Cover art for Aberdeen lyrics by Cage the Elephant

well Considering Aberdeen is a city the one who wrote the song (Matt mostlikely) may have gone to Aberdeen and did some bad things. He never "Saw his dark side" in aberdeen's "Eyes" as in he never was a mean or dark person while in aberdeen because he was having so much fun but he finnaly got caught or arrested maybe for doing the "Sins" in aberdeen which refers to "You've burned me again"

Also considering that Aberdeen sounds like a cool girls name maybe it's a girl he's sining about but I think the "she" is just a metaphore refering to the city.

Song Meaning

OMG - do you even own a Nirvana CD

Lol^

Do you guys own Google? Aberdeen in a town in Kentucky, where the guys grew up. It's about giving it up and taking virginity away from from the other. It all happened, way way way back once upon a time in Aberdeen, KENTUCKY. Fuck.
