What Are You Into? Lyrics
I can't sit with an angry soul
Makes me sick, I can't think straight
I fall apart when I think of the world
Think of the world I'm in
Once in a paper doll world
I felt the pain of a summer
Porcelain skin that the sun would soon hurt
Such were the pains of my wanders
Poor little girl with a sunburn
Poor little girl with a sunburn
Once as the shadows drew near
Branches were cracking like fingers
My little light got caught in our fears
Those were the fears in my dream, dear
As for my trembling white fingers
As for these trembling white fingers
I can't sit with an angry soul
Makes me sick, I can't think straight
I fall apart when I think of the world
Think of the world I'm in
Kill her right now
You'll regret it if you wait
It's over when it's lost
Sell me the secrets of love in a pint of blood
I can't sit with an angry soul
I can't sit with an angry soul
I can't sleep when you're angry
I can't sleep when you're angry
I can't sleep when you're angry
I can't...
He's killed now
We could still remake
So wonderful
We could be rhapsody in talking form, from now on
Don't hold on, just give me something to swallow
It's best to dance while it burns
If it must burn, if it must burn
I could be anything wonderful
Makes me sick, I can't think straight
I fall apart when I think of the world
Think of the world I'm in
I felt the pain of a summer
Porcelain skin that the sun would soon hurt
Such were the pains of my wanders
Poor little girl with a sunburn
Poor little girl with a sunburn
Branches were cracking like fingers
My little light got caught in our fears
Those were the fears in my dream, dear
As for my trembling white fingers
As for these trembling white fingers
Makes me sick, I can't think straight
I fall apart when I think of the world
Think of the world I'm in
You'll regret it if you wait
It's over when it's lost
Sell me the secrets of love in a pint of blood
I can't sit with an angry soul
I can't sleep when you're angry
I can't sleep when you're angry
I can't sleep when you're angry
I can't...
We could still remake
So wonderful
We could be rhapsody in talking form, from now on
Don't hold on, just give me something to swallow
It's best to dance while it burns
If it must burn, if it must burn

Feel free to correct, and if it sounds right I'll change it. It's hard to hear what they're saying sometimes, especially in the last verse.
I think this song has to do with a vampire girl. Vampires can't go out in sunlight ("the sun would soon hurt"), are generally pale ("porcelain skin", "trembling white fingers").
"Sell me the secrets of love in a pint of blood." This sounds vampirey to me. When I think "vampires," I think "blood" and "romance". :p
I wasn't sure whether it was "Rapsey" or "rhapsody" in the last verse-- all the other transcriptions of the lyrics say that it's Rapsey but I heard rhapsody. A rhapsody is "exalted or excessively enthusiastic expression of feeling, especially in speech or writing."
Once again, feel free to correct.
I don't think this song has anything to do with vampires... I think it is more about loss of innocence.
The paperdoll world is childhood, childhood gets spoiled by things, represented by the sunburn.
I also thinks its a lot about the world in general and the world's loss of innocence. How the world is so messed up but we can remake it with love, and remembering that innocnece instead of killing her: ie the Earth.
And then at the end again, shows that idea of a child-like innocence, I could be anything wonderful. Children are told that thay can be anything they dream of.
I love that it seems to combine ideas so that its about two things at once. The loss of innocence as we become adults and the loss of the world's innocence i generaland how we can try to stop it.
