This song is about stephanie seymour, clearly. "It was a bargain for the summer And I thought I had it all" -referring to their happier times together "I was the one who gave you everything The one who took the fall" -referring to how he idolised her and gave her everthing but was the one left heartbroken by it all, You were the one who would do anything The one who can’t recall Where she was while she was sleepin' In another women’s bed Or the doctor's or the lawyer's Or the stranger that she met" -she moved on as if he meant nothing. Axl believed she was cheating on him and she was known to be a bed-hopper who would sleep with anyone to get what she wanted. "Cocaine in the hall All the way from California" -referring to the cocaine party stephanie threw at their house while axlw as in calfornia. he came back to the house and went crazy because stephanies son dylan was upstairs, huge fight followed and stephanie claim axl dragged her feet through broken glass in a rage "Broken glass and cigarettes" resulting in them splitting up. And your ways around the laws- the way she go away with everything because she was a supermodel "That keep you up and sitting pretty On a pedestal or bed"- bed has been changed from 'men' again a reference to her supermodel status and how she just looks so pretty but really isnt nice "And now you're sleeping like an angel"- very cleverly proving he's talking about stephanie. She was one of a few Victoria's secret Angel. "Never mind who gave you head" sung you gave head, her cheating. "cause knowin' you It won't change a damn thing But there was a time" His teardrops and pain meant nothing to her, she went on and started her happy life with another man. "There was a time I would do anything for you" explaining how much he loved her, he would have done anything for her. Axl's own favourite song, my favourite song, absolutely amazing, tells alot |

This song was written by axl in 1992/3 after he broke up with Stephanie seymour and hence is about her. Its extremely emotional and in it he talks about not being able to let ther love die because he believes she still loves him and holds a special light for him, even though she may try deny it. She wa the love of axl's life and TWAT is aso about her, friends say he never ever got over her. In 2000 axl stated himself that a few songs on the album were about stephanie and he still has the love for her . he'll 'never say goodbye.' it's also believed that chinese democracy is a way for axl to communicate with dylan, stephanies son (don't cry video) who axl loved and was a father figure to. When axl and stephanie split, believing she was cheating, stephanie never let axl see dylan again and axl's pain over this is shown in the video for estranged, which was written before axl split with stephanie but the video was made after they had just broke up and at the start axl is on the cupboard sleeping and dreaming about himself with dylan with real footage, poor man. amazing song, really really really powerful... |
