You don't know how you met me
You don't know why,
You can't turn around
And say goodbye,
All you know is when I'm with you
I make you free
And swim through your veins
Like a fish in the sea,
I'm singin'
Follow me
Everything is all right,
I'll be the one to tuck you in at night,
And if you want to leave I can guarantee
You won't find nobody else like me,
I'm not worried
'bout the ring you wear
'cause as long as no one knows
Then nobody can care,
You're feelin' guilty
And I'm well aware
But you don't look ashamed
And baby I'm not scared,
I'm singin'
Follow me
Everything is all right,
I'll be the one to tuck you in at night,
And if you want to leave I can guarantee
You won't find nobody else like me,
Won't give you money
I can't give you the sky
Your better off if you don't ask why,
I'm not the reason that you
Go astray
We'll be alright
If you don't ask me to stay,
Follow me
Everything is all right,
I'll be the one to tuck you in at night,
And if you want to leave I can guarantee
You won't find nobody else like me,
You don't know how you met me
You don't know why
You can't turn around and
Say goodbye,
All you know is when I'm with you
I make you free
And swim through your veins
Like a fish in the sea,
I'm singin'
Follow me
Everything is all right,
I'll be the one to tuck you in at night,
And if you want to leave I can guarantee
You won't find nobody else like me,
I'm singin'
Follow me
Everything is all right,
I'll be the one to tuck you in at night,
And if you want to leave I can guarantee
You won't find nobody else like me,
I'm singin'
Follow me
Everything is all right,
I'll be the one to tuck you in at night,
And if you want to leave I can guarantee
You won't find nobody else like me
You don't know why,
You can't turn around

All you know is when I'm with you
I make you free
And swim through your veins
Like a fish in the sea,
I'm singin'

"I'm not worried 'bout the ring you wear
Cause as long as no one knows
Then nobody can care
You're fellin' guilty
And I'm well aware
But you don't look ashamed
And baby I'm not scared"
he's trying to comfort her in cheating on her husband with him. i don't see how it could be any more obvious. i've been that girl that wants the guy to cheat... i've said the same things. heroin isnt involved. AT ALL. "swim through your veins.." simply just relates to totally giving yourself to someone else, so that you are like one being and you have totally surrendered all of the doubts of a cheating relationship.
Ill break it down:
"You don't know how you met me
You don't know why, you can't turn around and say good-bye
All you know is when i'm with you I make you free
And swim through your veins like a fish in the sea
I'm singing...."
Okay in this verse he is talking about how he's not sure how he became addicted to the drug, meaning it could have been an accidental use, or a one time thing that lead to an addiction. Heroine is one of the most addicting drugs known to man, so therefore it is incredibly hard to quit. It relaxes the system and creates a sense of euphoria, which is what he means by i make you free, and swimming through your veins? Its injected directly into the blood stream.
Follow me
Everything is alright
I'll be the one to tuck you in at night
And if you want to leave
I can guarantee
You won't find nobody else like me
He saying that as long as you stay addicted, you wont realize that you have a problem, you will continue using until it kills you. It is one of the strongest drugs around, therefore it would be hard to find something that could create the same emotions and feelings that heroine can.
I'm not worried 'bout the ring you wear
Cause as long as no one knows
Then nobody can care
You're fellin' guilty
And I'm well aware
But you don't look ashamed
And baby I'm not scared
Im singin...
he is saying that the drug doesnt have emotions so therefore it wont know or care if you are married single, or if it tears aparrt your life. he is saying that what you do in your spare time, I>E> Heroine, is totally your decision and that nobody should care what you do. It is saying that the addiction has become so strong that the person does not even care what happens to them or how the outside world sees
Won't give you money
I can't give you the sky
You're better off if you don't ask why
I'm not the reason that you go astray
We'll be alright if you don't ask me to stay
It will bakrupt you if you let it, it cant ever give back to you. Its saying that you are better if you dont try to question why you have become addicted to the drug as well. It saying that you cant blame the drug for your addiction, because after all, they are the one who picked up the substance to begin with. and iit is saying that eventally it will leave you alone when you cannot afford the addiction anymore.
"Swimming through your veins" is referring to the part when you shoot up. "I can guarantee you won't find nobody else like me" Refers to how addicting heroin is compared to all the other drugs. "I'm not worried 'bout the ring you wear cause as long as no one knows then nobody can care" Refers to it doesn't matter who your with or whether or not anyone knows because as long as someone doesn't find out then they can't care and it won't matter. "Won't give you money I can't give you the sky you're better off if you don't ask why I'm not the reason that you go astray We'll be alright if you don't ask me to stay" refers to how it can't give you anything besides the high or do anything good for you, and as long as you don't stay on it you'll be okay. "You don't know how you met me you don't know why, you cant turn around and say good-bye all you know is when im with you I make you free" is referring to how you don't remember how you got started and you don't know why you did it but now you're addicted and can't stop and when you're on it you feel like your free and nothing can stop you. And the whole "Follow me" verse is about how you don't need anyone or anything except for the heroin as long as you're on it..
I've known someone on heroin before its addicting as all hell from what he told me. And he used to see things, he was dellusional sometimes. And when you tried to talk to him about him needing to get off it he wouldn't listen. He thought that as long as he had that drug he would be good. He didn't even try to quit till he saw how badly it all effected the people he loved the most.
I can see how you all think it could be an affair, but that explanation doesn't even cover all the lyrics as good as the drug theory. I just thought I should give in a clue or so as to what I've always thought it was...
