Ricochet! Lyrics
welcome back to
where I'm gonna to have you
shell shock - fall back
every one I see through
watch your head spin
like a mesocyclone
bouncing off the walls
now there's nowhere to run
like a bullet
meant to be shot
you're the target
dead on the spot
when I focus
I never miss
it starts with a kiss
she ricochets
and you don't notice
she's in your head
and you just don't notice
let the sweat fall
find me in the back stall
let it snow down
now we're gonna deck halls
I hit the bullseye
making all the boys cry
I hit the main line
breaking through the night sky
like a bullet
meant to be shot
you're the target
dead on the spot
when I focus
I never miss
it starts with a kiss
where I'm gonna to have you
shell shock - fall back
every one I see through
watch your head spin
like a mesocyclone
bouncing off the walls
now there's nowhere to run
meant to be shot
you're the target
dead on the spot
when I focus
I never miss
it starts with a kiss
and you don't notice
she's in your head
and you just don't notice
find me in the back stall
let it snow down
now we're gonna deck halls
I hit the bullseye
making all the boys cry
I hit the main line
breaking through the night sky
meant to be shot
you're the target
dead on the spot
when I focus
I never miss
it starts with a kiss

She's ruthless. She plays the boys seduces them then leaves them clueless, lost and maybe heartbroken sometimes. Thats what she does! =D
kind of sounds like a girl tempting a guy to get into a relationship but she only wants fun... yea, not really sure. different style for stg, im still undecided about their new lead.
oh yeah me too. Carah was so edgy and awesome. this new girl... idk

i think it about a dude warning other guys about this girl whos a big player. when she says stuff about youre the target shes saying shes going after you, and she will make you hers!!!! i wish i was her!!!

I think it's about a guy dening he likes this girl and like she's in ur head. explains that part i really like this song it's catchy. i don't think the girl's playing with him. [like a bullet meant to be shot you're the target] but i think she likes him, and no matter what she's gonna get him. i just made this to post my opinion haha =]
Rebound relationships? Ricocheting from one guy to the next seems a plausible meaning to me. I mean, isn't one of the common themes of the Shiny's music that of heartless bitches using or toying with guys. Basically the "I'm too good for you" idea followed by the "you're a skank" line of thought. It's really pretty biting stuff, I think
i heard this song on top 40 radio & it def caught my attention. this song sounds to me like a girl who goes to the clubs & does coke (she mentions letting it snow down in the stalls aka bathrooms before she's ready to deck the halls) & picks up men. actually it almost sounds like she is comparing her way of seduction to the addictive properties of a drug... like saying she's creeping up in your head/hitting the mainline etc. the song has that vibe to it imo. anyway, it's clear that she means to encircle & destroy... & her target is obvs the boys.
I am that much better for now knowing the word "mesocyclone"...and I suspect that I'll be better yet (or at least a bit giddier) when I pick up the new album on Election Day. This should be fun. STG rule.
i really don't like this song or this girls voice and the video is corny i used to love them.. :/ and nobody better get mad at me and call me closed minded cuz thats not how i'm being right now.
the video is up (not on youtube yet, just google it) .........weird. apparently the cd is supposed to be about things 'that make you shudder' or make you uncomfortable. (quote from the lead guitarist) odd. new direction for stg thats for sure.
the meaning? okay, my take. sounds like shes not completely real in wanting the relationship with the guy but shes good got an addicting/appealing way of tempting the guy. but "shes in your head" and you cant get away from her, so to speak. "let the sweat fall, find me in the back stall. let it snow down..." sounds like using coke in a bathroom to kind of relieve himself about thinking about getting involved with her. he wants it, but knows in his mind shes a fake. so he uses coke so he can do things without regret (for the time being...)
you definitely forgot the ! at the end.
this song is not good. it feels contrived and unfinished, or at least the chorus feels like it shouldnt be a chorus. the verse sounds very stg. the new singer can def pull off that attitude from the last chick, but the chorus needs to change
