Amazing. "I want to die today And make love to you in my grave" One of the best fucking lines I have ever heard. |

| The Used – Take It Away Lyrics | 19 years ago |

This song seems like it could mean many things, but I was listening to it and suddenly I thought, this sounds like it's about fame; how it can be so seductive yet damaging. "To me it looks so pretty burning/Burn the sun/Burn the light/Take take take take take/Take it away". "I'm lying to myself And this dagger is my excuse I'm appalled I should have paid up And I left an hour late I was laid up" Possibly being fake or missing out on life by living it "fully".... "I must abuse myself I'm against all that I've made up Set in stone, the sun will come And I hate light You know I hate light" How he's losing himself through being exposed to so much "light", how it's changing who he is and he may be compromising himself. "I must have caught something In the heat of all these dances I'm a worm with no more chances And I've lost all doubt In a chemical romance" This sounds like it could be referencing to performing or being on drugs and how everything can seem so surreal. "I can't stop itching Over thoughts of tarnished hope Kinda funny Lonely feeling I'm not in love You know it's not love" Maybe that getting so much attention can be so isolating and that many of the people giving him sudden support or "love" is on false terms. And then, of course, the bridge: "Brothers and sisters I'm right here with you Cause everyone's got one A (story?) to kill me I'm so apathetic in my resentment Living, loving, knowing NOT" Everyone that he's surrounded by doesn't see that he's a person just like any other, and that he needs empathy.... Okay, so that analysis sucked really hard. "Take my hand Take my hand Take my hand Take my hand .... Take my life Take my heart Take my mind Take my life Take my life" Rescue me. Well, that turned out far sketchier than planned.... Oh well.... |

i'm listening to this song, and i sort of saw it differently than before. to me it seems like he's a paid assassin (or not..) either way he's killing people. "another knife in my hands/ that stain that never comes off the sheets/ clean me off/ i'm so dirty babe!/ it ain't the money and it sure as hell ain't just for the fame/ it's all the bodies i claim" sort of gives a feel like this is clearly not for just for kicks. this i have always thought, but towards the end when it gets to "never again/ they gave us two shots to the back of ther head/ and we're all dead now" makes me think that perhaps he was caught some way or another and realizes that through killing so many people, he's become dead inside or lost his values or something.... anyway "and it's better off this way" is like now that he's been stopped, "dead", or however it happened, and his life isn't his anymore. maybe he realizes that that it's better he's been stopped....? so what i said makes no sense. i just heard it and treid to capture how i saw it... and it didn't come out to clearly. oh well. sorry to butcher the song so much. |

| oh btw.... i'm definately not saying that's what it's about, that's just my interpretation of this song by relating it to my own life. but you can't know anything you don't experience anyway. right? | |

ok two theories here.... 1) self examination. it seems like he's talking to himself. the first verse in a way that you try to tell yourself not to care, but you can't help but notice you're going in a downward spiral. later int he song it seems like it's getting more to a point where one might be screaming at oneself in the mirror, realizing what your life is really like, "and you can't touch my brother and you can't keep my friends". you're not the same person anymore. also the "oh baby let me in"'s seem to fit well with this concept becasue he talks about the vanity he's breaking and beauty that he's faking, as if asking to be the mask that he sees in the mirror. 2) basic breakup version.... like an ex coming around and seeing how fucked up his life is getting and his reply would be the song. i like this idea just because it makes the song have a real "now you give a fuck" vibe to it.... however the first version would almost be the opposite, trying not to care, and eventually not caring, which in the end could turn out to be a situation that would force you to look at yourself and stop or die.... yes i know i sound stupid and cheesy right now, mainly because i am. i haven't slept more than an hour per night all week.... and i have chronic fatigue, which basicly turns me into a tired body that starts laughing at random moments. not a good combo.... sleeping pills must be the food of angels (or the devil... that makes much more sense right now). anyway that's what i think at the moment, as ridiculous as it may be. |
