Cover art for Loose Lips Sink Ships lyrics by Hit the Lights

This is obviously about a failed relationship, one in which there was cheating involved. Hearts were ripped out, of course it is explained in such a non-cliche way, which i love. "But now its empty, now its broken. And thats how you left my chest. Hallowed out by your hands." That is so powerful right there. You can just imagine the heart being torn out, as it was how the person was feeling when the cheating was admitted. I can't listen to the last part enough... "so twist the knife. fashion me counter clockwise. turn back time. forget that you were never mine." There is so much bitterness and almost hatred in those words, like there is regret for the relationship having ever happened. Even though, im sure its just the initial reaction to the breakup that has left the dumpee so full of anger and resentment. And in the end, as much as is wanted... the cheater cant be forgotten, but there's always tomorrow! Gosh, what a freaking amazing song...
