Ok, I can see what you're getting at, but I think it goes a bit deeper than that. Justin is Bipolar, and I rememebr reading somewhere he never writes anythign that hasn't happend to him. My guess is, that this is about him loosing control, passing out, (Disregarding that I've created these monsters) He can't run from it, because it's in him.. It is him. (when honesty lit up that room so I stole the pillowcase to clean this mess I've made of someones dream.) Honesty hurts because it's not pretty, far from it. He thinks he's ruined the dreams of his mother etc, and blah blah blah, that's my idea. |

Ok, there's a lot of comments saying the WHOLE song is about cutting, I don't think it is. I think this is about his (Chester, but could mean the others) struggle with depression. I read up on his past and it seems he went through a lot I did, and possible a lot of people who hear this could relate. Songs mean different things to different people depending on where they are in life. Part of me won't go away Everyday reminded how much I hate it This is that nagging voice, that part of you that sees all the problems with everything, and drags you into dark places. Reminded how much you hate it when it constantly replays all the faults over and over untill you want to CUT IT OUT. Again, depression sometimes leads to cutting, but it's still a metaphore. Cutting away the heinous cretin living inside you. Hang my head low cause it's part of me You hardly see right next to the heart of me When I'm not doing good, people don't usually know, and its saying that you hardly see the bad part, and whats tearing him up inside because its so far down. Just eating him from the inside out. Wanna cut it out of my soul And just live with a gaping hole Take control of my life And wash out all the burnt taste I made the problems in the first place Wants to get rid of it, because its not him, its like a paraside, and if he could live without it, even with the 'gaping hole' then he could take control and drag himself out of the depths. He thinks that it's his fault, nothing made him like this, it just crept in. And he randomly slips into bouts of depression, that the routine scar part talking. Everytime he comes out of it theres a scar left where it tore away his sanity. And now I'm sick of this I can't stand the sandpaper thoughts that grate on my sanity I rather not even be then the man that's staring in the mirror through me He's sick of feeling so bad all the time, and not being able to do anything about it. And when he is, it al he can think about, the sandpaper thoughts. They re run over and over again and tear away his sanity.. Sorry I'm repeating myself. I feel it swell up inside, swell up inside, swallowing me. After a while it kindof takes over, and then there's nothing left to do. You can fight, but then your lost. It swollows the old you whole. Freedom can be frightening if you've never felt it This bit's all about how great it feel when it's finally gone, but then something else turns sour, and you remember the badness from last time and you taken back down the well, back to where you were before. Back to hell. There's more, but it wont fit on here. I can compleatly relate, to many LP lyrics, and it helps us all in different ways. Thats one of the reasons they do it. For us. And when your derpessed there is a part of you screaming away silently, haunting every waking moment, you cant think streight, and then it goes away, you think you've dealt with it, there's always something that comes back and your back to the beggining. A never ending circle of pain. Damn I love this song. |
