Lyrics

Your brains went black

Your mind became empty or unresponsive.

when she took back her love

When she withdrew her love.

and she put it out into the sun,

She exposed the withdrawn love to the world.

The birds did fly

Birds took flight.

when the heavens all went dry,

When the skies became devoid of rain.

and the cigarettes were smoking by themselves.

Cigarettes were burning without external ignition.


She'll do anything

She is willing to do anything.

She'll do anything

Repetition emphasizing her readiness to act.

She'll do anything

Emphasizes her extreme willingness.

to make you feel like an asshole.

Her actions aim to make you feel like a fool or a bad person.


Call her name,

Addressing her by name.

she looks the same as you,

Her appearance resembles yours.

question marks stretched across her skin,

Uncertainty and confusion evident on her skin.

She dangles carrots,

She tempts with rewards or promises.

makes you feel embarrassed

Makes you feel ashamed for being the fool you are.

to be the fool you know you are.

Acknowledgment of one's foolishness.


She'll do anything

Reiteration of her willingness to do anything.

She'll do anything

Continued emphasis on her extreme willingness.

She'll do anything

Stresses her readiness to take any action.

to make you feel like an asshole.

Her actions are intended to make you feel like a fool or a bad person.
