What would I do?
Lonely as you
Pleasure or pain I can choose
What would I do?
Lonely as you
Pleasure or pain I can choose
Wake up you're dreamin' I can't stand your screamin'
Drowning out these prayers just some words without meanin'
Spare all the preachin' my secret's worth keepin'
No one understands like I do
Keep out of reach I'm your leadin' deletion
Hide behind these masks
Though they still see right through them
Every now and then
You're down and out my friend
Down and out again
Down and out again
Down and out again, but I'm down with you
One more time for the last time
One more time for release
One more time for the last time
Everyone wants to believe
Blame it on youth, all these years I've been losin'
Blame it on the past, it's the last place I knew you
Blame all the children their rage and their ruin
Blame it on the black and the blue
Every now and then
You're down and out my friend
Down and out again
Down and out again
Down and out again, but I'm down with you
One more time for the last time
One more time for release
One more time for the last time
Everyone wants to believe
Every now and then
You're down and out my friend
Down and out again
Down and out again
Down and out again, but I'm down with you
One more time for the last time
One more time for release
One more time for the last time
Everyone wants to believe
One more time for the last time
One more time for release
One more time for the last time
Everyone wants to believe
One more time for the last time
One more time for release
One more time for the very last time
Everyone wants to believe, all right
Lonely as you
Pleasure or pain I can choose
What would I do?

Wake up
You're dreaming
I can't stand your screaming
Drowning out these prayers
Just some words without meaning
Spare all the preaching
My secret's worth keeping
No one understands like I do
Keep out of reach
I'm your leading deletion
Hide behind these masks
Though they still see right through them
- I think this is song is about how you pretend everything is ok and you just ignore how you really feel so people won’t notice, you just get on with your life and push everything aside and hope no one notices that you’re unhappy and you don’t want to confide in anyone because they wont understand, they’ll try to tell you that they know what you’re going through etc but you know that they will never understand because only you can but secretly you wish you could give up the act and just let it all out.
but maybe not, im no good at this sort of stuff, but thats what it means to me.
one of the best on the album
Blame it on youth, all these years I've been losing
Blame it on the past, it's the last place I knew you
Blame all the children, their rage and ruin
Blame it on the black and the blue
Lonely as you
Pleasure or pain
I can't choose
He's been left alone. He's bored. What to do?
- Pleasure = masturbation
- Pain = self-harm
Whether or not the rest of the song backs this up is unknown to me. I just heard the first verse and being a teenager that's the first thing that came to mind. =D
"Every now and then, you're down and out my friend" - *eyebrow raised higher!*
