Tattered On My Sleeve Lyrics
Strike your name from my mind
Should I succeed empty space
Filled with might have been?
Never cared for might have been
Under gold lives in my dreams
To this day have I fallen away
Hear your breath lying next to me
Now my heart tattered
On my sleeve will I see
Your name before mine
All my life
Is falling away
As time goes by
Him thinking about breaking off an engagment, thats what i think, as in under gold, and your name before mine, correct me if Im wrong
This song is a fucking homerun! Fuck all dumb cunts!
he sunk to much time and effort into a girl only for her not to give a shit about it...so she left and didnt give him a chance and now he feels like shit...and doesnt want to think about "what may have been" if she hadnt left
give this a plus rating if this mans interpretation has ever happened to you...
give this a plus rating if this mans interpretation has ever happened to you...
i think that he feels like he isnt good enough that is why he breaks the engagement like Samkong said
i love the ending of this song
I would assume that it's about him breaking up with his girlfriend and trying to forget her. But I think "Tattered on my Sleeve" is a reference to tattoos, so did he get a tattoo with her name on it?? Kick ass song, too.
I think this song is about Phils father, who died years ago. He has a tattoo that says "Rodney", which is his fathers name.
"On my sleeve i will see, your name before mine" that describes that he sees "Rodney" on his sleeve and thinks of "Rodney Labonte" instead of "Phil Labonte"
one of my favorite songs...i cant describe the amazing epicness of this song. its on a whole new lvl. definately homerun.
^^ huh... maybe that's it. Regardless, this song kicks so much ass. The way he sings the "Wronged, am I foul? Never cared for might have been" is so sick, he does some awesome vocal work in the song, and the rythm is just so awesome... this might be my favorite song by them, but it's hard to choose.
What i get off this song is he feels like he's gotta put on the bad ass attitude to protect himself from getting hurt, but feeling as if his girl is breaking that wall down.
like... "Wronged, am I foul? Never cared for might have been" like maybe he pushes people away with his, "im rotton to the core" persona to protect himself.
but then goes to sing "Now my heart tattered on my sleeve and I Hear your breath lying next to me. Now my heart tattered On my sleeve, will I see Your name before mine?" he's relizing he does have feelings for her, but he's just afraid he's gonna get hurt.
Not to be that guy, but its "Wronged, am I foul?". :) The lyrics seem pretty straight forward, about how he isn't ready to get married, so he leaves here, and later regrets it and questions his decision.
