The Sweets

sounds like there was past troubles. this song. it carries such a feeling on desolation, like walking alone in the desert at dusk, or just being alone in a big city. i really love it.

This song is about an unrequited love. She's in love with a man who once loved her but is now beginning to fall in love with someone else. I think she is trying to commit suicide by drowning herself in a pool one night, believing that ending her life will save her from her own pain and anger. I think the can represents their old love that used to be filled with sweets of many colors, kind of packed away in a fridge, and slowly it started emptying. When it finally emptied they started playing a symbolic game of kick the can with each other. Kind of a weird interpretation I know but it just makes sense to me

I think this song is very meaningful, but I can't quite put my finger on it to what it means. My best guess is that there's someone who feels isolated and lonely and is in despair; as well as guilt and trouble. I just love this slow-paced sad song, I can never get sick of listening to the YYYs; especially listening to this song... I love it.

i think the song has feelings of lonliness and oppression. kind of like everyone is crowding her. it's also like she's thinking about someone she used to know. like they were friends or lovers or something, but the other person changed into something she didn't like.

to me, this song is about jealousy, and maybe disappointment too. she might be jealous that a man's affections lie elsewhere, and disappointed that whilst she feels something for him, he doesn't feel the same for her. her jealousy could be the green shadow, he could be the coldest that hasn't thawed yet.. you get the idea. though of course this is all speculation!

this is such a pretty song musicaly but the lyrics sound like somebody is misleading her where it says " who you fallin' for who you fallin' for who's lies" or being decepted somehow.the comment about jelousy kinda makes sense to though. hmm... i dont know , but i love this song.

Brilliant song! Surpised about the low comments, I think it's one of the best on their albums.

the sweets and warrior are without any doubt the best songs on the syb album. this one is soooo beautiful. and it is so easy to relate to. it is amazing.

i agree with monkeykillzbanana actually, i also think it's about that... its sad u know... when its truly over.

i think this songs about a girl who's realizing her bf is cheating on her...the lyrics are pretty sad but they make me wanna dance! i think this is one of the best YYY songs, musically speaking... the guitar in the final part is so alive!
