Lyrics
Get over yourself.
Encouragement to overcome self-centeredness or self-importance.
You'll find me under your skin
Symbolic language indicating a deep presence or influence in someone's life.
This is you being selfishâ?¦
Pointing out someone's selfish behavior or attitude.
This is you feeling sorry for yourself,
Noticing self-pity or feelings of regret within someone.
And if not, you're kidding yourself
Suggesting that denying these emotions is self-deception.
It started off from the get go.
Referring to the beginning of a situation or relationship.
I'll kill to remember and you'll drink to forget.
Memory retention contrasted with trying to forget through alcohol.
But it's just your tongue you'll choke on,
Warning that speaking too quickly will lead to mistakes.
If you speak any faster!
Advising caution in communication to avoid errors.
It's just as easy to rip a piece off.
Expressing the ease of causing harm or damage.
I'll write all your lies off
Rejecting or disregarding someone's falsehoods or deceit.
And I don't really care what you wear on your sleeve.
Indifference towards someone's outward display of emotions or intentions.
Did you really think
Questioning someone's awareness or perception of reality.
(That you had hidden the pillow)
Suggesting concealment or hiding of guilt or wrongdoing.
That covered the weapon,
Symbolizing a hidden means of causing harm or pain.
(The knife that cut?)
Connecting an object (knife) to an action of causing harm.
I'm still in hiding
Stating a personal state of being in concealment or secrecy.
(And you're still kidding yourself.)
Implies continued self-deception or denial in someone.
Speak up. Speak up.
Direct command to someone to speak up or voice their thoughts.
Am I you're easy way out?
Questioning if the person is someone's easy solution or escape.
You must be kidding yourself. You must be kidding,
Asserting that believing in being an easy solution is self-deception.
Just as easy as to rip out this silver from under your skin,
Metaphorically suggesting the ease of extracting something deeply embedded.
It's just your tongue you'll choke on.
Reiterating the warning that speaking hastily will result in mistakes.
(You will always drink to forget.)
Stating a habitual behavior of using alcohol to forget.
