Pretty spot on, Sir. Just wrote basically the same thing about the whole "she wears white" thing before I read this. The "I quit girls" part is definite frustration in my eyes. Wanting a girl so badly there's no point in any other if you can't get that special one who has your stupid, stupid heart in a vice grip. Felt this for years over a girl. I'd tried to get her and failed, so I quit girls all together for a while. I'd then try and will myself to go after her again and then play out my own failure in my head and quit once again. Ohh stupid stupid brain. The whole idea is being so emotionally drained, uncontrollable and frustrated you quit. You'll be glad to know I got the bitch in the end and now I've trapped her in a relationship (although she assures me she's fine with it). Booyah. Also, I'm not being mean about her. It's just the way my emotional man brain words come out. |

I like your interpretation of "She was just... (pause) one of those girls". I always thought of it as a negative thing but this makes much more sense. I also agree with your lack of lyrics idea, don't want to ruin the feeling with too many words. I think the "she wears white" thing may be a metaphor though, rather than literal. Perhaps it's a metaphor for being angelic (like your catholic school girl idea) and perfect six days a week, and the seventh day is the day she gets to be free. Party do what ever she likes. "If you're lucky" implies she's something really special, something that is just like, wow, fuck, how even...? Definite teenage love brains here. Listened to this shit religiously through academy (our equivalent of high school) and still do. Don't go a day without screaming it in my head. |
