The meaning of the lyrics of the song "Tears & Tantrums" by the artist "XYL#216;"

"Tears & Tantrums" by XYL#216; depicts the raw emotions of heartbreak and a woman's attempt to escape the pain on the dance floor. She yearns to "forget about all the problems in dance", to lose herself in the music and escape the thoughts of her former lover, but to no avail.

The dance floor becomes a metaphor for a temporary escape from reality, where tears mingle with sweat, and the rhythm of the music tries to drown out the inner turmoil. Yet, even in this atmosphere of carefree abandon, the ghost of the past haunts her: "Everywhere I look – I see you".

Despite her friends' attempts to cheer her up, she can't hold back the wave of emotions. Alcohol, flashing lights, and pulsating music are mere distractions, incapable of healing the deep wound in her heart.

The recurring lines "I just can't stop crying on the dance floor" and "Can't learn to hold back these tears and tantrums" emphasize the futility of her attempts to outrun the pain. Ultimately, she acknowledges that these tears stem directly from their separation, and until she finds a way to cope with the loss, the tears will continue to flow.

I'm just tryna dance my troubles away

Throw up my problems like money

But I can't stop crying on the dancefloor

No, I can't stop crying on the dancefloor

I'm just tryna move, but you're in my way

Everywhere I look, I see your face

No, I can't stop crying on the dancefloor

No, I can't control these tears and tantrums

I've been crying all night

Good God, I guess the boy of my dreams ain't right

Thought I'd love him for life, oh

I didn't wanna leave home

My girls hit me up on my phone like "no"

It's a Saturday night, oh

Now I can almost see you in the strobe lights

Come on, tell me you're sorry

But you're not

So I'm just tryna dance my troubles away

Throw up my problems like money

But I can't stop crying on the dancefloor

No, I can't stop crying on the dancefloor

I'm just tryna move, but you're in my way

Everywhere I look, I see your face

No, I can't stop crying on the dancefloor

No, I can't control these tears and tantrums

I just started round eight

Good God, they're tryna stop me but it's way too late

I won't know when I'm done, oh

You know I hate feeling like this

I work myself into a state, I'm a right mess

No, I'm not drinking for fun, oh

I thought I saw you dancing in the strobe lights

I think I've had one too many

So I'm just tryna dance my troubles away

Throw up my problems like money

But I can't stop crying on the dancefloor

No, I can't stop crying on the dancefloor

I'm just tryna move, but you're in my way

Everywhere I look, I see your face

No, I can't stop crying on the dancefloor

No, I can't control these tears and tantrums

No, I can't control these tears and tantrums

My tears keep on falling down

When I see you there in the crowd

These tears keep on falling for you

So I'm just tryna dance my troubles away

Throw up my problems like money

But I can't stop crying on the dancefloor

No, I can't stop crying on the dancefloor

I'm just tryna move, but you're in my way

Everywhere I look, I see your face

No, I can't stop crying on the dancefloor

No, I can't control these tears and tantrums

No, I can't control these tears and tantrums

No, I can't control these

No, I can't control these

No, I can't control these

No, I can't control these tears and tantrums

No, I can't control these

No, I can't control these

No, I can't control these

No, I can't control these tears and tantrums
