' (I have forgotten the proper term, sory) instead of being level or lower than the rest of the notes. X3 I love it!!!!
