Dissolved Girl

I don't think this song is necessary about sex, my impression is a bit different.

'Cause it feels like I've been I've been here before You are not my savior But I still don't go

To me, this part of the lyrics is the most important one. She's unhappy and depressed and she's trying fill that void by being in a relationship. It works, but after a while she starts to lose herself again, as said in the beginning of the song, and she dissolves. Eventually, she recognizes that her partner isn't the one who can save her, but she still doesn't go. This is a thing I've learned over the years -- if you can't make yourself happy, no one can. Just my 2 cents.

Fantastic, and very powerful song...

I think the song is about relationship in which is spark/honeymoon has passed. She is painfully aware of the fact that the relationship is no longer fulfilling, but continues to hold on (rather than leave), because it still provides some feelings of comfort. She "needs a little love to ease the pain", but the love and the pain and inexorably related. So she thinks back to the past, when the love was more fulfilling ("It's easy to remember when it came"), but is painfully aware that this does not suffice ("I could fake it but I still want more").

I am a man, but have felt similar to what is being described. It is a difficult place to be in. Sex and other forms of intimacy provide an escape, but ultimately lead deeper into obsessive, addictive, destructive behavior.

We all long to be loved, and getting a taste of it feels so good, that you don't want to let go of it, even when you know it's gone (dissolved).

This song is great. I think its about a girl who gives herself to people even though she knows they dont care. As if she is searching for true love in the men she has sex with and not finding it.

Great song, once again about love causing the ultimate hurt.

The song that plays on Neo's headphones in the opening scene in the Matrix

song is about life, about making choice, about having dreams but not be able to realize them or to stand up for them. about general feeling in life, being incapable to do something coz fear of failure.

she stays at same place, she wants to change something but she is afraid. cant help herself, coz its safe there where she is now, its safe, she doesnt know what is there for her so she stays at same place....and just waits.

you can say its depression or or some similar condition but this song is def not ab sex, drugs and similar addictions.

thats why lyrics are Feels like something That I've done before things are the same, repeating all the time but I could fake it But I still want more she is addicted to same things and she still does the same 'Cause it feels like I've been, I've been here before her safe place, thats why she still doesnt leave You are not my savior But I still don't go . . .

This girl has given herself to so many people she has "kind of lost [herself] again." I think this is where the title plays in. When something like sugar is dissolved in a drink, you can not see it anymore. She is sugar, the men a drink. Between all her relationships, she is unable to find herself, and has become nothing but a culmination of all her encounters.

These lyrics are pretty self explanatory but ill paint you guys the picture...

"Shame, such a shame I think I kind of lost myself again Day, yesterday Really should be leaving but I stay"

She woke up and feels ashamed that she doesnt know where she is, yesterday was crazy, shes in bed in an unknown apartment, wants to leave but stays anyway

"Say, say my name I need a little love to ease the pain I need a little love to ease the pain It's easy to remember when it came"

She starts having sex again with the guy she woke up next to, she wants whatever he's giving her, she wants to feel loved, wants attention

"'Cause it feels like I've been I've been here before You are not my savior But I still don't go"

She's done this before, he's not the one for her and she doesn't even like him, but she doesn't want to feel alone.

"Feels like something That I've done before I could fake it But I still want more"

She's done this before, she fakes interest and the sex with him, and she still wants to keep doing it.

"Fade, made the fade Passion's overrated anyway Say, say my name I need a little love to ease the pain I need a little love to ease the pain It's easy to remember when it came"

She starts trying to convince herself, passion isn't really important, she just wants that love and attention that the guy is giving her.

Everybody's opinion sounds valid but to me this song is about a girl who searches to fill some sort of void by seeking out love and relationships. Of course the relationships do not contain a real form of love but they try to force it because they still think somehow the relationship will complete them. Many girls lose themselves in relationships and end up feeling even more empty when all is said and done. To me this song is about a girl who clearly has established a pattern and keeps finding herself in relationships that she puts a lot of emphasis on because she feels like love is what she needs to make her happy. This seems to be the part of her that deep down knows it's wrong and that she should leave, but outwardly she still tries to keep it together and even pretends she is happier and better off than she is (denial is a powerful tool). Maybe I see it this way because like others have mentioned above, I was the girl I discussed above. But girls, it is possible to break patterns. The first step is being able to recognize destructive behavior. Best of luck to you all.

I always thought that the song was about someone who had lost someone that they had been deeply in love with (either through death or a breakup). Because the pain is so great, she (I will go with the gender of the singer) has sex with someone that she does not love in a desperate attempt to feel good. In the short run, it works: she loses herself in the moment of carnal passion. However, once it's over, it only serves to remind her what she lost and makes her yearn for it all the more.

Interestingly, in the Matrix, while Neo searches for Morpheus, you hear the part "Feels like I've been, I've been here before, You are not my saviour, but I still don't go, feels like something, that I've done before". Which is mysteriously fitting to the matrix' story.

Furthermore I can't decide whether it's about, sex, drugs or some general form of addiction/dependence.
