The Coldest Heart
To Be Juliet's Secret Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Danielle: You say you're trying and you're crying,
But I hate to say it. This is something I'm not buying.
You had your chance and you blew it.
You stole my heart and you threw it away.
You stood there with nothing to say
Oh, I blew it and I knew it.
Just take me back, please.
Those words, I didn't mean...
And if you can't, just swear you won't forget me.
Remember when you asked if you were worth dying for?
Remember when you asked if you were worth dying for?
But even the coldest hearts have a beat,
And we both know yours still beats for me.
But even the coldest hearts still have a beat,
And yours is nothing someone would want to keep.
Oh, trust me...

Mike: And I'm praying to God I'll forget her name
'Cause I got lost inside her little game.
And I thought I played so well. (I thought I played so well...)
I know I'm better for it. (I'm better for it! )
The likes of love fill my heart instead!

Danielle: I know one day we'll say we're sorry,
But it's to late to fix what's lost.
I know one day we'll say we're sorry

Both: But even the coldest hearts have a beat,
And we both know yours still beats for me.
But even the coldest hearts have a beat,
And yours is nothing someone would want to keep.
Oh, trust me...

Danielle: I wouldn't take you back if you were the only one.
I wouldn't take you back if you were the only one!
The only one, you taught me something
That I hope this dies with you... (I swear to God, I'll forget her name! )
I wouldn't take you back if you were the only one. (I thought I played so
Well! )
You taught me something that I hope this dies with you! (I swear to God,
I'll forget her name! )
I wouldn't take you back if you were the only one. (I thought I played so




Well! )
The only one, no!

You say you're trying and you're crying,
Even though you say you're putting in effort to fix things and are upset, I don't believe you. I'm not convinced and won't be swayed.


But I hate to say it. This is something I'm not buying.
I'm sorry to have to be blunt, but I don't trust that you're being sincere.


You had your chance and you blew it.
You had an opportunity to be with me, but you messed up and ruined it.


You stole my heart and you threw it away.
You took my love and then discarded it as if it meant nothing to you.


You stood there with nothing to say
You didn't even bother to explain yourself or apologize for your actions.


Oh, I blew it and I knew it.
I made a mistake by trusting you and I am aware of that now.


Just take me back, please.
I am begging for another chance with you.


Those words, I didn't mean...
I regret what I said and want to take it back.


And if you can't, just swear you won't forget me.
If you can't forgive me and give me another chance, at least promise that you'll remember me.


Remember when you asked if you were worth dying for?
You once questioned whether or not you were important enough to someone for them to risk their life for you.


But even the coldest hearts have a beat,
Even those who seem emotionally distant or cold still have the capacity to feel love or care.


And we both know yours still beats for me.
Despite everything, I know deep down that you still have feelings for me.


And yours is nothing someone would want to keep.
Your heart is not desirable, as it has caused pain and trouble in the past.


Oh, trust me...
Believe me when I say that things can't go back to the way they were before.


And I'm praying to God I'll forget her name
I'm desperately hoping to move on from the person who hurt me so much.


'Cause I got lost inside her little game.
I fell for her manipulative ways and got in too deep, leading to heartbreak.


And I thought I played so well. (I thought I played so well...)
I believed I had the upper hand and was in control of the situation, but it turns out I was mistaken.


I know I'm better for it. (I'm better for it! )
I've come to the realization that the experience, painful as it was, has helped me grow and become wiser.


I know one day we'll say we're sorry,
I believe that eventually we'll both feel remorse for what has transpired.


But it's too late to fix what's lost.
Unfortunately, the damage has already been done and can't be undone.


I wouldn't take you back if you were the only one.
Even if you were the last person on earth, I wouldn't want to be with you again.


The only one, you taught me something
Even though I never want to see you again, I recognize that you were able to teach me a valuable lesson.


That I hope this dies with you... (I swear to God, I'll forget her name! )
I hope to put this experience behind me and move on, hoping to never relive the pain again.


The only one, no!
Absolutely not, I refuse to let you have any power over me again.
