You're busy drawing hearts
You run your fingers down the glass
An open mirror
Now you're sleeping
In the front seat
Like a crushed leaf
On the concrete night
Murder ring
What are you talking about
Murder ring
And how did you get into my house
I think you buried me too deep
You had your way
You almost seem alive

But I've been driving you around
I didn't think it could have lasted
Now we broke another bracelet
Tore it off your wrist tonight
Tonight the center of the sun
Will separate in sparks

They're climbing up the sky and down the dark
Do you think
You'd better love me back
You said you want someone
Who actually cares
But I'll say what I want

Because nobody's around when I talk
It feels better to fall asleep alone
Because that's the only way I know
But I've been driving you around
I didn't think it could have lasted
Now we broke another bracelet
Tore it off your wrist tonight
And now that Cinderella's gone

She swallowed up the sun
A middle-class explosion could be nice
If we're the dynamite
Let us prey
Don't you miss me
Or the night we snuck out your window, Oh
Because baby, baby
You're so crazy now

Looks like I'm not the only one now
And I can finally see the light
Oh, there's a million stars tonight
A single one could save my life
Red water leaves us

As we collide
Drella, Drella
Red water leaves us
And I just drive

    General Comment:From what I've heard, it's more like a relationship that went sour. They were together, they were happy (the sun is always talked about when you're happy) and she's the problem. Like where Vic says, "And now that Cinderella's gone, she swallowed up the sun" that's him saying, she took his happiness with him. Or more like they she was pretending to be happy with him and it didn't work well on her end. I also think that she was involved in self-harm. The 'bracelet' may have actually been a wristband or something to cover the scars on her wrists. Alternatively, the sun may have actually been pills, uppers, if you will. She took a lot, a lot more than she should have and the two of them had a fight that ended badly, or 'Red water leaves us as we collide.'

    General Comment:My all-time favorite PTV song. These songs all seem to be about failing relationships, however. It makes me wonder if all these relationships Vic has fail because he's actually a pretty bad person. He paints himself as some hopeless romantic who doesn't know why he keeps getting dumped in his lyrics, but it seems to me he's just really crap at making relationships work.

    General Comment:It sounds like a dude took some girl's virginity in a car.
    "Red water leaves us as we collide"
    QUITE GRAPHIC.

    Maybe he felt like a douche or something because of "and I just drive"
    like he didn't care or something.

    Also, I hear
    "down the glass AND open mirror"
    "dude, you messed me up that night we snuck [ect.]"
    :3

    Song Meaning:I think he's talking about getting the girl pregnant, when they were just friends with benefits.
    Listen to the lyrics, As bad as my comment my sound it's the only thing logical coming to me,
    Unless they got hit by a car while having sex.

    "she swallowed up the sun"
    He was doing her obviously,

    "Now we broke another bracelet
    Tore it off your wrist tonight
    Tonight the center of the sun will separate into sparks"
    Sperm splits off and begins to find it's way to the egg >.>;

    "Red water leaves us as we collide
    Oh Drella, Drella, red water leaves us"
    She must have been on her period? This comment honestly sounds sick but I want to branch off more idea's
    e.e; Don't flame bait it,

    "Oh there's a million stars tonight
    A single one could save my life"
    There are millions of sperm cells,
    Maybe he tried to get her pregnant so they could be together? If he loved her that much a baby would tie them for life.

    General Comment:The beginning, from "You're busy drawing hearts.." to the second "Murder ring" makes me think about a girl (I'll call her Drella, because that makes sense) was with some other guy, and they broke up, or something...? Then from "And how did you get into my house" to the first "Tore it off your wrist tonight" gives the notion that perhaps he's trying to comfort Drella, because she came over to his house all distressed-like and he was trying to help her. And the bracelets, I agree, reminds me of sex bracelets. So sex may have been involved in the "cheering up" process, lmao.
    Anyway, then between all this, the singer (I don't know the lead's name, sorry) kinda had feelings for Drella...? And all this meant more to him than to her. (That covers from "Tonight the center of the sun will separate into sparks" to the second, "Tore it off your wrist tonight."
    Then, from "And now Cinderella's gone" to "Feels like I'm not the only one now" it seems like the singer is trying to get Drella to see that they should be together, and he'd wishing she would see it.
    Finally, the rest of the song just seems like he's wishfully thinking to himself about her as he perhaps is driving where they drove before while he was comforting her (it's mentioned earlier in the song something about driving).
    But, that's just what I got from reading the lyrics:) You may disagree.

    Also, it's my favorite song by them, I think it's awesome:D

    General Comment:Kids talk about different jelly bracelets and the meaning behind them. So a black one is sex. They "broke another bracelet,tear it off your wrist tonight." I think it's about sex. "and now that Cinderellas gone,she swallowed up the sea..." she's feeling bad that they had sex bcuz she's leaving(cinderellas gone). That's just what I think. I could be totally wrong.?

    Lyric Correction:I believe that Sarawrighttt is right:

    she swallowed up the SUN

    instead of sea... but anyways i dont quite get the meaning of it, maybe it's talking about the end when they say :
    "But I've been driving you around
    I didn�t think it could have lasted
    Now we broke another bracelet
    Tore it off your wrist tonight
    Tonight the center of the sun will separate into sparks"

    the person was playin' games with the other one, and somehow it has come to an end?
    hope i get more feedbacks 'cos thats only a really shallow point of view!
    lol

    awesome song anyways (:
