You Me at Six – Blue Eyes Don't Lie Lyrics 15 years ago
I think what they are trying to get across in this song is the mis-use of the word love.
people say it all the time and really have absolutely no idea what it means... at all.

apply it to the lyrics and it makes 200x more sense than it did before.
look at it this way.:
"i love you."
the three words through your bedroom door

why say something safe,
when i can blow your mind away?
its a game only liars play.
(as in people dont know what it really means but they say it anyways.)

Cute Is What We Aim For – Teasing to Please (Left Side, Strong Side) Lyrics 16 years ago
And so typically
And so typically
Soft, set back and perfectly dropped
Tough and learn, and so perfectly taught

--i think this part is shaant is describing a girl who puts on a mask of perfection. She's beautiful and awesome pretty much.

I am as he does

--here he talks about how she is only awesome to you because she is agreeing with everything youre saying and making you believe that she is everything you want in a person by making herself sound perfect.

you are as she was

--this is him saying that he was just like her at one point, putting up a front and on the inside just being a total liar to whoever he was with.

And that�s because
And that�s because
But you never try
But you never try

--i think this part is just going into detail about how she's so awesome without even trying. (when really she's lying to him.)

Cause conflict and make your top pick

--shaant saying figure out what will make me fall in love with you and use it to your advantage.

Restitch my ripped jeans
And take the old ones
Take the old ones out back
Sew them tight at the seams please
I�ve got so many ripped knees

--here he's saying let me tell you all my secrets and problems then you fix them.

I�m selfish as selfish as comes
You�re giving me a run for my money
Honey

--this is where he discovers who she really is and HOW she really is, and he's saying "i used to be like you. I was selfish. Now im seeing how selfish you are in your ways, and youre much worse than i ever was."

This is a hint that you take
And you pull and you find a way to get out of what you got yourself into
But when you try
But when you try to get out you�ll never find
That most definitely I will be attracted to you

--i believe this is him saying that she is realizing that she doesnt want to be with him anymore but he is in love with her and she doesnt have a good way out of the relationship because he finds everything she does amazing because of the fake mask she wears.

If you pick my left side

--his "left side" is referring to his heart and his love.

Because you know how we do

--this refers to all the guys she has made fall in love with her, then broken their hearts.

I�m selfish as selfish as comes
You�re giving me a run for my money
Honey

--again.. referring to how he has done this stuff himself to other girls.



this is just what i get out of the song. it makes sense to me anyways?
