Every You Every Me Lyrics

Lyric discussion by pragmaticpoetry 

Cover art for Every You Every Me lyrics by Placebo

This is one song you don't want to dedicate to someone you love, despite the seemingly adoring lyrics. This "sucker love" is infatuation mixed with lust, a kind of immature love you feel when you're desperate and alone..

You'd do anything for it [carve your name into my arm; instead of stressed, I lie here charmed] because you believe in it so much, even go as far to sacrifice yourself after a fight to make things better [i serve my head up on a plate; it's only comfort, calling late].

And maybe, maybe you know that this love is sick, paper-thin, and only here to make you feel better.. but you don't care, because you know this is all that could work [sucker love, a box I choose, no other box I choose to use - another love I would abuse].

The love you feel makes you feel better [my heart's a tart, your body's rent], fills you up, makes you feel alive again [all alone in space and time, there's nothing here but what here's mine, something borrowed, something blue].

It's a damn awesome song. But it's nothing to go dedicate to a lover.

@pragmaticpoetry Perhaps because I'm a girl, but this is my interpretation

Sucker love is heaven sent You pucker up our passion's spent My heart's a tart your body's rent My body's broken, yours is spent

He has every thing he needs to be happy, but does not feel the passion any more, his enitre life he has been doing things his family, friends and gilrfriend expected him to do, then she comes: fun, sexy, this love seems unrealistic, but she makes him feel like a man again

Carve your name into my arm Instead of stressed I lie here charmed 'Cause there's...
