I can't believe that there aren't more comments on such an amazing song! I think that the narrator is in a relationship where she keeps getting let down by the other person. She's saying that it isn't a good idea for them to love each other because either or both of them hurting the other person. which is why when she says: love me bad idea oh no flash back whisper i barely hear okay now come back They seem to have an off again on again relationship, so they've obviously been hurt before but keep coming back to each other because ultimately they do love each other. Which explains why she's "holding herself up for each letdown." But clearly she's coming to the realisation its better to just end things and let go because in certain ways they still don't know each other ("I don't know you but I want to now") and while she wants to get to know him better she keeps having flashbacks to the hard times, the letdowns and the arguments where maybe he isn't actually letting her get to know him or he's pushing her away. Which is why in spite of everything it feels good to be away from him ("breaks but it feels good")and through each break up shes learned to let him go a little bit more until she realises that the back and forth is getting old and that there's a world out there that she needs to see without him. Such an awesome song! |

I think my interpretation is a bit different from most peoples, to me this song is about falling in love for the first time and losing your virginity to someone. The line "Both under influence", could mean being drunk, but in this sense it could also mean being under the heady influence of passion and desire, which is why their "Mind is a razor blade" I also believe that the last verse: "And you You knew the hand of the devil And you Kept us awake with wolves' teeth Sharing different heartbeats In one night" is about the girl telling him about all of the hardships she has endured, and the idea that them being together and his love just makes her feel a bit better about it all. I havent heard the original or anything, so this is only my interpretation from the way he sings and plays this song, I think its beautiful and hopeful though. |
