The Black Keys – Mind Eraser Lyrics 11 years ago
"When I need to replace her
I am the mind eraser
Anything goes
Yeah, anything goes"

The guy believes he can erase anybody from his mind.

"Got this sin in her brain
But she ain't gonna see me again
See me again
This I know"

I think this means the guy has decided she will never see him again, or at least become a part of his life, after she broke up.

"But oh, deep down
I can't let go
Oh, don't let it be over, over, oh
Oh, don't let it be over, let it be over, oh"

But despite how he thinks he'll erase her from his mind, he knows he just can't.

"Seen me stack up my woes
Into a wall around a rose
Now I'm the rose
And now she knows
Oh, it hurts so
I can't let go"

I don't know what's the interpretation of this but maybe it could mean that she left knowing it'll hurt him and he couldn't let go.

And not related to the meaning of the song, but as it's the last track in the album, I can say "Don't let it be over".
