kinda like how the saying is selling your soul to the devil, same idea. a sure way to forget and make the pain go away, but at the cost of death. You see 'begging bury me beside you' is referring to wanting to be next to them in death. ultimately, the only solution is to take the potion which is really poison and join the love one in death. it's about someone losing a spouse or very close gf/bf, and being unable to to live without them. it's not anything to do with drug addiction. Song Meaningsure any song can be open to interpretation, but this song is actually quite simple. Irresistible songs my ears have ever heard.

Ugh, anyone care to help me untangle this?īy the way, this is one of the most beautiful, erotic, soothing, tantalizing, sad, relieving, revealing, addictive, tricky, sneaky, it's almost as if the narrator switches and the "you" mentioned before is replying. Is that the same "you", or is he now directly talking to the devil?Īnd then the chorus. THEN the narrator asks from "you" to take away the misery. The devil helps the narrator forget "you". WHO is the narrator asking to hold their heart and WHO is begging? Is the narrator's heart begging to be buried beside.um."you"? We have a stranger who sees the narrator crumble because "someone" sings "your" name. We have a "someone" who sings the name of the person the narrator refers to as "you". General CommentI'm confused as to how many people are in this story, and who's doing what. more of the same temptations of alcohol/drugs classic drinking your problems away mentality That could take our memory away/help forget I'd ever met you pressure to drink and or do drugs to "feel better" The devil popped around today/selling promises and potions I think the lyric is "Haul my.", but this is where hes internally begging the lost love to take away this main and grow old and die with him. Hold my broken heart and shell away/begging "bury me beside you" Narrator hears someone talking about lost love and breaks down (crumbles) in from of people. Someone sang your name today/and a stranger saw me crumble I think the premise revolves around losing a girl in a relationship to someone else and drowning it away with alcohol/drugs. I agree with cchamberlain that this has to do with alcohol, but it think here is more to it.

It reached the top 50 in many countries, including the United States and The UK, where it peaked at No.24 and No.31 respectively.I just created an account to specifically comment on this song.
