Hawthorne Heights: Ohio is for Lovers Meaning
Song Released: 2004
Ohio is for Lovers Lyrics
I know it's hard to feel like I don't care at all.
Where you are and how you feel.
With these lights of as these wheels
Keep going on and on (and on and on and on)
Slow things down or speed them up,
Not enough or way too much,...

yea uhhh.. you gotta remember that bands have to write a lot of songs and not every single word has to have significant meaning to the song, sometimes they just have parts of the song that fill gaps or make it sound better and shit.. also they will say things that correspond with the genre or general theme of their music, like 'cut my wrists and black me eyes' is related to the whole new "emocore" genre.. This is obviously debatable.

Personally I love hawthorne heights.But this song is def about heartbreak of being on the road and missing their girls..Read the lyric book
-
Yes, I think this song is about how the guys miss their girlfriends that are still in ohio. And how their girlfriends are saying they won't wait forever for them, pretty much.

Its seriously not rocket science. It says so right in the cover of their first cd, this song is exactly how it sounds, they wrote it because they were traveling so much and working so hard on getting their cd out and they missed their g/f's because their g/f's were in ohio while hawthorne heights was not.... "Hey there I know its hard to feel like I don't care at all" its obviously hard to keep in touch with their g/f's and I'm sure their g/f's felt like they didn't care enough to keep in touch more, so there you have it, they wrote it because they missed their g/f's...plain and simple

Well it's about the members of the band all at the same time getting in a fight with all there girlfriends while recording the silence in black in white and it's their girlfriends that live in Ohioh. Te line "so cut my wrist and black my eyes are a figure of speech". and if you don't believe me, it's all in the cd booklet you get with the cd.

I don't know if it's about a love/hate relationship like the 2nd interpreter said. I think it's more like the narrator loves this girl so much and can't live without her, and would rather die than live without her. He feels guilty that he leaves and wants her to love him back.The girl, on the other hand, is tired of waiting and will only wait so long (I'll wait for you. But I won't wait forever.) The band has said many times that they are against suicide. The *cut my wrists and black my eyes* line is in a figurative sense. He is afraid he'll lose her, but he doesn't know what to do about it. He'd rather die than lose her. Tell me what you think- crossfadebomber@adelphia.net

The band was on a tour for a really long time, while their girlfriends stayed in ohio. The Girlfriends started to get upset and yeah. And " So cut my wrist and black my eyes" isn't about suicide, its just a figurative speech, they are totally against suicide, look in the slip in the Cd

The part "spare me just three last words, I love you is all she heard, ill wait for you but I can't wait forver" I think is ment to represent a special girl and how the boys (Hawthorne Heights) are always on tour and the girl is saying that she will wait but not forever.... and with that the bit "I can't make it on my own, 'cause my heart is in Ohio." I think that it actually means that they left behind there heart aka that girl in their home town in Ohio.

Hawthorne Heights is from Ohio, and this song is about missing their friends and families while they are are the road. The references to wheels rolling is just about their tour bus driving them around. The first line "Hey there, I know it's hard to feel like I don't care at all" and the rest of the first verse are about the guilt of abandoning their loved ones, and it serves to assure them that they really do care.
The first part of the chorus is simple. "I can't make it on my own because my heart is in Ohio" is just saying that they hate being alone and wish that they were back in Ohio with their loved ones. The second part is much more confusing because it is violent. "So cut my wrists and black my eyes. So I can fall asleep tonight, or die. Because you kill me. You know you do, you kill me well. You like it too, and I can tell. You never stop until my final breath is gone." I think that they just dramatize it to make a better song. The first two lines are just saying that they need to forget about the people they've left behind in order to survive away from them and to go to sleep without feeling terrible about leaving. It is not a person that is killing them, but rather their guilt.
