Hand-cuffed in the present tense
Variations in your violence
Mind games and pretty girls
A cracked song in the universe
I think it's time that I showed you what I'm made of
I'm afraid there's so much to be afraid of
Kill the fire so you don't get burnt
Kill the fire and you won't get burnt
Deadwood if you care to listen
Looks the same but there's something
It wears me out
Stipped bare I'm the same old savage
How in His name did we ever manage
It's not enough
Chorus
Look me in the eye
I'm about to dive
Can you live your life without me
I don't need you anymore
I can't use you anymore
Killing the fire you and you kill the desire
I don't need you anymore
Loud and clear but you still don't get it
I call you up and I now regret it
It gets me down
You want the truth but you look right through it
Deadwood but you won't run to it
It's such a shame
I don't need you anymore
I can't use you anymore
Killing the fire you and you kill the desire (the only one)
Killing the fire you and you kill the desire (the only one)
Killing the fire you and you kill the desire (the only one)
Killing the fire you and you kill the desire (the only one)
Killing the fire you and you kill the desire (the only one)
I love this b-side of their's. The whole band is influencal to me. I wish more groups/artists put out b-sides so frequently as Garbage does. I love them to death.
Well it is obvious that it's about a relationship heading to its end
"Hand-cuffed in the present tense Variations in your violence Mind games and pretty girls A cracked song in the universe I think it's time that I showed you what I'm made of" Yeah...that about sums it up. And that's not even the only good part of the song! Wow...just a REALLY good song.
I think at the end of the song it's
"Symptomatic of what I've become, I used to think you were the only one"
One of my favourite Garbage songs. A shame it's so underrated (it should be on an album, anyway). And it's awesome how Garbage has AMAZING b-sides.
