The Importance of Cocaine Lyrics
This hits too close to home for me
And I don't need to be reminded of this pain
I dwelt so long on the possible changes
Every step forward was a fall towards your demise
(The secret lives of wives)
And you beg me
Please don't go tonight
And I beg you
Please just come back down
To earth to build this trust
In which we have learned
To recreate
(The secret lives of wives)
And you beg me
Please don't go tonight
And I beg you
Please just come back down
Your pride won't let you ride
And you said
When will you give it up
I won't fail
I'm not leaving
You and me
And this will fall
How will we get it back up
(And I thought this candid smile was worn down)
(Lying to suit the mood, shop for ties to hang myself with)
And you say this ended in arrogance
Caused by my vanity
Oh, where will you be
Well maybe you just looked too hard
Or maybe I don't look enough
Who will decide our fate
How will you align this with love
How will you end this with glory
Oh, and don't let this go
And don't let me go
Just let this down
(Stricken close to the heat)
(And I'm biting a line, burn in wheat fields)
(Shop for ties to hang myself with)
And I don't need to be reminded of this pain
I dwelt so long on the possible changes
Every step forward was a fall towards your demise
And you beg me
Please don't go tonight
And I beg you
Please just come back down
In which we have learned
To recreate
And you beg me
Please don't go tonight
And I beg you
Please just come back down
And you said
When will you give it up
I won't fail
I'm not leaving
You and me
And this will fall
How will we get it back up
(Lying to suit the mood, shop for ties to hang myself with)
Caused by my vanity
Oh, where will you be
Or maybe I don't look enough
Who will decide our fate
How will you end this with glory
Oh, and don't let this go
And don't let me go
Just let this down
(And I'm biting a line, burn in wheat fields)
(Shop for ties to hang myself with)

I think the song is about being in love with an addict. He is leaving her because she won't give up her addiction. he not telling her to come down from a building, he telling her to come down from her high. the secret lives of wives- I think is hinting at her drug use,
pretty much the same thing i got from it. She has an addiction she wont give up.

"too hard to build this trust in which we have learned to recreate"...
"too hard to build this trust in which we have learned to recreate"
-as for this part shes begging him not to leave her, while all he wants is for her to come back down (to earth) from her high. So they can work on recreating there trust in one another, that has been broken before.
"Secret lives of wives"
-i think has to do with a girlfriend (wive) and her secret habit of drug use.
If what JonMess123 said is true then he could be singing from his girlfriends perspective...Try to look at everything from her perspective
"and you beg me please don't go tonight" -Could be singing from his girls perspective: as he begged her not to leave
"and I beg you please just come back down" -Girls perspective begging him to come back to down from his high
"come back down to earth...." -Once again his girl wanting to try to rebuild trust with him, which as been broken before for whatever reason.
He could be singing from her view of whatever situation they were going through. It had to do with some kind of addiction and drug use. I dunno maybe a view from her shoes
amazing song
this song actually has a meaning to it! big red had a girlfriend and she broke up with him for doing coke, if i remember correctly i wasnt really paying attention when he explained it, the beginning was suppose to have his ex's answering machine playing but we all said wow no, you are retarded
AWESOME LYRICS
IT TALKS ABOUT THIS GUY LEAVING HER GIRL BUT THE GIRL WONT LET HER GO
I agree.
And I thought the chorus, when he said, "and I beg you, please just come back down", it might mean she was about to jump off a building. Hmm. My opinion.
Love this band already.
"how will you align this with love how will you FADE this with glory"
That's just what it sounds like to me..
The lyrics say
(the secret lives of wives) and you beg me please don't go tonight and I beg you please just come back down
but I clearly hear
And I beg you please dont go tonight And I beg you please just come back down.
idk..i could be wrong.
ahh. i am in total love with this song. I love this band. this song has so much meaning its crazy.

this is what i hear in the lyrics ::
this hits too clase to home for me i dont need to be reminded of this pain it dwelled so long on the possible changes every step forward was a fall towards your demise
and i beg you please dont go tonight and i beg you please just come back down
too hard to build this trust in which we have learned to recreate
and i beg you please dont go tonight and i beg you please just come back down
and your pride wont let you ride and i said when will you give it up and you said im leaving you and this will fall when will it end
and you said this ended in arrogance caused by my vainity oh where will you be
well maybe you just looked too hard or maybe I don't look enough who will decide our fate
how will you align this with love how will you fade this with glory and oh don't let this go and oh don't let this go and oh don't let this go and just let this down
He VERY clearly says "and you beg me" THEN "and I beg you".
