this is such a sad song, (which i loved to dance to happily/cluelessly as a teen)
i think its definitely guy who had a child with a girlfriend who they had a tumultuous relationship and he bailed and later maybe years? The mom told the child his dad died and thats why hes not around, thinking hed never show up, now he has feelings of regret for himself and realizes how selfish it is to not really care about how the mom and kid feel/felt, but admit hes apathetic/selfish and lame, he never called or made any attempt to contact the child but the knowledge doesnt make him actually change his feelings, so he says listen im here right now, and i admit im not capable of this real love, and hes "good as blind" like he hasnt a clue about raising a kid or being a husband, so its probably easier if i just bail anyway and let the kid still think im dead, cuz i dont really care...ugh what a bonehead. i hate apathetic people more than jerks. |

i used to think "tore my knees up getting to you" (which is obvioiusly meaningless sex or paid sex over time) was directed at some guy she really wanted, but now i see it as chrissy is singing recounting what shes been through as a "party girl" or hooker which she went after when she was young, and insecure but now older/wiser and singing to a woman who was the tough "social manager of the establishment" and now i think chrissy is the older wiser manager of the establishment and the older chick is back "on her back" / lowered staus all pathetic and getting her nose rubbed in it by chrissy. |
