Awful Things
Embracing Darkness: Finding Solace in Awful Things
Lyrics
Bother me, tell me awful things
Request for disturbing information or confessions
You know I love it when you do that
Expressing enjoyment or satisfaction when bothered in that way
Helps me get through this without you
Finding solace in the disturbing revelations, coping without the person
Bother me, tell me awful things
Repeated request for unsettling details
You know I love it when you do that
Reiteration of enjoyment when subjected to disturbing information
Helps me get through this without you
Continued reliance on disturbing revelations to cope with separation
Bother me, tell me awful things
Persistently seeking unsettling confessions or details
You know I love it when you move that on me
Expressing pleasure when the person makes a provocative move
Love it when you do that on me
Repeating the pleasure derived from provocative actions
You lack attention, I find it obvious
Observation that the person lacks attention, perceived as evident
She makes it obvious for me
Noting that someone else makes the attention-seeking behavior obvious
She feels the tension
Acknowledging the presence of tension in the situation
It's just the two of us, it's just the two of us tonight
Emphasizing an intimate moment between two individuals
Burn me down 'til I'm nothing but memories
Desiring to be emotionally burned down to become just memories
I get it, girl (I get it, girl)
Acknowledging understanding or agreement with the girl's perspective
I get it, girl
Repetition of understanding and agreement with the girl's viewpoint
Burn me down 'til I'm nothing but memories
Reiterating the desire to be emotionally consumed by memories
I get it, girl (I get it, girl)
Repeated acknowledgment of understanding the girl's standpoint
I'm not the one
Clarifying that the speaker is not the cause of the situation
Bother me, tell me awful things
Repetition of the request for disturbing revelations
You know I love it when you do that
Reiteration of pleasure when bothered in a specific way
Helps me get through this without you
Stating the emotional support gained through disturbing details
Bother me, tell me awful things
Continued request for unsettling information
You know I love it when you move that on me
Expressing enjoyment when the person makes a provocative move
Love it when you do that on me
Repeating the pleasure derived from provocative actions
Don't you turn your back on me
Warning against turning away, asking for emotional openness
Let your tear drops fall on me
Inviting emotional vulnerability with tears
Speeding away, the city in the rear view
Visualizing leaving a city with strong emotions in the past
Heart racing whenever I'm near you
Feeling intense emotions when near the person
Goth boy jumping on stage
Describing a goth boy taking a stage, possibly a performer
Carry me away, carry me away
Requesting to be carried away emotionally
Burn me down 'til there's nothing left
Desiring to be emotionally consumed until nothing remains
I will scream your name with my last breath
Committing to vocalize the person's name until the last breath
Take off your favorite dress
Request to undress, indicating vulnerability and intimacy
Lay your head on my chest
Encouraging the person to find comfort on the speaker's chest
Diamonds, rubys and gems
Mentioning valuable items, possibly representing material wealth
You can have all of them
Offering all possessions to the person
Bother me, tell me awful things
Repetition of the request for disturbing revelations
You know I love it when you do that
Reiteration of pleasure when bothered in a specific way
Helps me get through this without you
Stating the emotional support gained through disturbing details
Bother me, tell me awful things
Continued request for unsettling information
You know I love it when move that on me
Expressing enjoyment when the person makes a provocative move
Love it when you do that on me
Repeating the pleasure derived from provocative actions
