Cover art for Stripped (Depeche Mode cover) lyrics by Rammstein

RemyKilledElvis, I tend to agree with your brother's opinion on the song, but the chorus just sounds so evil it's great. It's erotic of course but it could also be making a point of 'let me know who you are without all the superficial things that influence you, look at yourself as yourself, nothing else'. Someone he loves but wants to show them how to be themselves? 'Metropolis Has nothing on this You're breathing in fumes I taste when we kiss'

He loves who she truly is as in her kiss, but shes breathing in the fumes of all these things that arent really true to who she is and he wants to have her "stripped".
