Yeah Yeah Yeahs – Cheated Hearts Lyrics 17 years ago
this song is about unresipricated love, crushes and leting go.

She is cheated by love because she cant have the one who she wants to be with and doesn't want to be with the one who wants to be with her.

"Kept my high from the second one
Kept my eye on the first one"

She keeps the rings of the men who want her and only puts them on when shes sad or cant have the one she wants.

"Take these rings and store them safe away
I'll wear them on another rainy day"

Tired of not being with her love, she begins to take off her inhibitions towards her "second". The "second" takes it off but is followed by the "first" as he gets jelous his own 'second' (karen o) not wanting him anymore... *make sense?*

"Well I’m take it take it take it take it taking it off
And she’s take it take it take it take it taking it off
And he’s take it take it take it take it taking it off
And we’re take it take it take it take it taking it off"

The sound is that of her second because she will always want her first more...

Well thats how i take it anyway...
