This is the moment that you know
That you told her that you loved her but you don't
You touch her skin and then you think
That she is beautiful but she don't mean a thing to me
Yeah, she is beautiful but she don't mean a thing to me
I spent two weeks in Silver Lake
The California sun cascading down my face
There was a girl with light brown streaks
And she was beautiful but she didn't mean a thing to me
Yeah, she was beautiful but she didn't mean a thing to me
I wanted to believe in all the words that I was speaking
As we moved together in the dark
And all the friends that I was telling all the playful misspellings
And every bite I gave you left a mark
Tiny vessels oozed into your neck
And formed the bruises
That you said you didn't want to fade
But they did, and so did I that day
All I see are dark gray clouds
In the distance moving closer with every hour
So when you ask, "Is something wrong?"
I think, "You're damn right there is but we can't talk about it now
No, we can't talk about it now"
So one last touch and then you'll go
And we'll pretend that it meant something so much more
But it was vile, and it was cheap
And you are beautiful but you don't mean a thing to me
Yeah, you are beautiful but you don't mean a thing to me
So one last touch and then you'll go
And we'll pretend that it meant something so much more
But it was vile, and it was cheap
And you are beautiful but you don't mean a thing to me
Yeah, you are beautiful but you don't mean a thing to me

This is such a beautiful song. It's about being "in love" with someone but you know really aren't. You know you don't really want to lose her, but she doesn't mean anything to you-just another pretty face. You bragged about her and texted her and gave her hickeys. She didn't want them to fade because it marked a memory of their "love" but you wanted it to because there is no memory of love. And once those faded so did you.
