This song isn't about date rape. I hate that people keep insisting that.
I think these lyrics explain everything:
"You're not trying hard enough
Our lives are changing lanes
You ran me off the road
The wait is over
I'm now taking over
You're no longer laughing
I'm not drowning fast enough"
It's a break up song. It's about a relationship that is going nowhere and a girl who is just doesn't care about the guy. The song is called Reptilia. Reptiles are cold blooded creatures.
@nygfan wow not at all correct
your looking at one part of the song, and even parts of that allude to something similar to date rape. You cant look at one part of a song and disregard the other parts coming to an incorrect conclusion.

@nygfan not a break up song. The word Retilia refers to the part of your brain that is based on instinct and more animalistic sense than reasoning.
The song is about a guy who is interested in a girl at a party and the lyrics are about his struggle between letting his "wild" side take over and his more intellectual side showing restraint. It's not necessary about date rape, but it is definitely about hooking up with a girl despite the guy knowing that it's not the smart thing to do. Maybe he is married or has a girlfriend....

Think of it as a guy with the typical angel and devil conscience on his shoulders and the devil side is the one singing the aggressive parts and the angel the part about being ran off the road.
