‘Continue to pretend’: The lyrics to Calvin Harris’ BREAK-UP song
This week, Calvin Harris announced that he was releasing a new track, and EVERYONE started to label it as his 'break-up' song.
The Internet has been swirling around major conspiracy theories over the past few weeks, so does this song tell us a bit more about the split?
Urmmm, kinda.
The single belongs to John Newman, but Calvin wrote and produced it. Throughout the track, John sings about his ex-flame and how their relationship has fizzled out.
When first listening to the track, it's quite preppy and upbeat, but don't be fooled – Calvin is p*ssed, and we're going straight to the second verse for evidence.
"My heart speaks/ I ain't seen you or been with you for weeks/ But I see online that you've begun to be/ A good girl and take trips with your boyfriend/ Being attentive, continue to pretend."
OUCH. Now, we're totally over-analysing here BUT "continue to pretend" – does Calvin know the TayTo romance is fake?!
And, "You've begun to be a good girl" – Is Taylor really a mean girl?!
So. Many. Questions. And if you want to over-analyse the lyrics for yourself, you can find them here.
Have fun!
