I'm Your Puppet

she loves him so much but he's just using her. she can't stand it, knowing that he doesn't really care like she does. but at the same time, she can't stop loving him. she just wishes he would change & love her back.

i was in a relationship like this recently. "how weak is that / wish i was worth it, to you" the speaker is in a relationship in which she loves him, but she knows he doesn't reciprocate that love, it seems as if he's just using her for sex. ("i'll undress if you need it, but please don't need it") she knows that he won't be there for her in bad times ("review my wishes, for fair weather...") but still she stays with him anyway and accepts it. very sad.

she really loves him, and he uses her. even though she tries to walk away, she is too attatched to him and she knows that anything he asks of her, she will do. it sounds like"he" may have a grilfriend or something, because it is implied to be a secret relationship. she feels weak and ashamed of being the girl in the shadows, but knows she loves him too much to not be,

"How weak is that?" gets me every time.

Yes, about being used but unable to stop because she loves him.

i agree with everything everyone's said, but i came up with my own interpretation of the second stanza:

weave a secret I will sweep it beaneath the carpet where you'll keep it how weak is that? wish I was worth it to you

i agree with the "don't tell" comment. "weave a secret" - basically, do what he's been doing.. abusing and using. "i will sweep it/beneath the carpet" - she'll brush it away, just like everything else. "where you'll keep it" - he obviously has no problem doing so.

it really is a beautiful song.

this song is so cute. she sings it so well. i love how most of their lyrics are about being used but loving it because she loves him. its so relateable to girls.

weave a secret I will sweep it beaneath the carpet where you'll keep it how weak is that? wish I was worth it to you

my take, is that this is about a "don't tell" relationship. she's being used, but is too naive to walk away & she loves him; he has her wrapped around his finger like a "puppet" it makes her feel worthless.

why do we do it?

i relate, sadly.

it's not weave, it's we've as in we have. says so on her site. not that it really makes a huge difference but yah.

this is exactly like every girl! Treated like crap, but they seem to always go for it.. Really picked it up well I think

meredith has a lot of songs like this, it worries me. she has such a beautiful voice.
