A speaker confronts a partner whose words have lost all meaning, using vivid metaphors of covering ears and drowning out voices to express frustration and self-protection. Repetitive phrases underscore a resolve to protect oneself as love runs out of time.
Enough is enough. I'm covering my ears like a kid. When your words mean nothing, I go la la la. I'm turning up the fire when you speak. 'Cause if my heart caught something, I'll find a way to rock and I'll go. I'll find a way to rock and I'll go. If our love is running out of time, I won't count the hours. Rather be a coward when our worlds collide. I'm gonna drown you out before I lose my mind.
