Shake
tiny dinosaurs Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I won't shake you up
You will break me up
I'm back to this crazy city stream
You turned into a dream I can't redeem
Fall into void
I'm crushed like the sunlight by a thunderstorm
Falling in low
Dispose of me gently like a broken glass
I won't shake me up
You will mess me up
There're tears in my eyes I can't defend
My soul is a wreck waiting to mend
Fall into void
I'm crushed like the sunlight by a thunderstorm




Falling in low
Dispose of me gently like a broken glass

Overall, these lyrics capture the complexities and challenges of navigating a difficult relationship where emotions are raw and conflicting.
