Wow...thanks to whoever got the lyrics on so quickly. Not sure what the lyrics mean...I don't think I've absorbed them enough. But makes me think of a relationship where the girl treats the guy like sh!t...and he knows she'll leave him soon but he's so in love...well maybe not love, more like addicted is closer to the right word, but he doesn't even care that she's killing him little by little...drop by drop. I also sense anger/revenge and maybe he wants to hurt her back, like take her down with him? Regardless of if I understand the lyrics correctly...I love the song.

I interpreted these lyrics from a guys perspective...even though it's really either/or...Allison is singing lead but Jack is back-up sorta...almost equal (which is ironic that he sings "I never said we was equal".LOL I think I thought from a guy's perspective because I assumed the lyrics might have been Jack's.
