Dry Kids Lyrics
We're dry kids
There's nothing you've got I want
Are you gonna leave?
So you keep it locked in
We murder each other each day
Knowing we'd never be
Crow-barred apart
And we try
For so long
To reach eleven
On a scale of one to ten
But we never get so far
I'm done
You're out of my system
Learning how to live
With how it feels
And we try
For so long
To reach eleven
On a scale of one to ten
But we never get so far
Me and you
Should have never left the start
Me and you should have never got this far
There's nothing you've got I want
Are you gonna leave?
So you keep it locked in
We murder each other each day
Knowing we'd never be
Crow-barred apart
For so long
To reach eleven
On a scale of one to ten
But we never get so far
You're out of my system
Learning how to live
With how it feels
For so long
To reach eleven
On a scale of one to ten
But we never get so far
Should have never left the start
Me and you should have never got this far

i'd like to know what this song's about. any ideas?
It's my worst Embrace song, personally. I can not understand how something as bland as this can be among their most popular b-sides and the title track to their forthcoming b-sides collection.
The lyrics (as Danny does) encorporates a lot of expressions and metaphors - but I'm guessing that it has a lot to do with kind of a 'love-hate' relationship in the way that siblings constantly try to get the better of each other.
Although (again as Danny does) I think he's elaborating that and explaining the depth of these afore-mentioned feelings.
Just my opinions, hope it answers your question.
