Heavenly Kind Of State Of Mind

Lewis Capaldi's 'Heavenly Kind Of State Of Mind' is a heartfelt ode to a love so profound it feels almost divine. The song opens with a striking metaphor, comparing the blue in the lover's eyes to a blasphemy that could make a congregation cry. This sets the tone for the rest of the song, where Capaldi intertwines religious imagery with the intensity of his emotions. The line 'I could run and tell the devil to go fuck himself' underscores the transformative power of this love, suggesting it gives him the courage to face even the most daunting challenges.

The chorus reveals Capaldi's willingness to face death if it means being by his lover's side, describing it as a 'heavenly way to say goodbye.' This sentiment is echoed throughout the song, emphasizing the eternal nature of their bond. The lyrics 'Whether you were heaven-sent to save me from above / Or the only one who doesn't hate me, that's enough' highlight the duality of his feelings—whether this love is a divine intervention or simply a rare human connection, it is invaluable to him.

Capaldi also touches on themes of salvation and redemption, singing about being saved from 'original sin' and finding peace in his lover's presence. The repeated phrase 'heavenly kind of state of mind' encapsulates the bliss and tranquility he experiences, contrasting sharply with the chaos he feels when alone. The song concludes with a powerful affirmation of his lover's role in his life, describing them as the reason he keeps believing. This track is a beautiful exploration of love's ability to elevate and transform, making it feel almost sacred.
