Unlike some post I've read, for me this song is coming just from one person but this person is very confused and have mixed feelings toward his/her love...
I want to share how I can closely relate to this song:
First part is the loving and tender part, where you don't want the relationship to end and remember how well it was at the beginning...
"i remember it well
the first time that i saw
your head 'round the door
'cause mine stopped working
i remember it well
there was wet in your hair
you were stood in the stair
and time stopped moving"
This is without doubt the begging of the relationship, where everything is magical and time stops when you are with the person you love.
"i want you here tonight
i want you here
'cause i can't believe what i found
i want you here tonight
want you here
nothing is taking me down"
At the beginning of the relationship when you feel so blessed with your new love and where all you want to do is to be with your love and you know there's nothing or nobody that can 'take you down' from loving that person.
"i remember it well
taxied out of a storm
to watch you perform
and my ships were sailing"
When you would do anything and everything to see the person you love, you would leave all the other things, because what matter most at that moment it was him/her.
"i remember it well
i was stood in your line
and your mouth
your mouth
your mouth
your mind"
'Your mouth... your mind' I think this refers to when the relationship comes to the point where you are kissing your partner, but it crosses your mind 'is he/she feeling like me right now?', 'what would she/he is thinking right now?'. Maybe the partner is not mentally available for a relationship... and you wonder...
"i want you here tonight i want you here
'cause i can't believe what i found
i want you here tonight want you
'cause nothing is taking me down
'cept you, my love.."
You miss him/her a lot. You want him/her and nothing can stop you, except of course, him/her with his/her actions...
Right now I'm in a relationship where my bf of a year told me he was gonna get engaged with me this year and married the next, he promised me he would stop smoking weed 'cause 'I didn't deserve that kind of man'... and he has broken all his promises... He doesn't know when he wants to get married anymore, but he says he IS going to marry me. And he's been smoking weed lately, when he knows he breaks my heart, he just thinks about himself... And I've talked with him and beg him to do something (look for some type of maybe psychological help) 'cause I really don't want to leave him, and I want to be there for him... But he's just crushing me and 'nothing can take me down, 'cept him' doing nothing to improve our relationship.
Here comes the other side where you just want to shout at the person who is hurting you (me in this case..) so much...
"come all ye lost
dive into moss
i hope that my sanity covers the cost
to remove the stain of my love
paper mache"
You start expressing your real feelings about the situation, your are lost, confused, getting crazy because of this love and how it's dying and you just can't do anymore about it.
"come all ye reborn
blow off my horn
i'm driving real hard
this is love this is porn
god would forgive me
but i, i whip myself
scorn, scorn"
Your feelings are really strong, you are 'driving real hard'. You know 'God would forgive you' cause you've done nothing wrong, but you punish yourself and feel guilty about it, when you are just guilty of loving too much.
Here comes my actual situation again. I knew and even told him that I didn't want to be with a person that chooses a drug over me... I told him I would leave, but I didn't. I keep hoping he will change, that he'll understand someday what I'm going thru and how much I love him and keep hoping he's going to stop... But I know better... deep inside I always knew this was going to happen sooner or later and I know it's so wrong from my part to not stop this misery and I feel guilty for letting him hurt me and staying...
"i wanna hear
what you have to say about me
hear if you're gonna live without me
hear what you want
i remember december
and i wanna hear
what you have to say about me
hear if you're gonna live without me
i wanna hear what you want
what the hell do you want? "
These verses explain themselves...
The version of my life: I keep asking him what does he wants? If he just wants to keep doing drugs... and he says he is sorry for hurting me and wants me above all other things but keeps smoking. And I know that's not the truth and even tell him but he can't accept it, he says 'that's not true'.
I just 'wanna hear what you want. WHAT THE HELL DO YOU WANT?' </3
