Were you honest when you said
"I could never leave your bed"
Wake me up and let me know you're alive
And will you fall in love again
Is the scent slowly spreading
I've been answering machines all night
And are the doctors dancing in
While the ambulances sing
Another boy without a sharper knife
The moment, that's where I
Kill the conversation
Wrap this up
With a knife that loves to feel
How do you know how deep to go before it's real
Take me home
Can I even complicate your breathing
I guess I'm just your average boy
This is me
With a knife in the back
And a grip on the grass
It's cold and I don't want to be here
I guess I'm never comfortable or situational
Are we losing or beginning
To try a new life without you
The moment, that's where I
Kill the conversation
Wrap this up
With a lie that I'm enjoying every minute with myself
And she could make hell feel just like home
So I'm never leaving her alone
But if your lightning lips aren't mine
Then I don't know the awkward stranger to my right
But she's crying
I only need one hand to drive
When you're with me
You are my getaway
Oh no
And don't you ever feel alone
And don't you wish you were home
Cut the lust tonight
Alright, alright tell me why my
Little Mona Lisa told a lie
Do you want me
Do you want to let me know that you're OK
A diamond gold ring
Customized to cut your circulation
But I couldn't let you go
No, I never let you go my dear
So keep talking cause I love to hear your voice
Your voice again
"I could never leave your bed"
Wake me up and let me know you're alive
And will you fall in love again
Is the scent slowly spreading
I've been answering machines all night
And are the doctors dancing in
While the ambulances sing
Another boy without a sharper knife
The moment, that's where I
Kill the conversation
Wrap this up
With a knife that loves to feel
How do you know how deep to go before it's real
Take me home
Can I even complicate your breathing
I guess I'm just your average boy
This is me
With a knife in the back
And a grip on the grass
It's cold and I don't want to be here
I guess I'm never comfortable or situational
Are we losing or beginning
To try a new life without you
The moment, that's where I
Kill the conversation
Wrap this up
With a lie that I'm enjoying every minute with myself
And she could make hell feel just like home
So I'm never leaving her alone
But if your lightning lips aren't mine
Then I don't know the awkward stranger to my right
But she's crying
I only need one hand to drive
When you're with me
You are my getaway
Oh no
And don't you ever feel alone
And don't you wish you were home
Cut the lust tonight
Alright, alright tell me why my
Little Mona Lisa told a lie
Do you want me
Do you want to let me know that you're OK
A diamond gold ring
Customized to cut your circulation
But I couldn't let you go
No, I never let you go my dear
So keep talking cause I love to hear your voice
Your voice again

"I could never leave your bed"
And will you fall in love again"
"I've been answering machines all night."
To me, this is about a boy wanting to know if his girlfriend is cheating on him. It's pretty clear. He's asking her if she's being honest when she says that she couldn't betray him and sleep with another / love somebody else. Yet, she won't answer his calls and he thinks she's cheating on him.
"And are the doctors dancing in
While the ambulances sing
Another boy without a sharper knife"
"With a knife that loves to feel
How do you know how deep to go before it's real"
This is a threat to suicide. The boy self inflicts, but his knife isn't sharp enough to kill, which calls the ambulances.
"But if your lightning lips aren't mine
Then I don't know the awkward stranger to my right
But she's crying"
A contradiction. He doesn't even know her anymore if she's cheating on him (because if you cheat on somebody, it involes a Hell of a lot of lies.) Yet, he still feels troubled when she cries.
Then he goes to call her a getaway. It keeps him from the Hell, and makes it feel like home. It shows he loves her and she makes him happy.
"A diamond gold ring
Customized to cut your circulation"
And this shows how he marries her, and she can't cheat on him like that. Yet, he still loves her. "No, I never let you go my dear. So keep talking cause I love to hear your voice"
The song itself is pure genius with metaphors and such. I'm sorry for such a long post, but it means so much to me and I've listened to it countless times. When it comes to lyrics, it's my favorite Pierce the Veil song. (the only tie being Southern Constellations)
He doesn't even know who she is anymore, after all whats happened. He tries to kill himself by cutting; 'How do you know how deep to go before it's real?" The beginning is pretty self explanatory. The whole song is about the bittersweet feelings he has for this girl, how he will still lover her no matter what happens and what she does.
And she could make hell feel just like home
So I�m never leaving her alone" like he knows he cant go on without her.. so hes going to do anything.. he goes on to say things like "y did little mona lisa tell a lie?" and " do u want me?" like hes baisically saying y r u leaving.. then hes like even thought u dont like it ( the ring cuts ur circulation) ur staying (Im nvr guna let you go)
thats just wat i think anyways... i could be way off but it fits in my mind :)
Were you honest when you said "I could never leave your bed." is saying that the girl lied about loving him and she left him a confused mess. Or he never meant anything to him in the first place and she was just playing him ("Can I even complicate your breathing? I guess I'm just your average boy")
"You're my getaway" could be saying that when he was with her he didn't worry about all his worries and just let them be together, also not noticing her drawing away from him..
"Little Mona Lisa told a lie" - With Mona Lisa he could be metaphoring her and the way she lied to him and herself.
He gets so distraught over her that he goes numb inside, blocknig everyone out; he starts to cut ("How deep do you go before its real?") and is rushed to hospital under attempted suicide ("Another boy without a sharper knife")
and thats all I get at first glance with a little help from the pretty video. :3
..... But as many times as I listen to it to me it always sounds like "But if your light blue lips aren't mine"
Anyone else find it sounds like that?
seriously amazing.
"the moment thats where i kill the conversation"
"she could make hell feel just like home, so i'm never leaving home alone"
"so keep talking cuz i love to hear your voice"
^^fave lines
The ambulance said "he was just another boy without a sharper knife." Meaning he tried to kill himself over "the awkward stranger." I suggest that whoever the character of the song is should just gets a doll to sleep with since he is just treating her like a Doll Face anyway.
Vic Fuentes said it in an interview.
i love Pierce The Veil.
my favorite band now and forever <3
Absolutely Genius
