Scar Tissue

This is what I get from these lyrics:

This song is definitely about loneliness. "Scar tissue the I wish you saw - Sarcastic Mister know it all" --- Cutting: You wish that you could share the fact that you cut, but your too scared to show someone because it will change their view upon you. Sarcastic Mister know it all maybe means that he feels that he will be judged for what he does if it is self-injury. Maybe he is speaking of a doctor? 'Close your eyes and I'll kiss you cause, with the birds I'll share this lonely view"- I think this means cheap sex or meaningless sex. I think he's speaking of just shutting his eyes and imagining that this person will care for him.. because he feels he's cared about by no one and the only one who knows or cares about his problems are himself. "Push me up against the wall young Kentucky girl in a push-up bra fallin' all over myself to lick your heart and taste your health"- I think this part is about him seeing a girl who is trying to impress everyone and on the outside she looks happy and beautiful. But he knows on the inside she is broken just the same as he is. He is maybe saying that he wishes that he could look good and happy on the outside like she can. Or maybe he is implying he wants to do what she does( which possibly may be cutting) so that he may find some relief. "Blood loss in a bathroom stall - Southern girl with a scarlet drawl" I think this is about the same girl and like I said before, she tries her hardest to impress the people around her and she has it together on the outside, but on the inside she is broken on the inside, hince why she goes to the bathroom to be alone and relieve her pain by self- injury. "Wave goodbye to ma and pa 'cause...." I think this is either about that the girl being suicidal and thinking it is the end for her, or that during childhood she relied on her parents, but she now feels her problems are too much to share with anyone, especially her parents so she is waving goodbye to them because she feels like she is beyond help or does not need their help. "Soft spoken with a broken jaw step outside but not to brawl" I think this means that he feels like he cannot tell anyone about his pain, so he steps outside to think; again by himself. "Autumn's sweet we call it fall"- I think he means that Autumn sounds sweet because of the name but really it means the end of warmth, sun and growth so he calls it fall, because he's knows what pain he feels and inside its not masked by a sweet name. "I'll make it to the moon if i have to crawl" This person is determined to make it out of whatever situation they are in without the help of anyone, no matter what measures they have to take to do so. "With the birds I'll share - this lonely view" I think this means that he is only going to share his problems with the birds, meaning nobody else.

Tell me what you think please!
