Let's do this
Fake and fall, stop and stall
Take it all back cause I'm taking mine
I'm taking mine
Time is up, outta luck
Shoulda stood up when you had the time
But you're out of time
Let's do this
Fight, fight, fight, fight
Lock and load, rock and roll
Bitch it's all over, you're going down
You're going down
Get ready to settle the score
And get ready to face the floor
'Cause it's time to remember it
This is war and it's on tonight so get up and fight
Get up and fight
You've had all your life to run and hide
Now step up, now step up
Let's do this
Second round, going down
How about a little reaction man
You can barely stand
Bitch slap, slow attack
Man that was practically suicide, next in line
Go fight, fight, fight, fight, fight, fight, fight, fight
Get ready to settle the score
And get ready to face the floor
'Cause it's time to remember it
This is war and it's on tonight so get up and fight
Get up and fight
You've had all your life to run and hide
Now step up, now step up
Let's do this
Cause we're all about ready to break
Yeah, we're all about ready to break
Yeah, we're all about ready to break
Yeah, we're all about ready to break
This is war and it never ends
So get up, get up, get up, get up
You've had all your life to run and hide
Now step up, now step up
This is war, and it never ends
This is war, and it never ends
This is war

Love in a Vacuum
'Til Tuesday
'Til Tuesday
Well, in my opinion this song is about being a young & maybe a little naive &/or introverted girl and finding yourself loving a man who is at first very charming, carefree & outgoing, and seems at first to be without limits, as in
"There was a time
you opened up every doorway
you didn't mind if everything
wasn't your way"
then that man starts to gradually become more introverted & shows their more possessive/obsessive side to you as the relationship progresses, even while they keep up the appearance of being carefree & outgoing to everyone else,
"Don't pull away
that goes against what you told me
I look in your eyes
I realize what you've sold me
is love in a vacuum"
so you confront them about the way they're acting and of course they deny it,
"I think you've changed
but you insist that
that's not true"
quite possibly they are an addict of some sort, my guess would be cocaine, &/or showing very obsessive behavior towards you (early on in the video for this song we see the man hanging a picture up, it is a very large portrait of Aimee & it is prominently displayed in his/their apartment for the duration of the song), thus their "love in a vacuum",
"You look so strange, so distant
that you're hardly you
Now I can see
how you have been acting different
You say it's me
but I know
that it isn't
it's love in a vacuum"
but still you are in love with them and don't want to leave them and you know that they are truly in love with you and they don't want you to leave them either, maybe they are convinced you can save them from themself, maybe they are so broken that the possibility of an overdose &/or suicide attempt is very real and you want to get through to them that their behavior not only dangerous but it is also just pissing you off and if they don't wise up they run the risk of loosing you, as in the lines
"You will be lonely
if you leave me alone", so you want to save them but can't get through to them due to the addiction &/or emotional problems they have,
"Love in a vacuum
and that's not enough
love in a vacuum
You will be lonely
you'll be the only one who feels this way
You will be lonely
if you leave me alone
You will be lonely
you'll be the only one who feels this way
it's just not enough"
you want them to understand that the love they are giving you is not enough when it is filtered through the vacuum of their drug addiction &/or emotional impairment,
"You will be lonely
you'll be the only one who feels this way
it's just not enough
and just wait
you will be lonely
Love in a vacuum
Love in a vacuum
and that's not enough
Love in a vacuum".
'Love In A Vacuum' for me is a hauntingly truthful acute argument on the loneliness of obsession and almost inevitable loss of love that follows people who are broken in some way or another; the obsessives, the coke heads, the drunks, addicts or the just-plain-old emotionally broken; a razor sharp, lyrically driven, deceptively poppy, yet ultimately-depressing-in-the-best-way song.
Quintessential Aimee Mann.
um... I think it might be about fighting... maybe?
this song makes me want to punch someone and get away with it
AHH!!!!
Is this The Theme Song For The New Street Fighter Movie on friday!!!??
:]
Love it
Nah, its the song from the TV Spot for Street Fighter IV.<br /> <br /> Best........Game..........EVER! ^_^
awsome song
Great song. I can't wait for the new album. The song is pretty self explanatory isn't it?
This song is actually just called "War" not Street Fighter (War) just got the CD
This is a pure fighting song.
It's just a song about street fighter. Yep. And the band members call it Street fighter war. =)
Hmm...I really don't know why...but something tells me it's about war...
This song reminds me of the movie Fight Club
Well slap the fucking puppy on his backside. By golly somebody got a clue!
