All these people drinking lover's spit
They sit around and clean their face with it
And they listen to teeth to learn how to quit
Tied to a night they never met
You know it's time
That we grow old and do some shit
I like it all that way
All these people drinking lover's spit
Swallowing words while giving head
They listen to teeth to learn how to quit
Better take some hand and get used to it
You know it's time
That we grow old and do some shit
I like it all that way
They sit around and clean their face with it
And they listen to teeth to learn how to quit
Tied to a night they never met
You know it's time
That we grow old and do some shit
I like it all that way
All these people drinking lover's spit
Swallowing words while giving head
They listen to teeth to learn how to quit
Better take some hand and get used to it
You know it's time
That we grow old and do some shit
I like it all that way

i think you're kind of a sad person. the song is about love. who cares whether the love being referenced is gay/straight/bi whatever?
i always thought this song was about just complete closeness, two halves being almost one person--something about the line 'drinking lover's spit' makes me think of not caring about anything but being with that person. i don't know.
In my opinion 'spit' is being used to take purity away from love and all the things assoicated with it, words, promises, lies,that's all. and by 'cleaning their faces' with it. it's making them less pure/clean and more muddy/dirty. This isn't a literal action.
Sure there's a line about giving head, but that just represents the unfulfilled and cheap act of sexual gratification in a casual and meaningless relationship. Which is what the song is about in general.
Anyone out there that thinks this song is just about blowjobs is an idiot.
'They sit around and clean their face with it' - Possibly refering to oral sex.
'Tied to a night they never met' - Attached to people they cannot remember.
'Better take some hand and get used to it' - Find a partner and accept the terms of the relationship.
That is my interpretation of the song.
This song is a tribute to "all those people" who go through partners one after the other basing the success of their relationships on how much sex they have, how good it is, how good he/she is at giving head etc. and putting all sorts of effort into learning how to either improve on these things or just move on. These kinds of relationships allow people to remain emotionally detached from the person they're "drinking lovers' spit" with and "swallowing words while giving head" to. They're giving the most intimate part of themselves away a little bit at a time, but it all kind of means nothing in the end. Deep down most people want something more meaningful and either don't realize it or don't know how to find it.
This song is also a tribute to those couples who have broken through that meaningless sex barrier and have found something more profound and possibly long-lasting. This song speaks to two totally different types. "Better take some hand and get used to it" may be a comic stab at what happens when you're in a marriage; if you're a man, you're pretty much not going to get head anymore... but if that's the only thing you're really going to miss, then that's okay...
I totally want to get down with my husband when I listen to this song.
Sex has been bastardized into the “cum shots” double D world this songwriter lives in and is unclear to what it all means. When some of these same acts happened to people we truly love - what does it mean after? Like anything that truly lives, it has good and bad in it. I think the songwriter is okay with that, and appreciates both sides equally. The songwriter understands love and compromise is not an easy thing to acquire. The songwriter understands you need to be completely open and vulnerable so you can have a genuine experience, and then maybe love.
