Fairly easy to understand. But the lyrics are still quite moving and I can relate to them. And I'm sure many others can as well. |

| The Dresden Dolls – Slide Lyrics

I get the vibe of childhood sexual abuse from this song. The orangeman is a pedofile and is luring the red little girl. She ages as she slides down beacause she's lost her innocence now.
"who left the playground
a good decade before the bell rang?" I love how the first verse is repeated at the end of the song. The average pedofile has over 500 victims and it just keeps repeating it's self. I think that's why the verse is repeated. |

I too get the Lizzie Borden vibe from this beautiful song. It's one of my favorites (because I can never just pick one ;] ) The idea from CoinXOperatedXGirl is also a good possiblity. |

I agree with all of the above comments. It's based on the Cinderella tale. But I think it also about trying to please the "prince" you are with or after. And after all the work she has done, it never would have worked out anyway because she was "never the right size". It's a heart-breaking song that I've played over and over. I love the way Amanda sings it. |

DresdenDarling: I thought the same thing the very first time I heard it. But I now believe that it's about not wanting to grow up, wanting to go back to your childhood, and wanting to have things stay the same. |

I love,Love, LOVE this song! I think it is about someone who is trying to be a musician but is failing. Amanda tries to keep their spirts up and stands "around like a good friend should". Though there could be some sort of love intrest. Even if I don't know exactly what it means, I still love it.
"i will sing your fears if
you sing my neurosis"

Almost of the ideas behind the song posted on here (minus the drug ones) make sense to me. It could be all of them for all I know! But it's still one of my favorite SOAD songs even if I don't understand everything about it. |

I think it's more than just about Christianity. It could also be about people that others idolize so much to make them look like Gods. |

I think Sparkle_motion has an interesting view. After re-reading the lyrics I do get the SM vibe. It's quite possible with Jessicka being the Patron Saint of Self Injury and all.
By the way: Sparkle_motion, I love your name. I'm assuming you're refering to Donnie Darko? |

I agree with Demeter. I think it's interchangable. Religon and Manson. Maybe because extreme fans of Manson make him up to be a God. |

I was always confused about the lyrics. It could be "Twiggy" or "Manson" eaither way it's a kickass song, and my favorite JOJ. |

For some reason, I believe it's about someone being in love with a drag queen and the party lifestyle.
"The odds of it are such a drag my darling

I agree with UBER-LARRY, but I also think that it could be about people who follow all of the latest trends and fashions. That they are all statues that they are all alike. |

| The Dresden Dolls – Dear Jenny Lyrics
| 19 years ago
|
It's about a psychiatric hostpital. There are many expamples of people in need of some help.
"...andy gets a new tattoo each time he gets back bathroom privledge..." Andy is a person who commits acts of self injury. "boys wear overcoats in heat like this to keep themselves from showing..." This is about a person who flashes. And it seems to me that Jenny has some form of depression because she feels that the world is happier with out her. |

| Jack Off Jill – Vivica Lyrics

I think the song is about rape. I think that "Vivica" raped and Jessicka watched her waste away after that. She wants to know that she was beautiful, but he'll never tell her that. So it's now Jesssicka's "job" to help her through it and raise her self-esteem. She needs the sleeping pills to fall asleep because she has nightmares about it. And she dreams that she is invisable because she doesn't want it to happen again. And she feels empty because she was taken advantage of.
...But that's just my theroy.... |
