Yo, I ain't seen you in a minute
But I got something to tell you
Listen
See, the thing about you that caught my eye
Is the same thing that makes me change my mind
Kind of hard to explain, but girl, I'll try
You need to sit down, this may take a while
See this girl, she sort of looks just like you
She even smiles just the way you do
So innocent she seemed, but I was fooled
I'm reminded when I look at you
You remind me of a girl that I once knew
See her face whenever I, I look at you
You won't believe all of the things she put me through
This is why I just can't get with you
Thought that she was the one for me
'Til I found out she was on her creep
Ooh, she was sexing everyone, but me
This is why we could never be
You remind me of a girl that I once knew
See her face whenever I, I look at you
You won't believe all of the things she put me through
This is why I just can't get with you
I know it's so unfair to you (it's so unfair)
That I relate her ignorance to you
Wish I knew
Wish I knew how to separate the two
You remind me (you remind me)
Whoa, whoa, oh, oh, oh, oh
You remind me of a girl that I once knew
See her face whenever I, I look at you
You won't believe all of the things she put me through
This is why I just can't get with you (gotta let you go)
You remind me of a girl that I once knew
See her face whenever I, I look at you
You won't believe all of the things she put me through (all the sh*t she put me through)
This is why I just can't get with you, no no
You remind me of a girl that I once knew
See her face whenever I, I look at you
You won't believe all of the things she put me through
This is why I just can't get with you
You remind me of a girl that I once knew
See her face whenever I, I look at you
You won't believe all of the things she put me through
This is why I just can't get with you
You remind me of a girl that I once knew
See her face whenever I, I look at you
You won't believe all of the things she put me through
This is why I just can't get with you
You remind me of a girl that I once knew
See her face whenever I, I look at you
Wouldn't believe all of the things she put me through
This is why I just can't get with you

This song is about a guy who's had his heart broke, and is ready to move on, likes this girl but what he likes about her is the same thing that reminds him of the girl that broke his heart, hence his hesitation...

This is what I can gather from this song.
The Story: Mr. Guy (as we will call him) walks into a bar/club and sees a hot girl (Miss Chick as she will be called). Miss Chick has (just for humour sake) green eyes and brown hair. Despite the fact that Mr. Guy always gets the girls, Miss Chick doesn't seem to have much interest in him. Well she does, but only in a user way. Anyways Mr. Guy is quite p-oed because Miss Chick has been getting overly friendly with every other guy on earth, but him. And quite frankly I'd be p-oed if someone treated me this way as well.
Flash forward to sometime in the near, or not so near future. Mr. Guy sees another girl (who we'll call Miss Lady) with green eyes and brown hair, just as Miss Chick had. Miss Lady and Mr. Guy seem genuinely fond of each other. The problem everytime Mr. Guy sees Miss Lady, he is reminded of Miss Chick who had treated him so poorly. So Mr. Guy tells Miss Lady that they can never be together.
The Moral of The Story: First Mr. Guy has some kind of insecurity issue. Although he loves Miss Lady, he still thinks of how bad Miss Chick treated him. Mr. Guy GET OVER IT! As a women if I were to ignore any man who reminded me of all the asses I've met (and there are a few), well let's just say I'd be a Lesbian. In fact if every women thought this way as Mr. Guy did, well the earth would now be populated only by test tubes. Second it shows that Mr. Guy is quite shallow, he can't seem to focus on what a great person Miss Lady is. The only thing he can think of is "she has green eyes and brown hair as that slu*t that used me did." And maybe it's me, but I find this attitude Mr. Guy has, just as horrible and ignorant as Miss Chick did.

This is a bit difficult to explain. He falls for this girl and then she treats him badly. She uses him and cheats on him. A ways down the road, she comes crawling back and she's changed. He realizes that she's changed and is a whole different person now, but she reminds him too much of the girl she used to be. He can't forget the way she hurt him.

yeah , you know, it could be what fairyinblackandwhite is trying to say, it would make sense, very poetic literaturish if you know what i mean,but i think i'll have to go with the whole'you remind me of a girl i onced liked but got hurt' scenario, and so he's hesitating , but cant ignore the fact he's attracted to the current girl.

Ave Grave Thee More Shallows So this has been.my favorite song of OTEP's since it came out in 2004, and I always thought it was a song about a child's narrative of suffering in an abusive Christian home. But now that I am revisiting the lyrics, I am seeing something totally new. This song could be gospel of John but from the perspective of Jesus. Jesus was NOT having a good time up to and during the crucifixion. Everyone in the known world at the time looked to him with fear, admiration or disgust and he was constantly being asked questions. He spoke in "verses, prophesies and curses". He had made an enemy of the state, and believed the world was increasingly wicked and fallen from grace, or that he was in the "mouth of madness".The spine of atlas is the structure that allows the titan to hold the world up. Jesus challenged the state and in doing so became a celebrated resistance figure. It also made him public enemy #1. All of this happened simply because he was doing his thing, not because of any agenda he had or strategy. And then he gets scourged (storm of thorns)There are some plot holes here but I think it's an interesting interpretation. Siberian Kiss Glassjaw its amazing how far music can come.. 24 years after it released and its one of the most heartfelt songs ive heard Corpse I Fell In Love With Gadjits, The He reuses the verse melody from the previous album's "Dirty Little Religion", the topics of the verses are all over the place, and he packs too many words into one line (goes to show...) and too few in another (it's pretty hard to find), and rhymes "Henley Regatta" with "Persona non grata", but gets away with it all as only he could. Standing On The Edge Of Summer Thursday In regards to the meaning of this song:Before a live performance on the EP Five Stories Falling, Geoff states “It’s about the last time I went to visit my grandmother in Columbus, and I saw that she was dying and it was the last time I was going to see her. It is about realizing how young you are, but how quickly you can go.”That’s the thing about Geoff and his sublime poetry, you think it’s about one thing, but really it’s about something entirely different. But the lyrics are still universal and omnipresent, ubiquitous, even. So relatable. That’s one thing I love about this band. I also love their live performances, raw energy and Geoff’s beautiful, imperfectly perfect vocals. His voice soothes my aching soul.Rate These Lyrics
