"How's in the opposite of my interest" should be **"How's any of this of my interest" **"You sold me out, I must have not got the check" **"I'm the devil on your shoulder Telling you that love is blind It's okay when, it's hiding in disguise" |

| Late Night Habit – Stories Lyrics | 14 years ago |
|
This song is about a girl who loves to go out and party and meet guys. She's the type that is always looking for the next best thing, but after she's done partying, she keeps running back to the same guy. She wants the best of both worlds: she wants to be wild, but she likes the stability of being able to run back to the guy when the partying gets old and she feels like something is missing. He really cares about her and hopes that she will eventually grow up and just be with him, but she keeps letting him down. He knows that he's better of without her and that he needs to break it off with her because she is wasting his time, but he keeps giving her chance after chance every time she shows up and she wants him back. In her defense (and the point of the whole chorus), the guy has a wild past too and she knows about it. This makes it hard for her to trust him, but trust is all he wants from her. In the end, she lets him know that she's never going to change and if he can't handle that then they need to go their separate ways. |

| Man Overboard – Fantasy Girl Lyrics | 14 years ago |

I might be way off, and the ideas above are good, but.... I feel like this song is about how he doesn't really want to be with this girl, but he's settling for her because, apparently, he thinks she is the best girl he'll ever be able to get, but he still isn't happy being with her. In the first verse, his ex (they probably just recently broke up) calls him upset because she found out that he has already been screwing around (or something) with other girls. He sweet talks her into getting back together with him because the new girls he's meeting aren't as good as his ex and he's afraid that she's the best girl he can get. But, when they get back together he realizes that he isn't happy with her; he's trying to convince himself that he's happy. In the chorus, the line "you're right... we should be together" definitely implies that she wants them to be together more than he does. He wants to go out and find someone new and better, but he isn't having any luck, so he figures that he might as well go back to her. The whole second half of the chorus is saying that he's in denial and trying to tell himself that she's his fantasy girl, but she definitely isn't. The second verse when he says "just like a trap" implies that he's stuck with her and everything is back to the way it used to be with them together, but he doesn't have any feelings for her. He's numb to it all and he's hoping to feel emotion; he's "waiting to react." I'm definitely reading personal experience into this one, but that's what this song makes me think of. There are definitely too many references to fake emotions for this to actually be talking about how this girl is really everything he wants. |
