In this evocative ballad, the artist expresses her longing for a love that is passionate and unpredictable. She contrasts her desire for a "riot" of emotions with the mundane routine of a typical relationship. The lyrics indicate dissatisfaction with an unfulfilling love life and yearn for more excitement, passion, and spontaneity. The repeated phrase "Love's too routine" underlines the monotony she feels in her current relationship. The song serves as a plea for her partner to break away from their habitual patterns, suggesting that their love could be at risk if things don't change. The use of metaphors such as 'roses and daisies' versus 'passion and fire like Hades' further illustrates the disparity between her desires and reality.
