If you want it did you never want for more
The girlscout fell from grace
If you want it did you never want for more
I spit inside her face
If you want it did you never want for more
The lines that cut right through
If you want it did you never want for more
The numbness that was you

What I want, what will I need
To sacrifice what I believe
My little girlscout, your mouth is getting sore
Will you love me any less if I hurt you any more

If you want it did you never want for more
Cleansing every sore
If you want it did you never want for more
Sold from door to door
If you want it did you never want for more
Finish what you start
If you want it did you never want for more
Dehumanize my heart

What I want, what will I need
To sacrifice what I believe
My little girlscout, your mouth is getting sore
Will you love me any less if I hurt you any more

And I was never your #1 fan
How can I grow a girl when you never were a man
and I was never nice and I've gone too far
You don't need to be nice when you've been kissed by a star
Kissed by a star, kissed by a star
Hurt by a star, fucked by a star
Kissed by a star, kissed by a star
Kissed by a star

Fuck what I want
Fuck what I need
I'll sacrifice what I believe
My little girlscout, your mouth is getting sore
Will you love me any less if I hurt you any more

    I agree with 'vapid' - I also imagined the ‘Girlscout’ to be a groupie. Girl scouts are typically innocent young girls and groupies/fanatics are typically young girls who are seemingly innocent and perhaps society thinks they 'should' be girl scouts instead.

    I think that the person who's perspective the lyrics are based upon (be that Jessicka herself or another 'rock-star', or perhaps Jessicka is the girl scout herself?) treats the girl badly and with little respect, but the girl still seems to love them.

    The person sees that the groupie really loves them but, instead of letting them down gently, they hurt them more in an attempt to drive them away ("Will you love me any less if I hurt you any more ?")

    They claim that the endless rounds of sex, drugs and rock 'n' roll, have 'dehumanized' their heart and that all they want to do is 'fuck what I want'. But really, they are human deep inside and only claim to be dehumanized because of the status they have been given.

    Also, to me, the lines - "Kissed by a star, kissed by a star. Hurt by a star, fucked by a star" are the rock-star's admittal of being hurt by the groupie and that the careless front they put on is a direct result of how the groupie makes them feel. They are saying that the groupie has had her moment of glory and 'fucked a star' and that now she should just leave as she has ‘served her purpose'.

    The more you look into these lyrics, the more intersting the whole situation becomes and it really makes you think about the true feelings between ‘rock stars’ and their ‘groupies’.

This song is def a twin to "Unfair" (a song she has been quoted as saying is about falling in love with someone who is already in a relationship) so it is presumably about the same person. Given the references to buying an apartment and not being able to see her love interest "after tonight," it's most likely that she's moving away and she'll "wait a day to break the bad news" (i.e. notifying him that she's leaving once she's already gone). And, of course, the fact that she sees in him a fellow "idealist" and "dreamer" (terms commonly given to people with the INFP personality on the Myers–Briggs Type Indicator (MBTI)) portends that she'll always be left wondering if they would've been perfect together.

In regards to the meaning of this song: Before a live performance on the EP Five Stories Falling, Geoff states “It’s about the last time I went to visit my grandmother in Columbus, and I saw that she was dying and it was the last time I was going to see her. It is about realizing how young you are, but how quickly you can go.” That’s the thing about Geoff and his sublime poetry, you think it’s about one thing, but really it’s about something entirely different. But the lyrics are still universal and omnipresent, ubiquitous, even. So relatable. That’s one thing I love about this band. I also love their live performances, raw energy and Geoff’s beautiful, imperfectly perfect vocals. His voice soothes my aching soul.

This song seemingly tackles the methods of deception those who manipulate others use to get victims to follow their demands, as well as diverting attention away from important issues. They'll also use it as a means to convince people to hate or kill others by pretending acts of terrorism were committed by the enemy when the acts themselves were done by the masters of control to promote discrimination and hate. It also reinforces the idea that these manipulative forces operate in various locations, infiltrating everyday life without detection, and propagate any and everywhere. In general, it highlights the danger of hidden agendas, manipulation, and distraction, serving as a critique of those who exploit chaos and confusion to control and gain power, depicting a cautionary tale against falling into their traps. It encourages us to question the narratives presented to us and remain vigilant against manipulation in various parts of society.

I think much like another song “Anti-Matter” (that's also on the same album as this song), this one is also is inspired by a horrifying van crash the band experienced on Nov 3, 2022. This, much like the other track, sounds like it's an extension what they shared while huddled in the wreckage, as they helped frontman Garrett Russell stem the bleeding from his head wound while he was under the temporary effects of a concussion. The track speaks of where the mind goes at the most desperate & desolate of times, when it just about slips away to all but disconnect itself, and the aftermath.
