Cherry Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Love, I said real love is like feeling no fear
When you're standing in the face of danger
'Cause you just want it so much
A touch from your real love
Is like heaven taking the place of something evil
And lettin' it burn off from the rush, yeah, yeah (fuck)
[Chorus]
Darlin', darlin', darlin'
I fall to pieces when I'm with you, I fall to pieces
My cherries and wine, rosemary and thyme
And all of my peaches are ruined
[Verse 2]
Love, is it real love?
It's like smiling when the firing squad's against you
And you just stay lined up, yeah (fuck)
[Chorus]
Darlin', darlin', darlin'
I fall to pieces when I'm with you, I fall to pieces (bitch)
My cherries and wine, rosemary and thyme
And all of my peaches are ruined (bitch)
[Bridge]
My rose garden dreams, set on fire by fiends
And all my black beaches are ruined
My celluloid scenes are torn at the seams
And I fall to pieces (bitch)
I fall to pieces when I'm with you
(Why?)
[Chorus]
'Cause I love you so much, I fall to pieces
My cherries and wine, rosemary and thyme
And all of my peaches are ruined (bitch)
Are ruined (bitch), are ruined (fuck)
Love, I said real love is like feeling no fear
When you're standing in the face of danger
'Cause you just want it so much
A touch from your real love
Is like heaven taking the place of something evil
And lettin' it burn off from the rush, yeah, yeah (fuck)
Darlin', darlin', darlin'
I fall to pieces when I'm with you, I fall to pieces
My cherries and wine, rosemary and thyme
And all of my peaches are ruined
Love, is it real love?
It's like smiling when the firing squad's against you
And you just stay lined up, yeah (fuck)
Darlin', darlin', darlin'
I fall to pieces when I'm with you, I fall to pieces (bitch)
My cherries and wine, rosemary and thyme
And all of my peaches are ruined (bitch)
My rose garden dreams, set on fire by fiends
And all my black beaches are ruined
My celluloid scenes are torn at the seams
And I fall to pieces (bitch)
I fall to pieces when I'm with you
(Why?)
'Cause I love you so much, I fall to pieces
My cherries and wine, rosemary and thyme
And all of my peaches are ruined (bitch)
Are ruined (bitch), are ruined (fuck)

I guess she's expressing her vulnerability when she's around this [toxic?] man.
She loves him and knows she is just setting herself up for heart break but continues on pursuing the relationship regardless of the negative outcome it may have.
Why? Because she just loves him so much. Duh. So she falls to pieces for him. Once he's done, all her beautiful, naïve, innocent and pure thoughts/feelings are destroyed. He takes all that away from her and now she's ruined.
The "fuck" and "bitch" in the background could be an internal dialogue. She's conflicted because she knows better than this and should know the consequences, she's telling herself to snap out of it before it's too late? Maybe I'm wrong
@alrightyea i feel it's more of a reflection on her, and how she loves. when she loves she knows it will always end in pain and heartbreak, but she goes for it anyways, always. i can very much relate to this song because i am the same way. especially the line about standing in front of the firing line with a smile... that is the best line in the song imo, love brings out all her flaws, she fears it, but she's going for it head on with no regrets.

I’m maybe wrong but I think it’s about domestic violence where the girl expected a «perfect love »
The «All my peaches are ruined» I think peach refers to her body The «my rose garden dreams,set on fire by fiends» means she didn’t expect it to be what it is
Feel free to disagree with me btw I’m not AT ALL an expert
