Cool!
While others seem to take this songs lyrics very literally, I looked at them more symbolically, which is what drove me to make this remix. The song is about being so blindly in love with someone to the point where even if it's killing you, you don't care; as long as they're happy, you're happy.
Lines to support this claim.
"You're tearing me away
I'm fine, or so I say"
"Your hands are warm against my heart
Unlike the knife you used to cut
The hole you fill so comfortably"
"I'll change my everything for you
Just keep on doing what you do"
and with that up in the air, enjoy the remix. I love working with emotionally toned lyrics, and these are very powerful. The lyrics have been swapped from their original placement in What You Do.
The lyrics are as follows.
Everybody is gonna be happy / be happy
You're gonna make you so happy / so happy
Everybody is gonna be happy / be happy
You're gonna make you so happy / so happy
Your hands are warm against my heart
Unlike the knife you used to cut
The hole you fill so comfortably
But now I'm pouring out my guts
I will make room I'll empty out
I'll make sure you can move about
I'll change my everything for you
Just keep on doing what you do
Just keep on doing what you do [x4]
Everybody is gonna be happy / be happy
You're gonna make you so happy / so happy
The stitches didn't hold
My blood is running cold
You're tearing into me
You're happy as can be
The line is formed with red
My eyes roll back in my head
You're tearing me away
I'm fine, or so I say
Your hands are warm against my heart
Unlike the knife you used to cut
The hole you fill so comfortably
But now I'm pouring out my guts
I will make room I'll empty out
I'll make sure you can move about
I'll change my everything for you
Just keep on doing what you do
Your hands are warm against my heart
Unlike the knife you used to cut
The hole you fill so comfortably
But now I'm pouring out my guts
I will make room I'll empty out
I'll make sure you can move about
I'll change my everything for you
Just keep on doing what you do
Your hands are warm against my heart
Unlike the knife you used to cut
The hole you fill so comfortably
But now I'm pouring out my guts
I will make room I'll empty out
I'll make sure you can move about
I'll change my everything for you
Just keep on doing what you do
Just keep on doing what you do [x4]
