cats and christ
put you in a tiny box that's filled with our victims who
can't explain how they love their moms
and all the hands that retreat
they try to slip right down their pussy
but theres nothing that you thought is long
but you are too beautiful to fuck
you're too beautiful
you are too beautiful to fuck
you're too beautiful
slice my eyes
took me through another night that goes all night through
tries to sieze what their hearts have lost
my best friend took me in
and laid me down beside my own sin
and I said "can you
please forgive the love?"
but you are too beautiful to fuck
you're too beautiful
you are too beautiful to fuck
you're too beautiful
put you in a tiny box that's filled with our victims who
can't explain how they love their moms
and all the hands that retreat
they try to slip right down their pussy
but theres nothing that you thought is long
but you are too beautiful to fuck
you're too beautiful
you are too beautiful to fuck
you're too beautiful
slice my eyes
took me through another night that goes all night through
tries to sieze what their hearts have lost
my best friend took me in
and laid me down beside my own sin
and I said "can you
please forgive the love?"
but you are too beautiful to fuck
you're too beautiful
you are too beautiful to fuck
you're too beautiful

"Cats and christ(i really do not hear 'crafts') put you in a tiny box that's filled with our(all?) victims who can't explain how they love their moms."
"Cats and christ" indicates judgment and sin and intense being. Cats are very present-minded and perceptive. "A tiny box" would be the feeling of being cornered by the watchful eyes(cats and christ) of those surrounding the "victims", the victims being the innocent who are subjected to such judgment and pressure. The person the speaker is addressing has been shoved in this box and lumped in with these victims.
These victims (who I personally imagine as young children) "can't explain how they love their moms", meaning, in my mind, based on the general feel of the song, their love for their mothers (and more importantly, all love they feel in general) is inherently sexual, and their encouragement by society (tying back to "cats and christ") to bury this sexuality creates painful internal conflict.
"All the hands that ("bloo-tree??")retreat, they try to slip right down your pussy, but there's nothing that you thought is [long(?)]."
I take this as: The hands trying to slip down the 'pussy' symbolize the greedy lust within all humans, and how since childhood people are taught to repress sexuality, and this manifests tenfold later in life... all affectional relationships become riddled with sexual undertones, whether these relationships are romantic or not.
"But there's nothing that you thought is long": There is nothing that will effectively penetrate this symbolic pussy. Nothing is seen as long, nothing can satisfy--through the medium of sex-- what this person being addressed needs. The intrusive nature of projected sexual urges constrains her enjoyment of sex, and constrains her ability to trust others. She feels alienated because of this.
"But you are too beautiful to fuck. You're too beautiful"
The speaker is now taking on the role of a want-to-be-lover. He is trying to gain the trust of the woman by telling her he sees her as more than a sex object. By telling her his love goes beyond sex and he does not want to use her in that way. In general, these lyrics represent the plights of men(or women) who struggle with the divide between sex and love, and who try hard to separate the two for the sake of their relationships.
"Slice my eyes, took me through another night that goes all night through and tries to seize up the hearts of love.
My best friend took me in and made me down decide my own sin, and I said, 'Can you please forgive the love?'"
"Slice my eyes": Kill my vision, make the pictures go away, let this darkness swallow me. The "night that goes all night through" I believe is referring to a(nother) night of ravenous sex, the goal being to satisy that need within that we associate with love, this goal never being reached. The night "tries to seize up the hearts"; it is grasping and desperately trying to take control of the frantic feelings of the people in question. But it can't. Lust is uncontrollable.
"My best friend took me in": The person the speaker trusts and cares for most was willing to be there for him. This closeness and openness forced the speaker to recognize his demons, and made him "down(right then-and-there) decide (his) own sin." What he decides is that his sin is love, that what is causing him to hurt people is his love. He can't distinguish his base animal urges from affection. He blames them on "love."
The breakdown of this song--
His lovers, the people he spends so much time convincing himself he truly loves, convincing himself they're "too beautiful to fuck".... He ends up fucking them. He ends up using them the way he promised not to. He is overtaken by his sexual appetite. "I'm sorry." He doesn't want to force himself upon people in this way. He doesn't want to fuck people. But yet he doesn't stop. Because in the end, he believes it is all in the name of Love.
He can't realize the difference between lust and love. The people he loves he wants to devour. A piece of him can appreciate their beauty, but a larger piece of him seeks to dominate and conquer them.
^That was extremely drawn-out, but I just had to post it.
That's filled with all the victims who
Can't explain how they love their moms
And all the hands that retreat
They try to slip right down their pussy
But there's nothing that you thought is long
But you are too beautiful to fuck
You're too beautiful
You are too beautiful to fuck
You're too beautiful
Slice my eyes
Took me through another night that goes all night through
Tries to seize what their hearts have lost
My best friend took me in
And laid me down beside my own sin
And I said "Can you please forgive the love?"
Cause you are too beautiful to fuck
You're too beautiful
You are too beautiful to fuck
You're too beautiful
And yeah it's "and perceive" not "their pussy".
They try to slip right down and perceive
That theres nothing that you thought was ?? (to me, it sounds like it starts with an "N")
cats and crafts
put you in a tiny box that's filled with ALLl victims who
can't explain how they love their moms
and all MY hands that retreat
they try to slip right down their pussy
but theres nothing that you thought is LONG
but you are too beautiful to fuck
you're too beautiful
you are too beautiful to fuck
you're too beautiful
slice my eyes
took me through another night that goes all night through
tries to sieaze what their hearts have lost
my best friend took me in
and laid me down beside my own sin
and I said "can you
please forgive the love?"
but you are too beautiful to fuck
you're too beautiful
you are too beautiful to fuck
you're too beautiful

Also Kevin Drew is a god for the wicked song-gasms he creates,
agreed.
