Lyrics
Fear as friend I wish I'd never kissed;
Fear is regretted as a companion, a choice the speaker wishes they hadn't made.
Faded hand to mouth as catalyst.
Using substances as a coping mechanism, with a hand-to-mouth motion as the trigger.
Technicolored static sender,
A sender of chaotic and vibrant signals, possibly reflecting inner turmoil.
Secondguess my love for danger.
Doubting one's affection for risk or thrill.
Bold-face it with a hand of 10 by 10.
Confronting a challenging situation with a confident and determined demeanor.
Turn the cooling card
Turning over a metaphorical "cooling card," revealing vulnerability or truth.
And show your hand to me.
Openly displaying one's intentions or emotions to the speaker.
Hands up, past time for both of us to see.
It's overdue for both parties to acknowledge or confront the situation.
Clothes and match were pulled straight from my bed.
Personal items, possibly symbolic, taken from the speaker's intimate space.
Fatal weather rolls around my head.
An ominous atmosphere surrounding the speaker, a sense of impending trouble.
Burned the place down to the ground now,
Metaphorically destroying a place, possibly a relationship, to its foundations.
And crazy head singed up this town;
The speaker, in a disturbed state, has influenced or disturbed the town.
Marked it with a blackened boldface T.
Marking the consequences with a bold declaration, possibly regret or acknowledgment.
Since I've got myself an easy job,
The speaker has an uncomplicated job but has lost something valuable, perhaps integrity.
Money passed behind and now I'm robbed.
Money changing hands has led to a sense of being deceived or robbed.
Sold away my rights forever
The speaker has relinquished their rights permanently, perhaps in exchange for something appealing.
To something that was multi-splendored.
A sarcastic reference to giving up something splendid for something less desirable.
I'll pass up the decision once again.
Choosing to avoid making a decision once again, possibly due to the consequences faced.
