Catch and Release Lyrics

Cover art for Catch and Release lyrics by Silversun Pickups

pretty easy to pick up the meaning after a thorough read-through.. he's pretty much talking about someone he's hooking up with and the games that are played throughout.

i love the fishing references here to describe the game of sex, etc. "the lure was enough" - he put the right amount of himself out there for her to bite.

the title is of course basically the theme of the entire act- this is just a hookup, nothing serious. and based on the line "why the engine's blown," the sex at the beginning of the catch has ruined the future of the relationship

yeah, that seems like it, and it seems like hes reflecting on it and realizing that it wasnt a great idea, the "Was it truly worth, truly worth the starting" that sums it up, he started by having sex, and that ruined the relationship, and so was that start really worth it, to ruin a relationship that never had a fair chance.

good song
