Fast as You Can Lyrics

Cover art for Fast as You Can lyrics by Fiona Apple

Personally I relate this song to an eating disorder or a personality disorder which she calls the beast. She tries to fight it and whoever she is with thinks they understand and they think they can help her...but she doesn't want help because she knows she will eventually hurt him as well. " may be soft in your palm but I?ll soon grow Hungry for a fight, and I will not let you win"

Thats what I see though. I don't think its about most women and just being mean to men...I think it is bigger then that. A lot of her songs talk about the beast within and the complete emotional turmoil that occurs within some people. I feel this song is about not dragging others down with her and how they should run as fast as they can before they get hurt.
