PDA

Wow... rape... religion. This one seems to be all over the place. This band tends to avoid songs with social commentary as the main theme. It's usually personal and introspective when it comes to lyrics. I feel this is about a relationship that went bad. Really bad.

"You will not reach me I am resenting a position that is past resentment And now I can't consider and now there is this distance, so..."

He feels so much anger towards her that he almost feels nothing at all. And he actually feels terrible about the fact that he is feeling so callous. He is "past resenting" and so is she. Ever been so angry that you didn't care anymore? There is really nothing left to even talk about because things between them are that bad. They are emotionally miles apart with no hope of reconcilliation.

"You're so cute when you're frustrated, dear You're so cute when you're sedated, dear" He says he only likes her when she is frustrated and sedated. He's being sarcastic and mocking her as in:"You're a nice person... when your sleeping" kind of way. It seems they never really got along too well.

"You are a past dinner, the last winner I'm raping all around me Until the last drop is behind you"

A past dinner, referring to time spent together. The last winner, referring to her being the one who dumped him. He's raping around himself.. raping, means to take, forcefully, something against the will of another. It's about power through action in most cases. He is making a fuss, perhaps expressing his anger, tearing himself apart (or maybe the relationshp?) as she walks away from things, thus the "drops" left behind her.

"You are the only person who's completely certain there's nothing here to be into That is all that you can do. You are a past sinner, the last winner and everything we've come to" She was "certain" there was nothing left of their relationship and wanted out. She seems to have screwed up quite a bit in the relationship as well.

"But you cannot safely say while I will be away That you will not consider sadly how you helped me to stray" It also sounds like he feels that she has changed him in a way he does not like. Perhaps he has become bitter as result of all that has taken place between them. Also it gives me the feeling he's saying that she is making a major mistake in leaving the relationship and will regret this later. But then again, he really doesn't want her.

The sleep tight, grim rite of the chorus is kind of like telling someone to get lost and goodbye with veiled anger. It's very sarcastic too because he talks about having 200 couches for her to go away to sleep on figuratively.

My 2 cents...
