The Comedown lyrics

Lyrics are an artist's outlet for any situation or thought that comes to them. And as an audience, it's up to us how to translate it, whether we are correct or not. On that note, we just need to start enjoying the songs oli has written, instead of trying to figure him out, which we can never do.

The song is about drug addiction, that's clear to me, but it's also about suicide and about a person he had a fight with but he feels sorry although he knows at that moment all words were ment. It's clear that there are different subjects in this song. And regardless of that, everybody can hear anything in music, even if it isn't ment like that, thats the beautiful thing about songs :)

Did anybody think it could have more than one meaning? I mean a couple of these make sense so why not leaveit open for speculation instead of one definitive answer, listen and enjoy and apply it however it makes sense to u

Its kinda weird what i was thinkin about when he says "just like the living dead i got a taste for somethin". Comin down off drugs he feels like a zombie. Zombies of course have a taste for flesh. If you get where im tryin to go with this then im not gonna finish saying the rest. Lol just my opinion.

I don't mean any offence, nichorasflyboy. But i'm not sure i can say you know what you're talking about considering you did say the album was about chelsea's smile,... You may be somewhat right about the rest, as even though i am a huge bring me the horizon fan, i have not seen that interview, but the term "chelsea smile", means the same as "chelsea grin", or "glasgow smile". All these terms refer to a form of torture. (if you've seen batman - the dark night, it's shown on the joker. ) it's when someone makes an inch to two inch insitions in the corners of your mouth, and normally later followed by more torture causing you to scream,... And as you scream the insitions can split to your ears. "the only way i'll really smile is if you cut me ear to ear. " from the song chelsea smile. I believe that in this term oli is saying it's torture to keep the secret he is hiding, and causes more damage to spill the secret. I realise this is the comedown, but i figured why not kill two birds with one stone.

And then... There is always the posiblity you guys are doosh bags reading too much into a song, because you need some sort of closure that your emotions are reciprocated. Some songs are just lyrics for lyrics sake.

Oli is smart. You, on the other hand, "nichorasflyboy", are not. Its suicide season... Not suicide silence.
