I think this song is about a guy who prowls for one night stands. Although he is a smooth talker, acts and speaks romantically, he hates the women he has these one night stands with and thinks of them as cheap. It is a very sexual song, raw, hard unfeeling sex (for the guy anyway, purely a physical need). He sings about being apologetically dressed as if he is sneering at the girl.

I'll have to agree with anon's interpretation. It seems more fit to The Killer's feel.

I think this song is about a man who is deeply in love with his girlfriend, but his girlfriend as done something that he can't forgive which is explained through the lyrical process. etc;

" we took a back road, were gonna look at the stars we took a back road in my car"- he's taking out for a romantic evening look at the stars etc, and back road basically to make out.

" down to the ocean its only water and sand but in the ocean wel hold hands"- the beach, its not much but it will do they enjoy it obviously (wel hold hands)

" but I don't really like you"- this is were the forgivness is wearing out inside him, he is forcing himself to not like her.

"apoligetically dressed to the best put on a heartbeat line/glide"- this is why he keeps forgiving her, by the way she's dressed, " a heartbeat line" he obviously is very attracted to the girls figure/appareance.

"without an answer the thunder speaks for the sky and on the cold wet dirt I cry"- without an answer basically means without an apoligy my emotions speak for theirself and he is breaking down and crying he feels she is not bothered to what she has done.

"dont you wanna come with me don't you wanna feel my bones on your bones its only natural"- this is explaining that they should be together because its natrual they are so used to it.

" a cinematic vision ensued like the holiest dream"- its like wha t she wanted is going to persued she is going to have her way"

"theirs someone calling an angel wispers my name but the message relayed is the same, wait for tomorrow youl be fine but its gone to the dogs in my mind" this basically means the voice in his head is telling him just tell her tomorrow tonight is too perfect to end it, she is pursuing the dream.


"but its gone to the dogs in my mind"- he's not letting it slip this time, its time to end it.

"I always hear them
when the dead of night
comes calling to save me from this fight.
But they can never wrong this right"- he must think about it a lot of night from this fight maybe means nightmares, but they can never wrong this right, these voices can't tell him its ok, its not. never wrong this right etc.

back to the verse.

Don't you wanna come with me? Don't you wanna feel my bones
on your bones?
It's only natural.
Don’t you wanna swim with me? Don’t you wanna feel my skin
on your skin?
It's only natural.

(Never had a lover)
I never had a lover
(Never had soul)
I never had soul
(Never had a good time)
And I never had a good time
(Never got cold)
I never got gold.

Talking about he's never going to find the right girl he's never had it and he doesn't know whether to stay with this girl he's not sure if he's right with her as he's never had it before, its like the backing vocals are the voices saying stay with her because "you never had a good time" etc. and he's kinda agreeing with the repeated lyric.

correct me if I'm wrong, this is my interpretation I might not be right, but this is how I see Brandon pursuing the song.

thanks, email me if you like it so I can do more ;D

I think in this song he's amazed at how our souls are in human bodies, made up of bones and skin. He's just explaining how awesome it is to have the touch of another person. It just feels good...

There is so much desperation in this song. Brandon is making a plea, he has given in to lust. He is not waiting 'til tomorrow to analyze the situation. The thing is I think it is a song of unrequited lust. I don't think he gets the girl even though she is right there, I think it is too desperate of a come on, and that is what the song is about. I also think the lyric is never felt whole.
