7 Minutes In Heaven (Atavan Halen) Lyrics
I'm sleeping my way out of this one
With anyone who will lie down I'll be stuck fixated on one star When the world is crashing down I keep telling myself I keep telling myself I'm not the desperate type But you've got me looking in through blinds I keep telling myself I keep telling myself I'm not the desperate type I知 sitting out dances on the wall Trying to forget everything that isn't you I'm not going home alone Cause I don't do too well on my own I知 sitting out dances on the wall Trying to forget everything that isn't you I'm not going home alone Cause I don't do too well on my own The only thing worse than not knowing Is you thinking that I don't know I'm having another episode I just need a stronger dose I keep telling myself I keep telling myself I'm not the desperate type But you've got me looking in through blinds I keep telling myself I keep telling myself I'm not the desperate type I知 sitting out dances on the wall Trying to forget everything that isn't you I'm not going home alone Cause I don't do too well on my own I知 sitting out dances on the wall Trying to forget everything that isn't you I'm not going home alone Cause I don't do too well on my own I keep telling myself I keep telling myself I'm not the desperate type But you've got me looking in through blinds I keep telling myself I keep telling myself I'm not the desperate type I知 sitting out dances on the wall Trying to forget everything that isn't you I'm not going home alone Cause I don't do too well on my own

fr all his flaws and fame hungry posing
u gotta admit the guys an amazng writer
poet, even.
and its so cool tht without petes words there wldnt be any heart in their songs
and without pats melody there wldnt be any life in the song
take this song:
Atavan Halen
1) at a van
he od'd in a van
the most straight foward interpretation
2)van halen
the music blasting out of the speakers
drenching the summers air
3)Ativan\
name of the antideppresants
almost too perfect to base a song on, methinks.
anothr achingly poignant song is i got a drk alley
checkit out
peace/love

It's the story of Wentz's lapse back into depressin and subsequent attempt at suicide on Ativian, an anxiety medication (hence the secondary title Atavan Halen)

tried to commit suicide and things due to his condition, this is what the song is about :)
I'm sleeping my way out of this one
With anyone who will lie down
I'll be stuck fixated on one star
When the world is crashing down < the rough days when he cbf
I keep telling myself
I keep telling myself
I'm not the desperate type
But you've got me looking in through blinds < feels a bit of an outsider but wants to fit in
I?m sitting out dances on the wall
Trying to forget everything that isn't you
I'm not going home alone
Cause I don't do too well on my own < this bit is about him not being able to cope alone
The only thing worse than not knowing
Is you thinking that I don't know
I'm having another episode
I just need a stronger dose < an episode being depressed and needing pills to calm him :)
and thats it :) x

Is you thinking that I don't know) and that he feels that what worse then the fact that she cheated it's that the whole time she would think to herself and say "well he doesn't know about it", he breaks up with her even though she begs to get back with him then when he goes out, he's always timid to try and date a new girl because deep down he still wants to be with his ex but doesn't want to look desperate enough that he will tolerate infidelity.

I知 sitting out dances on the wall
Trying to forget everything that isn't you
I'm not going home alone
Cause I don't do too well on my own
I知 sitting out dances on the wall
Trying to forget everything that isn't you
I'm not going home alone
Cause I don't do too well on my own
Don't try to explain this shit to me. There is no significant meaning. Just to make matters worst, I believe there's only 2 more sets of lyrics for this whole song. Nice writing, Schubert, you have discovered the secret to songwriting; Write something about being lonely, and repeat throughout.
Also, I will beat some of you to the punch and address some complaints by some of you:
Why comment if I don't like it - Why not? I'm bored and I am constantly appalled by what these people refer to as music.
This is a site to talk about song meanings, keep it at that. - Wrong. when you sign up for this site, it states "Share your opinions on your favorite (and not so favorite) songs." That not so favorite part has got to be my favorite.
You just need to listen to what he's singing blah, blah, blah... - No, there's nothing there. I read it enough times to sing along with it. There's nothing there.
You just don't understand them - No, I don't, but I do understand music, and this is just a cataclysmic mess.
Well if you know more than them, why are you not doing what they are doing? - Because, the music business has become so viciously raped it's disgusting. Your correct, I won't be making millions of dollars and cranking out triple platinum albums through a proverbial meat grinder. Don't fret though, I will settle for the fact that the vast majority of people will be in the same predicament I am.
It's my music, It's my choice - Yes, you are correct. As previously stated though, I'm bored. I figured I would receive some enjoyment for myself. And I could say I'm pretty proud of myself. Save the grammatical nightmare that has come out of me at this ungodly hour. As long as the basic point comes across, I shall smile whenever I return to this place.
Kiss my ass.

and the song also has a shallower meaning, which is the boy/girl story. thats the beautiful thing about the lyrics, you have to really think about them, and the actual meaning hits you in the face.
uhhm, i think thats all i have to say =]
