The Goo Goo Dolls – What A Scene Lyrics 10 years ago
i agree completely that this is about eating disorders. "lies weigh more than truth, innocence looks good on you" its saying that hiding yourself and obessing over this evil is weighing down on you, when all you want to do is lose wieght. you'd look better if you were free of your ED and could love your body for what it was. eating disorder make you bitter and dishonest, and he's saying that healthy is much more attractive than skinny.

to add onto the eating disorder theory, "lies weigh more than truth, innocence looks good on you" its saying that hiding yourself and obessing over this evil is weighing down on you, when all you want to do is lose wieght. you'd look better if you were free of your ED and could love your body for what it was. eating disorder make you bitter and dishonest, and he's saying that healthy is much more attractive than skinny.

this is an all time favorite of mine (hence the username haha).

i definitely associate this song with eating disorders. i've suffered with ednos for awhile, and this is how it feels.

"when you're feeling all wrong in the back of your mind again
how does it feel? when you drop down everything's all the same"

this whole part is a reference to relapse. "drop" down can be interpreted as bullimia, dropping down in front of a toilet to purge, or anorexia, dropping down like fainting from lack of nutrients.

the song goes on to reference "saccharine, caffeine, nicotine gum" things that don't permanently satisfy hunger, and "how does it feel when you found out what you're not gonna be" the unrealistic goals that people with eating disorder never quit striving for.

and to top it off "They give you your image and the things you believe
Open your eyes tell me what did you see
And I just think you thought it surreal" and "When it's all about money and the things that you need
Live a big lie and they all believe
Now I just find that somehow obscene" both hilight simple struggles of life and image.

the entire song makes me extremely emotional, like just another lost teeange girl who's fallen victim to society.

this song is so important to me. it's one of those songs that i never get sick of hearing, and never fails to change my mood and make me feel more energetic. it was exciting to me to discover tha this song was released as a single on june 17, 1997- 2 days before i was born. it makes me feel really really connected with it. this song is not only catchy but astonishingly well-written and relatable. maybe my favorite song ever. so beautiful

i guess the song was too long and that was an easy part to edit out. yeah, its a bummer not to hear the whole song whenever it's on the radio.

benzster, coda is a musical term. i believe that's what the song means, as it's among "and i speak to you like the chorus to the verse"
