yeah...there is a computer game called 'rival schools - united by fate' and music from that game can be found on stuff like kazaa. none of it has anything to do with the actual band though. anyhoo, for the meaning to this song, see my big post above. rock on doops.

the expression "Used For Glue" relates to racehorses. when a horse has reached the end of it's career it is killed and basically turned into glue. therefore it means that no matter how good a racehorse you've been, you're still going to have a shitty future. i'll explain... basically it's about a relationship in which the guy does everything he can think of to make the girl happy, but she never seems happy with him, and he feels that the relationship now will only end in pain, no matter how much he puts into it. he is not himself, acting in a way he wouldn't naturally so that he might please her and her friends, but it still just doesn't work, and he sees it all as his fault. "a sound that can't be still" is something that continues to be heard, so the whole relationship is beginning to come repetitive. all he hears is how unhappy she is, all her friends hear is him grovelling to her, trying to be perfectly something he isn't. "rode when she was new, wasn't told when she was through" once again relates to the titles racehorse connection. when the relationship was new, it was going well but the girl never told him when it started to go badly so he doesn't know what, if anything, he's done wrong. hence why he feels so guilty. ok, that's what i think. hope it made some sense. great song, and it makes sense to me with my meaning. anyways, that's what i think...

i always thought this song was about being a kid in the middle of a break up. he is "used for glue" to keep them together. i never saw the lyrics ritten down. im not a big rival schools fan so i guess u guys r probably right. looking at the rest of the song xpankfrist seems to hav got it better than me great song though!!
