Hedonism

i don't think its as simple as hoping that an ex is happy...i think that the 'hope you're feeling happy now' is supposed to be sarcastic.

I think it´s more sad than angry song - it´s about broken relationship, in which she was more emocionaly involved and now she´s feeling sad and embarassed for being the one, who loved more and that she is still not able to get over it ( I see you feel no pain at all it seems I wonder what you're doin' now I wonder if you think of me at all ) And the fact she still feel bad and lonely, while he doesn´t seem to care and feel bad at all is wounding her even more. And she knows, that even after all she "still wants him here tonight" (un-cared for some dignaty or something), which is the saddest moment.

it's an angry song to sing to a former boyf/girlf who's hurt you when he/she should have thanked you for helping you when he/she felt so low...

Am I the only one picking up a message about weed? "Do you still have the same friends now, to smoke away your problems and your life?" Makes a lot of sense and relates to "just because it feels good, doesn't make you right". And the title, Hedonism points in the same direction. This is a song about a relationship that went sour because of a boyfriend who smoked too much. To me anyway :)

hey, im not sure how to word what i feel this means, but all i know is when i hear it i wanna cry.

I agree totally with Skunker!! It reminds me of my ex-boyfriend!! I really don't need him anymore, but I agree with skunker!!

i absolutly love this song... to me it means she has broken up with a loved one, and she hope he is e/she is happy now, though there is anger and hurt as she is not quite over the break up. i love it!!!!!

i can see where fading and ladyboygrrl are going, but i kinda miss the hedonism part in their explanations. skin tells about her ex-boy(/girl)friend: 'i see you feel no pain at all it seems", and 'does laughter still discover you', 'just because you feel good'. does she refer to the hedonistic way of life of het ex boy(/girl)friend?

also: 'how do you remember me? the one that made you laugh until you cried?' does she mean: did you only date my because you could have a good laugh with me or did i mean more to you?

to me lines like these sound as if she's critisising his superficial way of living. his life is all about having fun, but is there a place for true love and care? (hedonism = viewing the own pleasure as highest good)

'just because you feel good, does it make you right', makes perfectly sense...

nice comment enid.. i agree
