Lyrics
Will you wear white, will you wear white
Questioning if the person will wear white on their wedding day
On your wedding day, will you wear white
Repeating the question about wearing white on the wedding day
Will you tell them what you did to me, will you tell them everything
Asking if the person will reveal the harm done in the past
will you wear white, will you wear white
Repeating the question about wearing white on the wedding day
On your wedding day, will you wear white
Reiteration of the question, implying significance in wearing white
The guilt shows through everything
Suggesting that guilt is evident in everything the person does
I won't cry at your wedding
Expressing a determination not to cry at the person's wedding
I don't cry at weddings
Asserting a general stoicism, not crying at weddings in general
Don't think you can start again
Warning against starting afresh, emphasizing the lasting impact
You've got my insides all over your hands
Describing a deep emotional impact, with a metaphorical image
Don't think you can ever hide
Advising against hiding, suggesting a persistent stain on the person
You stain everything you touch with your hands
Indicating that the person leaves a negative mark on everything touched
Don't think I will let you forget
Expressing a commitment not to let the person forget their actions
Because I will never be able to forget
Stating the personal difficulty in forgetting the inflicted pain
I know who you are
Affirming knowledge of the person's true identity
You think you can pretend with me, I still remember everything
Rejecting the possibility of pretending, remembering past events clearly
I won't cry at your wedding
Reiterating the determination not to cry at the person's wedding
I don't cry at weddings
Reaffirming a general resistance to crying at weddings
Tomorrow, tomorrow, I'll get you tomorrow, you're only a day away
Referencing the optimism of a new day but with a hint of threat
Tomorrow, tomorrow, I wait for tomorrow to wash all this dirt away
Expressing anticipation for a new day to cleanse away the negativity
I now pronounce you, I now pronounce you, I now pronounce you dead
Declaring a metaphorical pronouncement of the person's demise
Die, die, die, die, die, die, die (at your wedding)
Repeating the word "die" as a strong expression, possibly linked to the wedding
I won't cry (for you)
Refusing to cry for the person at their wedding
You can't do this to me (again)
Rejecting the person's actions and asserting personal boundaries
The guilt will show through
Concluding with a statement about guilt being evident in the situation
