They're getting ugly
They're a horror show
And now we're laughing
Because they'll never know
That they have everything
We give them all of our own
And they tell us they're sick and they're all alone
They make fools of us together but we always think of them
All their laughing and their talking and their wasting of our time
And it always hurts to see them now that everything is different
We don't like to see their eyes cause they will never look the same
They shut the door
We fall far behind
We try forgiveness
But they cross the line
And now the moment has passed
And we can't rewind
We are dead long before we run out of time
They make fools of us together but we always think of them
All their laughing and their talking and their wasting of our time
And it always hurts to see them now that everything is different
We don't like to see their eyes cause they will never look the same
Honestly if you really pay attention to the lyrics, this song kind of sounds like it's about rape. "They" being the rapist and "we" being the victims, but who knows...
There are probably a million theories to what this song means.
Several I've seen seem to be talking about whiny people who think the whole world wants to hear about their problems and they repeatedly force these problems on the person who's singing. However eventually the person who's singing gets fed up with it. Now nothing can be the same between them because of the hurt the person who's singing placed on them.
i'm doing close to my best when i say what i think the meaning of this song is about
well, instead, i'm just going to relate it to my own life to try to explain it the clearest
so my mom and stepfather pretty much just threw me out of their lives. well, i can't stand my stepfather and my mom is a bitch when he's there so yeah enough said. like, i did enough to make them AT LEAST satisfied, but no, that wasn't good enough. i did all i could to make them happy. i stuck up for my mother until the "end." i just coulldn't take it anymore. i had 2 little sisters who were pretty much my own children if you think about it. anyway, i left them with no goodbyes about a year ago. the only ones who seemed to care were my "daughters" and of course my crack-head but has more sense than they ever could uncle. so i didn't talked to my mom in about 2/3 of a year and what do i get? a bunch of BULL. i called HER which seems like it wasn't MY obligation but hers and no sorry, no nothing. i can't think of them without getting teary-eyed and i can't see a family without breaking down inside and i can't walk past a playground without reminiscing the days that my little sisters begged me to take them. and the REGRET i feel now that i never wanted to and never enjoyed it. but anyway, i tell mama how life is and how i had to move again because i was so miserable and alone and how i'm seeing a psychiatrist and what does she say? do GOOD in school cause i know you will make it far. what the fuck is that? like seriously that's it mom? you're really original. all i have is hate for you now. i asked her to be with her that weekend and she said no. i know she doesn't give 2 craps where i end up
so yeah, song meaning...
-rejection
-expectations (let down of course)
-betrayal
- ungratefulness
basic combination of the assholes we love
