| The Pretty Reckless – Where Did Jesus Go? Lyrics | 13 years ago |
|
The way I see it, I think the song is about her. It could all be very metaphorical. "Her father sold her to the trade when she was just a child She was seventeen and never ever learned to smile" - this could be about how she went into the entertainment business when she was very young and how every time she smiled it was purely for the press and to keep a good reputation, and never really smiled honestly. The whole suicide thing could be about her turning to "the dark side" and changing her image. "Her name was Angel" - she was the perfect girl, she was keeping her "good girl" image. "She needed an angel to love And no one sent her an angel She needed an angel to love her But no one sent her an angel" - everybody started liking her because she became famous, and not for who she is, and she started to see that nobody is honest with her and everybody is just trying to use her for something they want. And as for the "devil's advocate" - that's obvious here, people just start talking bad about people that have the kind of image and style she has. Of course there are people who like her like that, but I'm guessing that's about the people who turned on her as she changed, because they didn't approve of who she is becoming, and the "you don't know the half of it" is to all those people, how they have no idea what she's been through and why she is the way she is. At least that's how I see it, could be wrong, though. |

I see that this song is actually about a friend of theirs that passed away, and a lot of people say that it's about a break up, but I always relate this song to my best friend. I was in love with him for a while, not sure if I still am, and at one point I kind of confessed, and was scared we might not be friends after that. From the moment I heard it for the first time I related the song to that situation, and it never even occurred to me that it sounds like a song about a break up until my sister pointed that out. In my head it was always about a girl that's in love with her best friend, and is scared she'll lose him when she tells him how she feels. |

Oh, I had the same problem with my best friend. He and I kind of had a fling when we met, he actually had a girlfriend back then, so it only lasted a few days between us and we ended it. And having that secret made us closer, eventually becoming best friends. That was exactly 2 years ago. I think it stared on the 6th of August, which would make it 2 years and 2 days ago, to be precise. I had a boyfriend for a long time, a year and a half almost, and I really loved him, but lately he's been behaving really bad towards me, we would brake every two days literally, and that best friend of mine was always like an escape from the problems with my boyfriend. Every time I'd get upset about him I'd remember that best friend, and all of our memories, plans, conversations etc, and it would make me feel better. When we became best friends I stared having some emotions, and fell completely in love. I never really got over that. And when I finally think I did, I see him again and it all comes rushing back. And it's always been like that. We don't see each other for a while, I think I'm over him, then I see him and just get back to where I started. Although this song never reminded me of him. The one that did is Brighter by Paramore, actually. This song reminded me of another guy I liked, but never could be with 'cause one of my friends had a crush on him, and he had a crush on me. And now it reminds me of this guy I met like a month ago, and I think I'm falling for him, though I'm back with my ex, so I have to ignore those new feelings. Very complicated stories there to be told. |

I believe the song is about her cheating on her boyfriend, or wanting to cheat. "Now when I caught myself I had to stop myself from saying something that I should've never thought of you" - she caught herself thinking about him, and thinking how she loves him, and had to stop herself from saying something like that, 'cause it was wrong. "I hate this, I hate this, you're not the one I believe in" - she has somebody already in her life, so he isn't the one she believes in. "I know in my heart it's not you, but now I know what I want, I want, I want, oh no, I should've never thought" - she knows he's not the one in her heart, but in the end she realizes she wants him, and how she never should've even thought about something like that. It could also be about a woman that's married and has the desire to be with someone else, which would explain the "with God as my witness" part. Anyway, that's how I understood the song. Mostly about someone who want to be with someone he/she knows he/she shouldn't be with. |
