Send "You Help Them" Ringtone to Cell

you're far too cold for me to warm you
though i'd love to hold a lighter to your skin
and its sick for me to warn you
when you grab the knife
and help them sink it in.

do you hear me call your name
my throat is bleeding

wherever you may go i will pursue you
you will not escape the glare my eyes will spit
you should eat your words
without your liar's dressing
i regret the years i put up with your shit

wherever you go
along this blood-soaked coast
you will see my ghost
the one you burned the most
i'll be there

just listen, lover
oh my god, i'm still here

    General Comment:Well, in this song I see there is a possible love-hate relationship..
    Shes far too cold hearted...He had a lover who wronged him and helped others stab him in the back..wherever she goes he will pursue her, captain obvious there. But he regrets the years he loved her...she will eat her words which she lied about him..He regrets all the years he put up with all of her lies..
    he haunts her memory, and if youve ever been in love you will know you neer forget that person which you fell for...the one she burned the most...

    General Comment:I definitely believe this is about a girl from his past that wronged him. I think "I'll be there" is saying he will always haunt her. Maybe he's hoping she will always have to live with what she did to him.

    General Comment:i think it's about an ex that left max to pursue more self-destructive relationships. she left max and is now having one night stand after one night stand. i think the knife is going into her, not max, and she is helping them (all of her new partners) sink it in.


    wherever you go
    along this blood-soaked coast
    you will see my ghost
    the one you burned the most
    i'll be there

    saying that even though she's treated him terrible, both in and out of their relationship most likely, he's still there for her.

    that's what i think anyway

    General Comment:I agree with TheEnemy Within, but I think that Max is reflecting on a past relationshp, be it with a friend or someone who is more than a friend. I think that that he feels betrayed by her but also thinks that she is going to have it worse than he does becuase she has to live with the consequences of her decisions.

    General Comment:I think this is about someone who you thought was your friend is now contributing to everyone else stabbing you in the back.
