Lyrics
A proposition, what's your position?
A request for your opinion or stance
Like the coils of a snake, we are joined
Comparison to the interconnectedness of snake coils
Tail to head, head to tail
Describing the connection, head to tail, tail to head
Fangs break skin
Violent imagery of fangs breaking skin
Could I have poisoned my best friend?
Concern about harming a close friend unintentionally
I don't care who ends up on top of who
Indifference to the positioning in a relationship
I'm taking the blood from your veins
Metaphorical extraction of life force from someone
Don't complain
Instruction not to protest or express dissatisfaction
When I replace the drain you won't be the same
Promise of change after replacing something draining
I don't care who ends up on top of who
Reiteration of indifference to relationship dynamics
Mutant lover mi amor especial
Expression of love for a mutated or unconventional lover
A proposition, what's your position?
A repetition of the initial proposition, seeking a response
Wrestling on the porch outside
Depiction of physical struggle outside, possibly playfully
A figure four, we play too vicious
Reference to a wrestling move and acknowledging vicious play
I'm eating you cause you're nutritious
Metaphorically consuming the partner as if nutritious
I don't care who now there's something you must choose
Emphasizing the importance of a decision to be made
Mutant lover, mi amor, a mutant
Reiteration of love for a mutated or unconventional lover
But there is the question of incurable heartbreak
Acknowledgment of the challenge of unhealable emotional pain
In shambles
Description of a state of emotional destruction
Incurable heartbreak
Repetition of the idea of unhealable heartbreak
Broken records
Symbolic representation of repeating emotional pain
Incurable heartbreak
Continued emphasis on incurable heartbreak
Vacant lots
Reference to empty, desolate spaces as a metaphor
Incurable heartbreak
Reiteration of the concept of unhealable heartbreak
Unemptied ashtrays
Symbolism of neglected, discarded remnants of emotions
Incurable heartbreak
Continued emphasis on incurable heartbreak
In piles
Depiction of emotional pain accumulating in piles
Incurable heartbreak
Reiteration of the concept of unhealable heartbreak
On the floor
Description of emotional pain scattered on the floor
Incurable heartbreak
Continued emphasis on incurable heartbreak
A kiss, a touch behind closed doors
Reference to intimate moments behind closed doors
I'm taking the blood from your veins
Metaphorical extraction of life force, repetition from line 7
You won't be the same
Assurance of transformation after extracting blood
I'm taking the blood from your veins
Repetition of the metaphorical blood extraction
Don't complain
Instruction not to express dissatisfaction during the process
