The song lyrics were written by the band Van Halen, as they were asked to write a song for the 1979 movie "Over the Edge" starring Matt Dillon. The movie (and the lyrics, although more obliquely) are about bored, rebellious youth with nothing better to do than get into trouble. If you see the movie, these lyrics will make more sense. It's a great movie if you grew up in the 70s/80s you'll definitely remember some of these characters from your own life. Fun fact, after writing the song, Van Halen decided not to let the movie use it.
The Night We Met
Lord Huron
Lord Huron
This is a hauntingly beautiful song about introspection, specifically about looking back at a relationship that started bad and ended so poorly, that the narrator wants to go back to the very beginning and tell himself to not even travel down that road. I believe that the relationship started poorly because of the lines:
"Take me back to the night we met:When the night was full of terrors: And your eyes were filled with tears: When you had not touched me yet"
So, the first night was not a great start, but the narrator pursued the relationship and eventually both overcame the rough start to fall in love with each other:
"I had all and then most of you"
Like many relationships that turn sour, it was not a quick decline, but a gradual one where the narrator and their partner fall out of love and gradually grow apart
"Some and now none of you"
Losing someone who was once everything in your world, who you could confide in, tell your secrets to, share all the most intimate parts of your life, to being strangers with that person is probably one of the most painful experiences a person can go through. So Painful, the narrator wants to go back in time and tell himself to not even pursue the relationship.
This was the perfect song for "13 Reasons Why"

LOVE SP :):):)
I think its about someone whos addicted to being with someone else
another needy relationship song... it's about someone that keeps letting her lover down and hurts him in many ways but still he loves and is attached to her to the point of obsession. he knows it's an unhealthy relationship and tries to walk away from it, but he can't because she's like a drug. he doesn't "want to be like the others" because every other guy has fallen for her at one point and were probably "killed" by her. he believes he can show her true love but it's really infatuation.
Does this work?
This is the best interpretation of the song of all responses.
a most awesome song.
I think that this song is about a really shaky relationship with someone, and the guy just wants to be alone. The girl constantly follows the guy around and even wants to have a baby ("she wants to bleed every drop inside of me"). The guy becomes oblivious to the girl and doesn't want to be like the same relationships that he had before ("I don't want to be like the others, please") and he repeats it time and time again. He then realized that the only way to get away from the girl is death or even suicide (slit my wrists and die a wh**e). He says multiple times that I WANT TO GET AWAY FROM YOU! but the girl constantly refuses, and then the guy bounces back by LITERALLY SAYING "my love is sadness" and "my love is oh so wrong" and then he finally compromises to the girl and says "I'll be with you, but not for long." And who did he (Billy Corgan) have a shaky relationship with? None other than his past wife CHRIS FABIAN. So this song (in theory) is about his fiancee/wife Chris Fabian. I have a feeling "Bodies" off of Mellon Collie is sort of a "Hello Kitty Kat" Part 2 since he divorced Chris around the time the Siamese Dream tour wound down. In Bodies, he flat-out screams "LOVE IS SUICIDE!" referring to the fact that in "Hello Kitty Kat" he was nearly driven to suicide by the girl.
great song. I agree with Eth with whats it about.
I agree wit Ethilien bout herting sum1 2 many times & the person becomes obsessed wit the other person. Dat happened 2 me earlier n da skool year. I broke up wit a guy -n- he became a psyco ex-boyfriend/stalker. His stalking is still going on even tho he has a gurlfriend now. But since I can bench 140 lbs. -n- I got mah boyfriend, Tony I won't have 2 worry bout dat much longer.
i remember billy saying that this was his most passive-agressive song
i don't really think its about a relationship being taken to the point of obsession. i think its just billy really being in love with someone who keeps hurting him but he wants it to work out between them. i don't get the "who's sorry now?" bit. sounds like he's hurt them back reading the lyrics, its a lot more emo than i thought...
I agree with Whitt for the most part.
