Classic love story true to his western tx roots. One of my favorites as a story, but I think there are alot of songs that are amazing not even listed on this site. I guess I should figure out how to add them, because I have about 8 REK cd's.

Can I , Can I,
Save you from you.
Cause you know there's something missin',
and that champagne you've been sippin' is not suppose to make you different over time.
It's starting to feel, like the wrong thing to do.
yeah,
Cause with all that recognition, it gets hard for you to listen to the things that I'mma say to make you mine.
But live girl, have some fun girl we'll be fine,
Trying to convince myself I found one,
Making the mistake I never learn from.
I swear, I always fall for your type.
For your type..
Tell me why I always fall for you type,
For your type..
I just can't explain this s--t at all [x4]
'Cause who am I to judge you on the past, girl.
I bet there's a reason for it all.
You say that you're nothing like the last girl,
I just pray that you don't let me down right now.
It's too late, I'm already yours.
You just gotta promise me, hearts won't break,
And end up like before.
I swear, I always fall for your type,
For your type..
Tell me why I always fall for your type,
For your type..
I just can't explain this s--t at all.. [x4]
Look, dress hanging off your shoulder, barely sober.
Telling me how you moving away and starting over.
Girl, quit playing you just drunk.
You just saying sh-t..
Oh you dance, dance like how, like ballet and sh-t,
Oh, wait, no, I get it girl, I'm with it.
I've been down this road before and yeah I skidded but Forget it..
Damn, I wonder why I never why I learned my lesson,
It's feeling like the second chance and its the first impression.
And I heard it's nothing new except for someone new.
But how you supposed to find the one when anyone will come with you?
Talking to myself but I never listen,
'Cuz man it's been a while, and I swear that this ones different..
That's why I'mma take you anywhere you wanna go,
Let you meet my friends so they can lecture me again about
How reckless I have been.
And I'm slowly running out of all the time that I invest in,
Making all the same mistakes
And I swear I'm just trying to correct it.
I swear I always fall for your type,
For your type..
Tell me why I always fall for your type,
For your type..
I just can't explain this s--t at all [x4]

This song is def a twin to "Unfair" (a song she has been quoted as saying is about falling in love with someone who is already in a relationship) so it is presumably about the same person. Given the references to buying an apartment and not being able to see her love interest "after tonight," it's most likely that she's moving away and she'll "wait a day to break the bad news" (i.e. notifying him that she's leaving once she's already gone).
And, of course, the fact that she sees in him a fellow "idealist" and "dreamer" (terms commonly given to people with the INFP personality on the Myers–Briggs Type Indicator (MBTI)) portends that she'll always be left wondering if they would've been perfect together.

Both as a standalone and as part of the DSOTS album, you can take this lyric as read. As a matter of public record, Jourgensen's drug intake was legendary even in the 1980s. By the late 90s, in his own words, he was grappling with massive addiction issues and had lost almost everything: friends, spouse, money and had nearly died more than once. "Dark Side of the Spoon" is a both funny & sad title for an album made by a musical genius who was losing the plot; and this song is a message to his fans & friends saying he knows it. It's painful to listen to so I'm glad the "Keith Richards of industrial metals" wised up and cleaned up. Well done sir.

I think much like another song “Anti-Matter” (that's also on the same album as this song), this one is also is inspired by a horrifying van crash the band experienced on Nov 3, 2022. This, much like the other track, sounds like it's an extension what they shared while huddled in the wreckage, as they helped frontman Garrett Russell stem the bleeding from his head wound while he was under the temporary effects of a concussion. The track speaks of where the mind goes at the most desperate & desolate of times, when it just about slips away to all but disconnect itself, and the aftermath.
Nice.
