BLACK KEYS

- Tighten Up Lyrics

I wanted love, I needev love
Most of all, most of all
Someone said true love was dead
And I'm bound to fall, bound to fall for you

Oh, what can I do? Yeah

Take my badge but my heart remains
Loving you, baby child
Tighten up on your reigns
You're running wild, running wild, it's true

Sick for days, so many ways
I'm aching now, I'm aching now
It's times like these, I need relief
Please show me how, oh, show me how
To get right, yes, out of sight

When I was young and moving fast
Nothing slowed me down, oh, slowed me down
Now I let the others pass
I've come around, oh, come around, 'cause I've found

Living just to keep going
Going just to be sane
All the while I know
It's such a shame

I don't need to get steady
I know just how I feel
Telling you to be ready
My dear

What is the meaning behind Tighten Up lyrics?


When we dive into the story the lyrics are telling, the track "Tighten Up," performed by The Black Keys, is very much true to life and beyond its upbeat sound and contagiously groovy rhythm. The singers make a clear statement that love is very demanding and that overcoming life's obstacles is part of the process. They also come to the conclusion that once in a while, you gotta go easy on yourself, re-orient your life, and then come back as a better person. The song mainly sets a guilty-pleasure, romantic mood around the themes of love, heartbreak, angst, nostalgia, and finally, reflection. In the same breath, the artist reminds us that love is still the supreme and the most desirable feeling in the world; emotions are still fluctuating, and thus self-reflection and personal growth, as well as the search for stability, are all part of the process. The lyrics portray need and love, which can be difficult to handle and might call for guiding adults when it comes to young kids. No direct mention of violence, drug use, or cursing, however, the emotional power and adult themes come up for discussion when talking about the suitability of some content for children.
