	Love this song - it got me into the wonderful world of VAST. As others have said before I think it's about a fucked up obsessive relationship that's gone beyond the point of reason.

	Hmmm someone entered the lyrics wrong up there. It's 'and the moon gives me permission'. Heheh.

	This song is pretty dark...It reminds me of all those guys who are charming but just want you for your body and who really don't understand or care about the emotional toll that a meaningless physical relationship can take on a person...and that's all I have to say about that!

	I wish I wrote this song. I love it!

	I've been the girl in this song. Where a guy lies to get what he wants 'didnt really love you but im pretty when i lie' and what he wants is sex, and he doesnt really care who with, he just wants the power and to be in control and in the position to say hes done it 'didnt want to fuck you but youre pretty when youre mine' and ofcourse, when she cries, he likes that she loves him so much and it goes to his big head that someone loves him. yeah i've been there :\|

	This was always one of my most favorite songs of VASTs' not sure why. Maybe 'cause i had a simalar relationship, didn't know where lust was ending and love was beginning. Then after reading psyonides entry, it made more sense why i liked it, I had some depresson issues, so maybe i felt like the girl. who knows.

	i personally thought it was about the dangerous obsessive nature of relationships..the whole love/hate angle...but then, vasts songs are, i think, deliberately ambigious....

Lucas Average	#9 by Lucas Grizzle at Dec 18, 1991 at 12:27 AM EST
	what are your opinions on this song? it sounds like its about him having sex with a virgin...but i have a feeling it may hold an even deeper meaning with the "pretty when you cry/pretty when i lie" lines

No Picture FUCK Average	#10 by FUCK at May 6, 1994 at 6:31 PM EST
	this girl is "made of his sin" she was probably completly in love with him, and he used this aginst her to have sex with him. now he's telling her that he only used her for a one night thing...and that although she is beautiful, he never really loved her..he gets off on using and abusin people. it could be saying how the idea of love and sex are no longer married

Keely Average	#11 by Keely at Aug 11, 1994 at 4:36 PM EST
	It's not just about the sex. it's much more than that, it's about being abusive to someone and enjoying him being your victim, and not just sexually, also emotionally. he is clearly getting his kicks from hurting her and the thing is, that she likes it just as much as he does since she stays with him. it seems like this couple is dependent and feeds on pain. love and hate relatioship indeed.

lauren Lead Player	#12 by lauren desantis at Aug 25, 1994 at 8:58 AM EST
	This is a great song, one of my favorites. If you pay close enough attention to the lyrics you see that the one singing does in fact love the person he's singing about. He says that he doesn't love her and he lies. He treats her badly and says those things because that's what she wants from him. If he let her know how much he really loved and cared for her she would leave. It's a twisted relationship. All of this is apparent in the following lines: "If you knew how much I loved you, you would run away But when I treat you bad it always makes you want to stay."

	Maybe regret for having sex too early?
