Sucker Punch Lyrics

Push and pull me closer
Habit forming, you should stay far away
Coloured caffeine, magic
Lights my night up, I'm aware of my fate

It's too late
After all is said and done
I am not the one, I am not the one
After all is said and done
You are still the one, you are still the one

Perfect measured pieces, fit together
You and I, hey, bright eyes
Don't deny my weakness
You're the jet and I'm the stream, right behind you

Behind you
After all is said and done
I am not the one, I am not the one
After all is said and done
You are still the one, you are still the one

After all is said and done
I am not the one, I am not the one
After all is said and done
You are still the one, you are still the one

No opinions yet? Too bad. I really don't understand this one.

But I can assume. Here's my opinion:

The first few lines suggest that he is depressed and reduced to drugs and such("Habit forming". "colored caffeine, magic", "I'm aware of my fate"). I think it's another love story, how they are "perfectly measured pieces", in other words meant for eachother, but she is still better than him. Possibly she rejects him after all he's said and done, so he has given up and gotten depressed.

But I still don't understand why it's called Sucker Punch!

My Opinion

a sucker punch is something that comes unexpected. so he didn't see it coming that he wasn't the one for her. as you said, he thought they were perfect measured pieces that were meant for eachother but after all that was said and done, he isn't the one.

I think this song tells about a relationship in which one of them are really in love, and thinks "you're still the one" even after all is said and done, he/she thinks they are perfect measured pieces that fit together. But the other person don't think the same, they push and pull closer, and even though the one who's speak is the the strength behind, he/she still isn't the one, which is unexpected like a sucker punch.
