How cruel is the golden rule?
When the lives we lived are only golden-plated
And I knew that the lights of the city were too heavy for me
Though I carried karats for everyone to see
And I saw God cry in the reflection of my enemies
And all the lovers with no time for me
And all of the mothers raise their babies
To stay away from me
Tongues on the sockets of electric dreams
Where the sewage of youth drown the spark of my teens
And I knew that the lights of the city were too heavy for me
(Too heavy for me)
Though I carried karats for everyone to see
(Everyone to see)
And I saw God cry in the reflection of my enemies
And all the lovers with no time for me
And all of the mothers raise their babies
To stay away from me
for hsaiss I think the song is about feeling fake and the lonliness it entails...especially while growing up.The fake bit I figured because he sais "Golden Plated" as in not REAL gold. so people would think he's "Golden" when really he isn't. and then the growing up bit I got from "The sewage of youth drowned the spark of my teens" and then the whole song has a very lonely vibe to it. and that's what I think it is about. how about you? or anyone els?
I absolutly LOVE this song. It shows a more softer side of them. A side without the screaming (not saying that thats not good) or the intense instuments but one that u can listin to at night when ur ready to relax.
This song is so deep. ****I LUV PETE**** lol yeah hoo dont? i mean hes insanely hot and has crazy insane super coolio bass skittles AND he writes killer lyrics AND AND AND i almost 4got ... HES EMO!!! any one who dont like pete... nevermind i wont say anything i dont want to get kicked off of this site too for vulgarness-ness. hey how due ya due those crazy cool lil heart things is it alt and 3?
Wow. This song is surely very different from all their other songs. Aside from the fact that it is rather slow, it's like the song reflects the meaning different. I like it. It sounds great.
I really like this song. It's different from all the other FOB songs, yet it still manages to contain their special quality. The tune is beautiful and the slowness is good in this case. The lyrics are also just plain awesome. 8DD;
luv it luv it luv it ! and if ppl stopped saying its too slow and took the time to really listen to it they would see its really beautiful

I like this song, it's very how can I put it whimsical and different. Which in fact is not a bad thing. In my opinion, bleh I finished my m&m's.=(
