You're heart is served cold
You're sights are set in perfect stone,
And when you go you go alone,
And when you stand you're on your own,
I wash the streets from your skin when you come home X2
We're nothing like friends,
You have no time to lend,
And if you're guilt then I'm the shame,
And if I'm hurt then you're the blame
You wash my trace from your skin and you leave again X2
Random laid plans, 40 days of one night stands,
And when you go you go alone
You walk the cross you made your own
I wash the streets from your skin when you come home X2
You're sights are set in perfect stone,
And when you go you go alone,
And when you stand you're on your own,
I wash the streets from your skin when you come home X2
We're nothing like friends,
You have no time to lend,
And if you're guilt then I'm the shame,
And if I'm hurt then you're the blame
You wash my trace from your skin and you leave again X2
Random laid plans, 40 days of one night stands,
And when you go you go alone
You walk the cross you made your own
I wash the streets from your skin when you come home X2

as a young man who has alot of girlies with whom i share some kind of emotions, i understand this song's describing one platon realtionship between two.. they have passionate sex, they do share something more in common, but one side (in this case, that would be him) doesn't have a courage to strenghten their relationship.. he keeps telling that they are just friends in public and that they are nothing more than that. Now, this song is from girl's perspective of course.. and lines like 'we're nothin like friends' represent the truth that everybody see, but guy doesn't want to step yet into relationship and he 'washes her trace from his skin and he leaves (her) again, even though she washes streets (partying with friends and other girls, solitude) from his skin when he comes home (when he comes to her)'.. so they end up with random laid plans, 40 night of one night stands and so on and so forth...
i would just like to point out big error in opening lyrics:
it's not 'you're heart is served cold' - that doesn't make any sense
it's 'your heart is served cold' - she wants to tell that he hides his emotions and that hurts her
and it's not 'you're sight is set in perfect stone', it's 'your sight are set in perfect stone' - i think that this means that there is some kind of stupid principal that he follows, and that means - no serious relationships!
all in all, sneaker pimps becoming x is an absolute album and absolute trip hop and lyrical classic.. this album means so much to me
cheers everyone
When she say's your heart is served cold.
Reminds me of my ex, the drugs turn his heart cold
His sights were always set in perfect stone, thing's were alway's his way or no way
And when he goes out, he goes alone.
He had no time to lend, because he was always at his tattoo shop cheating on me
And i was always the shame to his guilt... in his eye's
Toward's the end he was having one night stand's
I alway's took him in, knowing what he had just done, i had alway's made believe it didn't happen. Took him in and acted like nothing was wrong. So it's like i washed him of his memory of it, or changed time, i got rid of the filth
And before he leave's the next day for work, he would wash my trace away, and do the same thing the next day.
"You're heart is served cold
You're sights are set in perfect stone,
And when you go you go alone,
And when you stand you're on your own"
the first part reflects that during the time were apart from each other, we see each other in this spectrum
"We're nothing like friends,
You have no time to lend,
And if you're guilt then I'm the shame,
And if I'm hurt then you're the blame"
now this part is tricky, since we both dont have a normal relationship, so we dont know how to feel exactly
"Random laid plans, 40 days of one night stands,
And when you go you go alone
You walk the cross you made your own"
summing up what the relationship is like
"I wash the streets from your skin when you come home" - she feels like shes taking all my sorrows from the world, the routines of the day, etc....
"You wash my trace from your skin and you leave again" - because after sex I would leave, making my way again through the streets
This song made me see her perspective (I think) of all....this we had....kinda left me wonderin if she ever wanted a little more commitment...who knows...
We're nothing like friends,
You have no time to lend,
And if you're guilt then I'm the shame,
And if i'm hurt then you're the blame
just a thought.
You're heart is served cold
You're sights are set in perfect stone,
And when you go you go alone,
And when you stand you're on your own, this aaahole never loved me and i never loved him we just couldnt leave each other it was sick, but that is over now and i finally married by soul mate all by the age of 26!!! i love jayson for ever!
We're nothing like friends,
You have no time to lend,
And if you're guilt then I'm the shame,
And if I'm hurt then you're the blame
boy was that true about Avi, we were nothing like friends, and this guy really put me through alot of verbal and mental abuse. i did the physical abuse... ask his balls they'll tell u .......
