Wavves' fifth album entitled "V" was released on October 2, 2015 through Ghost Ramp and Warner Bros. Records.
Heart Attack
Wavves Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I'm getting off because I'm being used, by you
We could do anything you wanted to, do
We could do anything you wanna do
Oooh get up get ready
Oooh get up get ready
Oooh get up get ready
For a heart attack
Heart attack
It's a heart attack
Heart attack
Can't wait my turn, my fear is looming
My thoughts get lost, the air is putrid
You can do anything you wanna do, do
You can do anything you wanna do
(Useless)
Oooh get up get ready
Oooh get up get ready
Oooh get up get ready
Get ready, get ready
Oooh get up get ready
Oooh get up get ready
Oooh get up get ready
Get ready, get ready
For a heart attack
Heart attack
It's a heart attack
Heart attack
The song "Heart Attack" by Wavves is a song that is an exploration of the dynamic between two people, where one person is being taken advantage of by the other, and they know it but still can't resist the attraction. The first verse sets the scene for this dynamic, with the singer offering to do anything the other person wants, getting off just by being used by them. The chorus warns of the dangerous consequences that come with this kind of relationship, with the repeated refrain of "It's a heart attack" signaling the emotional turmoil that occurs in situations like this. The second verse is a more introspective take on this dynamic, with the singer expressing fear and uncertainty about the situation, but ultimately resigning themselves to being at the mercy of the other person's wishes.
The repetition of the phrase "Oooh get up get ready" in the chorus seems to be a kind of rallying call, urging the listener to prepare themselves for the inevitable consequences of being in a toxic relationship. The use of the word "useless" at the end of the second verse also suggests a feeling of worthlessness or powerlessness on the part of the singer, as if they know they're being taken advantage of but can't do anything about it. Overall, the song is a potent expression of the emotional toll that toxic relationships can take on people, and a warning of the dangers of getting caught up in them.

Meeting people who are going thru mental illness is always cool in the sense that there’s someone else far knows what the downs feel like. Never judge on in the outlook of someone cause that could be a costume. Real recognize real. Stay up people. Life is harsh but beautiful if you let it...
