I have to agree a lot with fabianna's comment. Also to add:
"let's put away the sticks and stones
be human beings"
Sounds like they are in heavy arguements and he wishes them to be "humans" about this all.
"I have the sense to be afraid to be a fool" Perhaps he keeps coming back into the relationship. Even though she continues to push him out and push him against walls, situations he can't get out of.
"You told me once your body flowed
with milk and honey
but what happened to our boy
inside your tummy?"
Are some of the saddest lines I've ever heard... Its obvious that she has gotten an abortion. Perhaps the relationship went really wrong and in anger she aborted the baby. Poor guy, whoever the song is about :<
"I have the sense to be afraid, to be a fool
but I'm on the fence
to make you stay or to be cruel"
At this point he still loves her, but now because of what happened with the aborted baby, he is wondering whether he should try and keep the relationship going or be cruel. I can relate to this entirely as it is in my scorpio nature to be cruel to people who hurt me.... Even if I loved them once.
At this next part, its obvious he has chosen to be cruel:
"You perfume covered helpless louse,
look on the bright side
See, every time you laugh out loud
I'm crying inside"
He's hurt by all of this and she obviously no longer loves him. (Think about the aborted baby). Calling her a louse shows that he despises her yet still loves her as he is "crying inside". Her laughing shows sarcasm, one of the worse forms of cruelty in my opinion.
"Make me believe
believe in you"
Believe that there is love still?
"I should have known you'd kick me hard
when I'm on the ground"
This whole situation was not his fault. It can be seen clearly that she has brought him down "to the ground". "Kicked" him where it hurts. She's hurting him badly, and he tried to hold on. But she keeps pushing him away. He should have known she'd hurt him.
As fabianna said: "loving someone means giving them the power to break your heart and trusting them not to."
Agreed 100%. Can't beleive it took up to the 8th comment for someone to say she got an abortion in spite of him. There's not much hidden in these lyrics; he's still willing to be the fool, if she can make him beleive in her again.
