SAVAGE GARDEN

- Gunning Down Romance Lyrics

Love and other moments are just chemical reactions in your brain
In your brain
And feelings of aggression are the absence of the love drug in
Your veins, in your veins
Love come quickly
Because I feel my self-esteem is caving in
It's on the brink
Love come quickly
Because I don't think I can keep this monster in
It's in my skin

Love and other socially acceptable emotions are morphine
They're morphine
Cleverly concealing primal urges often felt but rarely seen
Rarely seen
Love I beg you
Lift me up into that privileged point of view
The world of two
Love don't leave me
Because I console myself that HallmarkT cards are true
I really do

I'm gunning down romance
It never did a thing for me
But heartache and misery
Ain't nothing but a tragedy

Love don't leave me

Take these broken wings
I'm going to take these broken wings
And learn to fly
And learn to fly away
And learn to fly away

I'm gunning down romance

What is the meaning behind Gunning Down Romance lyrics?


When we take a closer look at its interpretation, Savage Garden's 'Gunning Down Romance' draws a picture of being disillusioned with love, saying it is a chemical reaction, and thus being nothing more than the source of hurt. However, the artist is putting forward a desperate request for love to be their way out and their consolation, thus reaping the fruits of such a painful experience. The song's lyrics are mainly filled with love, heartbreak, angst, reflection, and despair. On the other hand, the music points out love as a chemical reaction, emotions as societal constructions, disillusionment with romance, a desperate craving for love, and resilience and moving on. The language and themes in the lyrics are mature and therefore could be inappropriate for the younger ones. The use of 'gunnin' down romance' and the constant reference to 'heartache and misery' imply a certain emotional intensity that is more fitting for older teenagers and adults.
