I heard a distant early warning
But I chose to ignore it
It came back and bit me
Seems like we're victims of bad timing
'Cause you wanted more than I did
I can't give you what you need

She said "hold me, hold me, closely, closely"
That's when I should have ran
3-2-1, it's the final meltdown I want out now
I wish I would've known to doubt you
I'm better off alone without you
3-2-1, it's the same old story, love gets gory
Why'd we have to go and change things?
Now touching you is such a strange thing

I got so caught up in the moment
That I forgot what it all meant
But still I'd do it all again
You said, "no strings attached, I'm wild"
I didn't know you're in denial
And you became my ball and chain

She said "hold me, hold me, closely, closely"
That's when I should have ran
3-2-1, it's the final meltdown I want out now
I wish I would've known to doubt you
I'm better off alone without you
3-2-1, it's the same old story, love gets gory
Why'd we have to go and change things?
Now touching you is such a strange thing

She said "hold me, hold me, closely, closely"
"Hold me, hold me, closely, closely"
That's when I should have ran

3-2-1, it's the final meltdown I want out now
I wish I would've known to doubt you
I'm better off alone without you
3-2-1, it's the same old story, love gets gory
Why'd we have to go and change things?
Now touching you is such a strange thing

She's holding on while she can
Why'd we have to go and change things?
She's holding on while she can
Now touching you is such a strange thing

She's so out of hand
I'm dreading all the baggage and what it brings
She's so out of hand
But still I'd do it all again.

    I love this song. i think it's about 2 people in a relashionship andthey said they were gonna keep it casual,no strings attached but the girl changed and now she wants something serious.

    FINALLY one i can give a meaning on. because, jacob told us waht it was about at one of his shows. It's about a girl,and him. they were having there one night stand thing, and she was dropping hints that she wanted a real relationship,but he chose to ignore it,and just keep going. then she said "dont worry,im no in it for real" but then she did become attached and stuff. and he didnt want that. but he would still do it over again. hehe. i feel so smart. and yeah,i basically just repeated waht everyone else said.

    Actually, the song isn't about Jake. It's about some dude who worked on the album with them (I forget who exactly). I believe the guy and this chick were roomates, then they hooked-up and I guess she wanted to have a relationship after that, but he didn't want to. So yeah, he was kind of stuck in this situation because he couldn't get away because they were living together at the time. The lyrics explain it all...
