Cynicism is an attitude or state of mind characterized by a general distrust of others' motives believing that humans are selfish by nature, ruled by emotion, and heavily influenced by the same primitive instincts that helped humans survive in the wild before agriculture and civilization became established. The two people who are competing on the same "top" (in this case, a girl he wants to "lift her love"). What drives them to get to the top is ruled by emotion, like Cynicism. The writer states he will stop at nothing to get to the girl, and the other man wants the same girl. He doesn't want to hurt him, and he is afraid that they are both blinded by their emotions for nothing ("only time will tell if we're all just cynics on the run"= only time will tell if this was all worth it).. "The truth" which is their emotions, ties them to one another, otherwise their paths wouldn't have crossed. The writer knows he is not lying, but the truth is so cinfusing for him. |

I think this song talks about a guy who is in love with this girl, who keeps sending him messages that she wants him although she has no romantic interest on him. She cares about him deeply, and she thinks the best thing for him is to stop his relationship with her, but it seems as if he feels like he can't. She wants to let him get what he wants of her so she acts like she is the person he thinks she is, only she's not. She says, he’s going straight to nowhere He should buy a ticket home ------------------------------------ she knows he's repeating a path that leads him nowhere with her she wants him to save himself from her hurting him again ------------------------------------ She’s a straight line on a sharp bend And he’s an ending on a road ------------------------ she is dangerous for him, he is not capable of the road she leads to their paths don't cross each others ------------------------ He’s got no time to be a front man Tie his shoes, wear his clothes ---------------------- he doesn't know how to escape, or doesn't want to even if that's what's good for him ---------------------- She will try to twist his fingers ---------------------- she will try to hurt him, so he'll see she's not good for him ---------------------- He will try to break her bones He’s doctor and he says he’s certified ----------------------- he will try to hurt her too, and then be the only one who can cure her. he knows she relys on him too and he uses that knowlege to make her interact with him ----------------------- Oh, she knows that that is wrong, when she just looks into his eyes He’ll mend her heartbreak, and she says that he has the cure But medicine don’t kick in like it used to anymore ----------------------- she knows he can't make her be better, get better. but then she convinces herself that mabey he will. mabey this time she will see him in the light they both hope to see each other. but she doesn't, and even though he mends her heartbreak it's only temporary. Later on the song it is told that she controls the relationship, although they both rely on each other. She loves him, she really does, and she acts how she acts to make him happy. He makes himself believe that she wants him to be happy because she wants a romantic relationship with him but that is not the case. When she apologizes for all the mess she couldn't help herself from making, he mis-hears it as a promise for future hope. He will keep trying but for nothing. He will keep lying to get close to her, and she'll keep believing it. |
