Cover art for The New lyrics by Interpol

Well, considering that I can't even find the song or the artist that tsucol mentioned, not even with Google, I'll disregard that little rant.

Personally, I think this song just embodies everything about a relationship that ends. Not just any sort of relationship, but a meaningful one, one of those that "define" your life. Yes, sure, there's some sexual connotation to it, like "I gave alot to you / I take alot from you too," like losing virginity or something :P Chronologically though, as you listen to the song, you notice different stages of intensity. At first, the song opens up and sounds completely mellow and sincere. As it progresses, it starts to break down, the lyrics become a little more aggressive, and finally just ends with the guitar playing that somewhat sinister sounding note. At least, that's my perspective on it.
