Love Made Me

Love Made Me"

Our conversation ends too soon, you grab your coat and leave the room
My heart dissolves onto the floor, our world divides, we don't talk anymore

And I still remember when we first met, it was on a night like this
The moon was shining for you and me
When I stood alone, I'd be betrayed by your kiss

[Chorus:]

Love made me blind to the truth
Love made me crawl, I should've stood up to you
Love made me cry out your name
So what's so good about love when it hurts you this way

Cold lurking nights, in the days there were tears
They held us captive, and chained to our fears
Is this the dream you've been searching for
Is this the love that I don't want anymore

[chorus]

Somewhere in a scene you were holding me, we both never fade
But the hope it sounds on the battleground, nothing's gonna change

[Solo]





[chorus repeats out...]

Overall Meaning

The song "Love Made Me" by Vixen is about the painful experiences of love that someone undergoes even when they know that their love has become a burden for them. The first verse employs metaphor when the author uses the image of the heart dissolving onto the floor, indicating that their heart has been broken. The second verse depicts the happy memories of how the lovers first met - on a night when the moon shined magically for them. They fell in love, but the main character was naive to the ways of love and could not comprehend it. She was blinded by love and did not see the truth. It made her weak and vulnerable, so much so that she felt like crawling instead of standing up to her lover.


In the chorus, she expresses her misery because of love. She had been hurt so much by her lover that she cannot help but cry out his name. She wonders if the pain she has had because of love is worth it. The second verse again showcases the author's pain, the nights full of cold and tears, and the fear that keeps them both chained. In the last verse, the author is stuck in the past, hoping that someday, her lover will hold her again. Ultimately, the author concludes that nothing has changed, and nothing will.

Love Made Me"
Our conversation ends too soon, you grab your coat and leave the room
My heart dissolves onto the floor, our world divides, we don't talk anymore
And I still remember when we first met, it was on a night like this
The moon was shining for you and me
When I stood alone, I'd be betrayed by your kiss
Love made me blind to the truth
Love made me crawl, I should've stood up to you
Love made me cry out your name
So what's so good about love when it hurts you this way
Cold lurking nights, in the days there were tears
They held us captive, and chained to our fears
Is this the dream you've been searching for
Is this the love that I don't want anymore
Somewhere in a scene you were holding me, we both never fade
But the hope it sounds on the battleground, nothing's gonna change
Somewhere in a scene you were holding me, we both never fade
But the hope it sounds on the battleground, nothing's gonna change

@dchenkin02 Totally! Vixen's timing was shit. They'd be up there with Jovi if they had debuted their self titled album in 85ish rather than '88.

Shawn Lewis

I didn't even know that she passed away...sad how a lot of great stars pass every day or week and we don't even know. I'm 47 and to think she passed away and was only 4 years older than me is always a true wake up call, the older we get the more we realize how short our time is on this planet...we need to make the best of it while we're here...this one life is the only shot we have!
