Cats In Heat Lyrics
Pulled from the liquor cabinet
Choose your mood and then start to wreak havoc
With your exaggerated sadness
The sadness that ensues
This is when I start to lose
Interrupted by flickering candles
The darkness that softened the angles
Though I am the reason
I am the reason
That I'm filling empty spaces
Where you left your mark
Take two steps back from all of this
Remember what you started with
It was nothing at all
Back in Queens,
Where the stifling heat overpowers the air conditioning
You can keep on crawling away
But you're never gonna escape
No, not today
I'm filling in the empty spaces
Where you left your mark
In the soothing peace of car alarms and cats in heat
I can hear you breathe
Ba-ba-da-da-da
Keep on telling me that time is no enemy
A worthless struggle to step back
And
Choose your mood and then start to wreak havoc
With your exaggerated sadness
The sadness that ensues
This is when I start to lose
The darkness that softened the angles
Though I am the reason
I am the reason
Where you left your mark
Take two steps back from all of this
Remember what you started with
It was nothing at all
Where the stifling heat overpowers the air conditioning
You can keep on crawling away
But you're never gonna escape
No, not today
Where you left your mark
In the soothing peace of car alarms and cats in heat
I can hear you breathe
Keep on telling me that time is no enemy
A worthless struggle to step back
And

This song is my favorite by them, but i cant figure out what it is about. Can any one help me?
So anyone have an opinion on what they think this about? I am absolutely in love with this song. Also anyone know a place for a good tab for it? thanks a bunch. beautiful song.
i luff this song :D i masturbate over it... only on sundays tho...
This is definately one of my favorites. (along with petals and snow day)
Well to me that directly related to my own experience..of someone who had always had commitment problems or just problems in general. Someone who had always wanted to be with me for years but when the oppurtunity came up he didn't really bother trying to change to make things work and eventually things ended because he ran away from his problems instead of trying to fix them.
That I’m filling the empty spaces Where you left your mark Take two steps back from all of this Remember what you started with It was nothing at all
(someone not realizing the extent of what they had and taking it for granted.)
Back in Queens, Where the stifling heat overpowers the air-conditioning You can keep on crawling away But you’re never gonna escape No, not today
(to me: Someone who instead of trying to fix things or themselves keep on "crawling away" from them instead to try to "escape" but...as it says "but you're never going to escape")
So basically I think it's somewhat about someone in a way taking a relationship for granted? and soon screwing it up with repeated mistakes..and realizing they should change but not.
yea, this song is amazing.
his voice on key and perfect.
This is one of the most amazing, perfect, songs I have heard in a long time. When I first found The Honorary Title, I was blown away, Jarrod has such strong vocals that basically give me chills every time I listen, and his lyrics are pure genius. And 'Cats In Heat' to me, feels like someone knows that their relationship just isn't working, but is addicted to the person, and doesn't want it to end. That if he hopes hard enough, things will be alright.
I think it is about relationship between two people that didnt work out. He knows he was the problem and the reason why it didnt work " Though I am the reason I am the reason That I’m filling the empty spaces Where you left your mark" but he couldnt/or didnt try to fix it so now he is left alone trying to escape the pain by drowning the void the person left in him with alcohol "Pulled from the liquor cabinet Choose your mood and then start to wreck havoc"
I love this song!
