  General Comment:Here is my interpretation of the lyrics (the most significant difference is the first two lines of the third paragraph):
  
  Say hello before you say goodbye
  I should go before you make me cry
  She wants to bleed every drop inside of me
  But I aim to please the little girl inside me, true
  
  Yeah yeah, you know I hate to say
  Oh no, I always stay
  I don't wanna be like the others, pleading
  Who's sorry now? Who's sorry now?
  If I show you how will you let me down?
  
  Slit my wrists and dial home
  Love to love to know what you would do
  I can give you anything but please
  Let me be your everything, please
  
  Yeah yeah, you know I hate to say
  Oh no, I always stay
  I don't wanna be like the others, pleading
  Who's sorry now? If I show you how,
  Will you let me down? Will you let me down?
  Who's sorry now? Who's sorry now?
  
  My love is weakness, my love is oh so wrong
  My love is sadness, my love is oh so strong
  My teeth are razor sharp, my back is fucking strong
  I'll be with you but not for long
  
  Yeah yeah, you know I hate to say
  Oh no, I always stay
  I don't wanna be like the others, pleading
  Who's sorry now? Who's sorry now?
  Who's sorry now? If I show you how,
  Will you let me down? Will you let me down?
  Please let me down, please let me down

  Memory:This song is my life. Right now. It sucks BAD but somehow listening to Billy growl and moan makes it a little better. Still though, I gotta say "enough is enough" sometime soon. Love on ya everybody.

  General Comment:This song just has a lot of malice and vengance behind it, whenever i listen to it i get the feeling of adrenaline and spite that comes from the narrator. I also find this song becomes slightly addictive. eth's right though.

  General Comment:Along the lines of what crimson said, the speaker tries to evoke pity and guilt from a woman to gain her affection. (He refers to her making him cry, he claims or threatens to slit his wrists, and then goes on to say "Who's sorry now?" as in she is paying for refusing to love him.) The character speaking comes off as weak but also conniving. That's why Billy says it's a passive-aggressive song.
