this song is obviously about heroin..let me break down the lyrics for you... here goes! 1.you cruel device= your needle. your blood like ice= how it feels when the heroin is in your veins. one look could kill= metaphor for how strong of a drug it is. my pain your thrill= how the drug loves to see you hurting for more of it. 2.i want to love you but i better not touch= he wants it but it's too addictive. i want to hold you but my senses tell me to stop= once again too addictive. i want to kiss you but i want it too much= the cravings for it is too much. i want to taste you but your lips are venomous posion=too addictive once again. your poison running through my veins= obviously a reference to shooting up. i don't wanna break these chains= he doesn't want to stop even though his addicting is chaining him down. 3.Your mouth, so hot= you start getting hot before you get your fix of dope. Your web, I'm caught= he's strung out and caught up in the drug. Your skin, so wet= talking about how to heroin is wet when it's in the spoon. Black lace, on sweat= black lace is a metaphor for heroin and he's talking about sweating from anticipating his next shot. 4.I hear you calling and it's needles and pins= needles and pins are what you get when you do a shot of dope that is really good. also called "a rush" I want to hurt you just to hear you screaming my name=self explanatory. Don't want to touch you but you're under my skin= dont want it but it's too late to stop because he is already addicted and the needle is under his skin. I want to taste you but your lips are venomous poison= the drug is poision. You're poison, running through my veins= obviously talking about heroin in his veins. |
