"You're bent over the grand piano. Feel my eyes slide over you. Legs that curve the same as hers could run as quickly too." --- obviously he's with a girl, in the middle of intimacy, but she reminds him of someone else." --- "My lazy tongue lies low and ready. It cannot seem to speak its words. I'd axe it off to shut me up but you've already heard the murders have occured." --- He wants to tell her that he really still loves his previous girlfriend/wife... what have you. He finally tells her, but says it in a way in which he didn't want to. --- "The path into this heart is littered with corpses and strewn with body parts of those who came before And of stronger souls than you. So just give up." --- He doesn't exactly have murder on his conscience, but he does believe that he messed up in the past and "murdered" his other relationships. And he hurt girls who were more resistant to being hurt than his current girl, and wants her to just give up on him. ------------------------------------------ "Take me where they cannot see us and lay me down on coffin rich dirt. Tonight, I am a Transylvanian. A taste of you won't hurt." --- He wants his current lover to figuratively "kill" him, but in reality, just leave him completely and, because in his mind, he is already dead. He looks at himself as a "vampire" for a second, in the sense that no matter how many times someone "kills" his relationships, he will always come back for more, until he finds his old lover again. But before his current lover goes, he wants her to know that he does care for her, and that's why he's doing it. --------------------------- "Because I am numb to every feeling and stubborn ears will hear no sound. My last few rounds have left me reeling. My teeth are on the ground and I've taken pound for pound." --- He really just says that he won't miss his current lover if she left, because he knows that she will be better off without him, and his last few girlfriends, he's felt the same. He looks at himself as dead at this point." ---------------------------------- "Don't go getting your hopes up." --- Pretty self-explanatory, but he's telling her that she can't do anything to help. He's just a lost cause, and he's doomed to be alone and miserable because of his past mistakes. ----------------------------------- Thanks for reading guys. This is my favorite song for forever and a day. You stay classy Planet Earth!!! |
