I just found a friend in one of your lies
To treat me so nice, I can't believe my bones
When they say so many things
They tell me I am fine
Believe me I, I try

Ever so sweet you make this seem
The way things go
It's not my fault
And I'll miss, I'll miss you so good
All of those nights that we lost our way back home

Ever so sweet, you baked it in cakes for me
What you left behind
It hurts my teeth
Bringing the past with the postcards you sent for me
Every line
It brings me right back down

Can't you see the wall you build for me?
Can't you see the wall you build for me?
Can't you see the wall you build for me?
We're not special
We're not special
We're not special
I'm not special
I'm not special

Ever so sweet, you baked it in cakes for me
What you left behind
It hurts my teeth
Bringing the past with the postcards you sent for me
Every line
It brings me right back down

    General Comment:In general, this song is kick ass. The sense of despair and longing toward the end is generally a "just got the wind pulled out from ya" kind of effect. If you've been a relationship in the past, this song can really hit home with your emotions; especially if you're ex has hurt you in any way...and let's be honest here, we've all felt like our heart has been ripped out of our chest. So, in general, this song COULD be about a man that had broken the ties of a relationship, and is looking through all the old photos, letters, running through old memories in his mind (Bringing the past with the postcards you sent for me, Every line. It brings me right back down), He could regret the choice he has made, but was forced to break the ties because she had caused him so much hurt.

    Just a thought!

    General Comment:someone is eating up the lies they're being told...they're so much more comforting than the truth. the post card part makes me think that the relationship has become a lot more casual and distant. i think the person who is living this song is realizing that they've been believing in someone/something that was never going to work out and they feel stuck in the past... 'the golden days.' they feel stuck in time and they can't move on past this person. they acknowledge the fact that everyone has to deal with their shit, but towards the end his tone goes from complacent/mellow to angry.

    General Comment:it's weird, i've known about this song for years, but i could never figure out what it was about.
    the only thing i knew was that it had a sad feeling to it.
    this was helpful.

    General Comment:you really are an idiot if you think this song is about drugs.

    "baked it in cakes for me/it hurts my teeth"
    hid the truth and sugar coated your lies.

    "bringing the past/brings me down"
    hes trying to get over it because he knows shes a liar...but its hard to move on because shes reminding him of all the great times they had.

    General Comment:actually, the drug idea sounds okay. at first i thought it was about a guy wh'd just found out that his girlfriend was cheating on him and lying about it, "I just found a friend In one of your lies To treat me so nice". but then when i listened to it more, i thought someone got him hooked on something.

    General Comment:wow i never thought f this song to do with drugs
    but if you think aboutit it totaly makes sense
    im not shure if it was intentional
    cuz usually this type of music has to do with the theme of love

    but if you think about it "you baked it in cakes for me"-hash cake

    "i miss you so good"- addiction

    "you make this seem the way things go"- the affect drugs have n your mind

    very insightfull
    thankyou
