What was jar of hearts written about

It has been noted that initially Christina Perri put it out as an independent artist. However, it has since then been handled by Atlantic Records. This helped make the track popular even before it was released, and as such its issuance was expedited onto iTunes.

And it was this song in particular which led to her signing a deal with Atlantic Records. And the other co-producer of the track is David Hodges. It really sinks deep..

The song is pretty self explanatory. Love the line "You're gonna catch a cold from the ice inside your soul" Like omg, awesome. General Comment Agree with an earlier poster that it's surprising there aren't more comments here. Like most of the posts, I think it's fairly clear what the song is about a girl manages to resist a serial player when he wants her back. Having watched the video though, I think it shows an additional dimension to the song.

Throughout most of it the guy is sucking the breath life? So I think the guy has seen the error of his ways, realised he is in love with the girl, and decided to give up his cheating ways. Unfortunately he is too late, since his earlier actions have given the girl far more strength than she had before. She can not only resist him, but she can completely break his heart. Revenge is sweet! Can you explain the whole sucking ari thing to me a bit more?

LyricsGirl on November 03, General Comment i think this song tries to show us how if we let the person that hurt you get to u thats the only way they can cause pain, aand the " u think u are" shows how no one has the right to break your heart Miktunester on July 03, Link.

General Comment The whole jist of the song is "who do you think you are? Though the perpetrater knew her weaknesses and used them to break her down, she healed and grew stronger and to even imagine that person in her life again is like a slap in the face.

Basically, she is saying that she is sickened by the thought that he would ever ask about her again or enter her life and hopes that eventually he will become ill and be plagued by his cold, cold heart. It's more of a cry for remorse, if anything and much, much distance from him. These things are cyclical in nature and are repetitive and are reasons why loneliness never sounded so comforting. Great song and her voice is unique. I learned to live half alive I learned to live without you And now you want me one more time - You still want me to love you, for me to want to come back.

And who do you think you are? I too am taking good advice And I've learned to live half alive And now you want me one more time And who do you think you are? Zygon on June 18, Link. This is the sweet spot. To me, this song could have one of two meanings. The first one, and most obvious, is that she is describing a classic love drama, in which a desperate or vulnerable someone falls in love with a greedy, narcissist.

The narcissist is always using the vulnerable one and the two are not meant to be. Its an emoji heart with the center shot with an arrow to the other side. It looks similar to the arrow shot by Cupid for love. It was there that Perri, who has the names of all the members of the Beatles tattooed on her left wrist, would pen the song that ultimately changed her life forever.

The autobiographical tune about a bad boyfriend who returned to her life, much to her dismay, propelled her to move back to L. Perri told Rolling Stone last year, "All of my songs are about me, and they're usually about love. Tookey, along with contestants Billy Bell and Kathryn McCormick, crafted a dance routine to the song, which immediately became a favorite among viewers.

And it hasn't stopped, which is a good thing, and I'm trying to stay grounded and focus and keep doing what I'm doing every day.
